I'm excited for some SimCity 2000!

This is the SC2k installer running on Wine on my Linux Mint laptop. It's from the Windows 95 version of the game, which uses a 32-bit exe for the game but a 16-bit exe for the installer.

It's a 16-bit app running in a 32-bit Wine process proxied through Wine's upgraded 64-bit WoW64 stack.

It can't be installed with the installer on Windows anymore because 64-bit Windows has removed all 16-bit support and Windows 11 is 64-bit only!

The game also runs great minus the MIDI music, still working on that in my prefix.
