It is a WINE problem :)

Here is the culprit:

trace:virtual:VIRTUAL_SetProt 0x462000-0x4e7fff c-rW-
trace:virtual:VIRTUAL_DumpView View: 0x400000 - 0x57bfff (anonymous)
trace:virtual:VIRTUAL_DumpView       0x400000 - 0x400fff c-r--
trace:virtual:VIRTUAL_DumpView       0x401000 - 0x449fff c-r-x
trace:virtual:VIRTUAL_DumpView       0x44a000 - 0x57bfff c-rW-

This covers the 0x00495000 address. Note that the area lacks the x-bit.

What is happening is likely the copy protection. The original loader is
likely executable, but the copyprotection decrypts the code in a datasection
and then executes it.

Could you please do:
        winedump dump -x war3.exe
and put it somewhere/attach it here?

Ciao, Marcus
