(Seanstoppable)I had the same problem with the Fallout 2 Hi Res patch today.Solution: download the dll from here and place it in .wine/drive_c/windows/system to get rid of that error and be able to successfully apply the patch.

I had to:

cd ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/GOG.com/Fallout

ln -s ../../../windows/system/msvcp60.dll



hope that helps someone and I don't know why it wasn't working just inside system



Okay, got a solution, though it's not pretty. I refuse to refine it.First off, PlayOnLinux. I can't recommend it enough for this purpose. However, it won't succeed by itself. You must use it to install and manage an older version of Wine. I'm using 1.2.2, which is "certifiably old" as the folks in #winehq (freenode) said, because I know it works. Feel free to fine tune this, but there's a real possibility you're using this strictly for one program anyway.Once you've told Fallout to work with Wine 1.2.2 (or whichever one you're using), you should be set to go.Modding is where things get interesting.Now, I ended up messing about quite a bit with this before I got it working. I installed the 1.2 and fallup13 patches, then the resolution patch. The trouble with the resolution patch is it didn't seem to take. (For one thing, it made both a Falloutw and a falloutw. The functioning one in my folder is with a lower case f, not an upper case.) An attempt to reinstall it noted it was already installed, though, as per the readme.Looked the matter up on Google and found the following:Modify accordingly:cd .PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/Fallout_gog/drive_c/GOG\ Games/Falloutln -s ../../../../../../.wine/drive_c/windows/system/msvcp60.dllI have no idea what that just did, but it did it.
