Created wineprefix as win32, installed that vc2008 through winetricks - got no errors.
Installed GTA SA, got no errors.
Then installed MTA and it required that vc2008 thing during the installation, though it's installed, lol.
Installed it too, got no errors again.
But when trying to run MTA, still get that 22 error code.
Wanted to see some people connected with the development opinions, but as I see they're not really interested in supporting Linux players.
Should we report to MTA bugtracker?..
Okay, reported!
Looking through the bug report, as well as your thread, it seems that this bug has something to do with Ubuntu 12.04. Perhaps this is worth posting on the Ubuntu forums?

Try installing the Visual C++ redists inside the wine "bottle", usually its missing some redists or files and fails to run.
I tried installing C++ 2008 to the Wine bottle through Wine bottle management (wibom) but it didn't seem to help. Perhaps I should be installing it some other way? Would you happen to know what files C++ 2008 consists of though? I could go into the file system and check if they're present.

I have no other suggestions right now,
Let's hope someone else has something for you.
(Last Try: Try reinstalling Wine and Winetricks)
Tried reinstalling both of them, still got the same issue. Guess I'll wait till someone else picks up on this thread, thanks for trying!

I've looked into Whine's site and found some results:
Thanks for the effort, but I went through Wine's site myself earlier and haven't found any working solution yet.
-
wait, Have you tried restarting your computer?
Yes I have, to no avail.
-
hm, try turning your firewall off.
Sometime these firewalls block programs that connects to the internet.
Tried that, still not working unfortunately.
-
oh, sorry, What's your Security Program?
like Firewall?
My firewall is the default firewall provided by Ubuntu: ufw (Uncomplicated Firewall). It has no rules set at the moment though. I don't have an anti-virus at the moment because I'm not terribly worried about the very few Linux viruses that exist (Though I am debating installing one in the future).
Edit: As for those drivers, there are no official Intel or MSI drivers for Linux, but I recently reinstalled my NVIDIA drivers, with no result.
-
Sorry about that,
Are you running it on Administrator?
There is no such option in Ubuntu, and running Wine as a superuser (Sort of Linux' equivalent) through Terminal is not possible, in fact all it does is muck up the permissions for the Wine directory.

hmmm, now try reinstalling MTA 1.3
The MTA you linked to is a server copy. However, I reinstalled the client (After reinstalling Wine 1.4) and it still isn't working.
-
Try reinstalling Wine 1.4
Following the instructions on that page updated it to 1.5.2 (Development release) but MTA still doesn't run. I'll try a simple reinstall of 1.4 just in case, but I don't see that working either frankly.

Can you run GTA Single Player on your OS?
As I said in the original post, yes, GTA: San Andreas single player works just fine when running under Wine 1.4.

MTADiag works under Wine, so here's the log:
MTADiag v 2.2 by Towncivilian MTA path: Z:\media\531C1353E752EF64\Games\MTA San Andreas Old MTA version: 1.3.0-9.04037.0.000 MTA version: 1.3.0-9.04037.0.000 GTA path: Z:\media\531C1353E752EF64\Games\GTA San Andreas D3D9.dll present: No DirectX up-to-date: Yes Can't open C:\users\igoor\Temp\dxdiag.log tasklist >:
I can't draw any meaningful conclusions from it, but maybe someone else can. However, it should be noted that at first it said DirectX was out-of-date and directed me to the updater, which wouldn't work, and it was unable to create a log once I exited the updater. I then checked off another DirectX .dll in Winetricks and MTADiag reported it as up-to-date, outputting that log. But the .dll now appears to be deselected in Winetricks.

Check this forum: viewtopic.php?f=15&t=42765
Oh I didn't notice that thread when searching, my bad. However, there doesn't appear to be any solution there, but the last post might be on to something, perhaps it's a C++ issue. I recall that the MTA setup installs C++ 2008, so maybe that isn't working for whatever reason?

Recently, I made the switch to Ubuntu from Windows, as Windows was causing a whole world of trouble. Now I'd like to get MTA 1.3 working. I've heard a number of people have managed to get it working, but mine will not function for some reason.
I installed it under Wine v1.4, but on startup, a grey box appears, then it closes and nothing starts. I have tried a number of solutions, in no particular order:
-Installing DirectX files through Winetricks (No d3d9.dll in the SA folder however)
-Installing allfonts through Winetricks
-Running MTADiag (Through Wine, it updated MTA)
-Deleting the gta_sa.set
-Installing C++ 2010, 2008, and 2005 through Winetricks (However, I got an error at the end of one of their installations saying that a .dll file was not found)
-Running Wine in Windows XP, Vista and 7 mode, as well as Virtual Desktop mode
Singleplayer works just fine, as does SA:MP 0.3d R2. I'm running on Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit with the latest updates. And my computer specs, if at all important, are as follows:
CPU: Intel i7 2600K (Overclocked @ 4.2GHz)
GFX: NVIDIA GTX 560 Ti 1GB
Motherboard: MSI Z68A-GD55 (B3)
RAM: 8GB DDR3
Perhaps I'm missing some Winetricks add-ons? Maybe one of them didn't install properly? Any advice would be appreciated, thanks in advance!
Edit: If it helps, I tried running MTA through Terminal in the main folder with the command "wine MultiTheftAuto.exe" and I got this error:
fixme:ole:CoInitializeSecurity ((nil),-1,(nil),(nil),0,3,(nil),0,(nil)) - stub! fixme:wbemprox:wbem_locator_ConnectServer 0x13f200, L"ROOT\\CIMV2", (null), (null), (null), 0x00000000, (null), (nil), 0x32f880) err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization for L"Z:\\media\\531C1353E752EF64\\Games\\GTA San Andreas\\gta_sa.exe" failed, status c0000022

Great, the command fixed it. Thanks a bunch!
