Etherlords 2 is using a wrong executable

[Zlopez]

Hi,

I recently tried playing Etherlords 2 in Minigalaxy using wine and found out that it's actually not starting the correct executable. I was able to track the issue here. The game is missing the .goggame- file and uses the first .exe it can found, which in this case is config.exe.

BTW Minigalaxy is an awesome project. Keep up the good work :-)

Thanks for the report. Could you please provide list of files in the main install directory of this game, so we can adjust to it?

Here is the output of ls -lah in the directory.
