Is there anyone out there that can get this fully working?

I can get it working except when I launch stars it doesn't open my turn. It just says:

Can't open file .


Then dumps me at the starts menu screen.

See log:

[(10:10:30) warning] Running /home/user/Stars/stars.exe /home/user/Stars/beg.m4 -p  
[(10:10:30) warning]      from /home/user/Stars


I tried following the FAQ suggestion to put the path to stars as a bash script to launch stars using wine but I get the exact same issue.

I noticed that if I run this from the shell I get the same problem. The issue is that it only works if I don't use the full path.

i.e.
/home/user/Stars/stars.exe beg.m4

not
/home/user/Stars/stars.exe /home/user/Stars/beg.m4


I've tried leaving it blank which I fully expected to work, but I get this instead.

[(10:46:35) warning] Running /home/user/Stars/stars.exe /beg.m4 -p  
[(10:46:35) warning]      from /home/user/Stars
[(10:46:35) warning] java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "/home/user/Stars/stars.exe" (in directory ""): error=2, No such file or directory


In which case Stars doesn't run at all...

Edit: I suspect that /beg.m4 tries to launch the game from '/'. I tried creating a hard-link in / to test but it still doesn't launch. I think this is a bug/compatability issue. Just wanted to check.
