I am New to Ubuntu, But will not turn away from Windows if i cannot resolve this one issue. I am trying to get the Launcher to work so i can play in an Ubuntu environment. I have installed WINE, and the dotnet2 environment. When i try to launch , it tells me "path not found" Please help!

You might take a look at this thread. Or try searching on Linux and Launcher, as there are several threads on this subject.

Also, the "hardcore" people most able to help you with Linux stuff is in the "Gameplay and Technical Issues" forum. At least one person that, as I recall, has been workinghard at getting Linux/CoH to work is Se Jaist - havent seen a post recently in here but he has always been more of a G&T issue forumite.

That's Je Saist, just so it doesn't confuse him if he searches.

For the OP, no, the launcher does not work in WINE (etc,) but someone came up with a script (and a few dependancies) which will update and launch the game.

You can also check this thread if you haven't already.

There was one poster in that thread that reported it could work on 11.10.
