This is how I am trying to start the Win32 Client, and its not working for me.

wine -- FAH4Console.exe -advmethods -forcesse

This is the error that I am getting. How do I pass two arguments to this client? Also what is a safe way to close it down? Shut the konsole window?

I need to get this fixed before I go to sleep, I am about to pass out on the keyboard.

Code:
[fishy@localhost f@h]$ wine -- FAH4Console -advmethods -forcsse
fixme:console:SetConsoleCtrlHandler (0x407b05,1) - no error checking
or testing yet

If you look closely, you'll see that your command is probably correct, but that you spelled -forcesse as -forcsse.

I fixed the spelling and it still does not want to work.
 
It worked fine for me.

This is the cut and paste commands I used after I downloaded window console clients

chmod +x FAH4Console.exe
nice wine -- FAH4Console.exe -advmethods -forceSSE

Try it and see if it work.
nice in front of wine is to lower the priority for the folding jobs
