Yeah, I think that's the one.
Just checked my Steam install folder for the "Win 7 64 bit" prefix (aka bottle), and I did indeed patch it with the generic 4gb patch.
Just ran a quick test, at the terminal type: wine 4gb_patch.exe sh4.exe
I had the file manager (Dolphin in KDE) open so I could see the changes as they happened...
4gb_patch.exe made a copy of sh4.exe named sh4.exe.Backup, then patched sh4.exe
I tried running SH4 and it kept complaining about missing .dll files, so... I'm reinstalling SH4.
I modded that one several times and I might have had issues.
Plus, it'll re-install directx, etc. since it will technically be the "first run", so that might fix it.
I've had this Steam install for a few years, occasionally Wine seems to 'reset' a prefix when it upgrades.
I'll post up how it goes once I've had a chance to test both un-patched and patched SH4.
EDIT: It's still complaining (and including some of the SH4 game files), so I'm trying my 32bit Win7 (formerly XP) install of the Windows Steam client.
