GAMEDIR/src/SYSTEM/Blacklist.ini has

[InitVideo]
Video[0]=Logo_Ubisoft.bik

Which can be overwritten to avoid wasting time on logos

Seems that winetricks exits prematurely, but the wrapper still works

Using ed instead of sed

<greybot> Some sed(1)s have -i which claims to "modify" files. It does not: sed is not a FILE editor. The -i flag re-writes the entire file and replaces the original with the new. This breaks open handles and hard-link sets, and fails to follow symlinks. -i is also unportable: valid sed on one system will write broken files on another. Use ed(1) or ex(1) instead: eg. ex -sc '%s/a/b/|wq' file
