Wine+Winetricks trouble

Hi folks,
I'm trieing to improve my FPS , running a game with wine (Ragnarok Online, french client), but i can't get winetricks installing Direct X and vcrun6.
I've set up wine with 32bit prefix, executed winetricks, but everytime i get this error:

[rayz0r@odin ~]$ winetricks
Executing wget -O directx_feb2010_redist.exe -nd -c --read-timeout=300 --retry-connrefused --header Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate http://download.microsoft.com/download/E/E/1/EE17FF74-6C45-4575-9CF4-7FC2597ACD18/directx_feb2010_redist.exe
directx_feb2010_redist.exe: Keine Berechtigung
------------------------------------------------------
Note: command 'wget -O directx_feb2010_redist.exe -nd -c --read-timeout=300 --retry-connrefused --header Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate http://download.microsoft.com/download/E/E/1/EE17FF74-6C45-4575-9CF4-7FC2597ACD18/directx_feb2010_redist.exe' returned status 1.  Aborting.
------------------------------------------------------

The output is german ,  "Keine Berechtigung" means no authorization.
When I run it as root, it works , but installs in my root directory, when i specify my users directory it won't cuz root does not own my dir.

When i manually run wget there are no errors, dunno why im not able to run it through winetricks.

Sorry if this is the wrong section, I'm kind a new arch user and didn't now where to post it else.

Re: Wine+Winetricks trouble

I guess something went wrong when installing winetricks.. did you compile it on your own or have you installed via pacman? Have you checked ugo-permissions of `which winetricks`?

Re: Wine+Winetricks trouble

I've downloaded the script manually and trie to install with pacman, everytime the same error.
I've allready tried chmod 777 winetricks, but without success...

Re: Wine+Winetricks trouble

just purge it, than reinstall. 

which wine do you use, the one from archlinuxfr or in mulitlib?
what kind of architecture do you have?

Re: Wine+Winetricks trouble

I have a x86_64 Arch and first used the one from multilib, then i compiled the latest stable by my self.
