It is possible to run Ship Simulator Extremes within a sandboxed environment, eg. in Sandboxie?

[Markus97]

Anyone?

As far as I'm aware its possible. However, Im curious as to why you want/need to run SSE in a "controlled enviroment"?

Because I want to control what SSE have access to read/write, just for sure. I, also, want to be sure that all files are on my HDD (I have a SDD I don't want to have bad files on). And it's easy to "uninstall" it, too. I just need to delete the content in the sandbox and then I'm sure all it's gone (including registry keys).

Will it work fine with Wine (yes, otherwise I must run Windows 7 in a virtual machine)?

Please do not use words like that please

Nothing works fine with wine!

I tried SS08 in Wine once and it wouldn't run at all (I think it was a Fedora install, but possibly Ubuntu, before I realised how rubbish Ubunutu Linux in general was)

Ubuntu is actually really good, but I actually run Debian. Maybe you tried an old version of Wine? Actually the beta (1.3) is a lot better than the stable one (1.2).

I didn't work, only a lot of DLL-errors. And yes, I run it as administrator.

I actually tested in Sandboxie on dualboot (yes, I installed Windows 7 just for Ship Simulator).
