I was recently made aware of an awesome utility called Wineskin Winery that creates portable Wine 'containers' for Windows games and applications. JJ2 and JCS didn't work out of the box using Wineskin Winery, but after much tweaking and one weird DLL hack, the port I'm about to release was born!

I'm sure you've all noticed by now that I haven't posted the download links today. Rest assured, I'm extremely close and hope to on Sunday (May 4th). The actual port is working just fine and I've ironed out the last-minute bugs prior to release. Now that I'm ready to distribute all the hard work, I'm encountering a rather stupid problem with the actual installer. I think I've already figured out how to fix it though, so that shouldn't cause much of a delay.
