I heard that px works for some in wine, but here it just creates the log file, but then there's nothing of it.
I can do some debugging session if you like.

Hi. What's the pxlog.txt file content? also, did you launch PX updater before playing(latest one, from PX downloading link)? and, does PX create its folders structure? (Libs\Network, PXSchemes\Network\, PX\Fonts\ etc)

yes it does everything. It looks like the main thread dies at a certain point (silently caught a fatal exception?), because px_errors.txt is empty after quitting normally. Here's pxlog.txt

Code:
Log started

Project X! Version : 0.8.0.3100

for WA 3.6.31.0

WormKit Module

Unlocked code region

Unlocked data region

Loading from : px3d.dll

PX3D library loaded and binded

Cleaning old render

Cleaning old render VFT

Precision :  Double

Round Mode :  Nearest



EDIT:
it was my fault. but PX is very unstable in wine, and causes even the X system to crash (!). So, it would be nicer if you manage to get it work good in virtualbox. as of now, it displays a black screen after the intro.

I would like to add VirtualBox compatibility, but i don't know how. There is a way to switch to OpenGL instead of Direct3d, that would help with Wine compatibility, i think, but :?

I think that it's not your piece of software that needs compatibility, but the WA frontend. I tried to playback a replay without wormkit and with guest additions, and it works, but it freezes with a black-screen at exit: this last issue must be related with my host, it happens pretty often...
I want to try the same with px and windowed mode, but I don't have that specific version of directx that pxd3.dll asks for, can you link it to the generic one (d3dx9.dll)? I don't want to update my directx also, because I think that that would mess with my guest addition installation. Also, you would get rid of all the people asking about the same error :)

If it turns up that it's only the front-end that is not working well with virtualbox, then well you got another reason to spend half an our in creating a simple gui (I bet you know everything about game initialization, so that must be easy to implement).
