Thank you for this!
If I can get EQ running in WINE, I am going to do the same thing with Eve Online and will need two separate installations. So I am in that boat lol. Do you have any tips for this?

Bah, you're going to make me work now ) You need a seperate instance of WINE. To me it looks like the easiest thing to do is do a base install of wine via
sudo apt-get install wine
to run whatever will run with the default (which has the benefit of getting updated when your system does) then make a special install of WINE per game that needs mods. Easiest way to do that is do the configure run with something like:
configure --prefix=$HOME/wine/wine-1.2eq
configure --prefix=$HOME/wine/wine-1.2eve
etc.
Then in the script that runs the app, set $PATH to $HOME/wine/wine-1.2eq/bin:$PATH and you should be set. As long as the new WINE folder is IN FRONT of the PATH it'll run the custom WINE.
