but the lobby will not start (this is the main problem)

I get that the first time I run TASClient.exe. Try to close all the popup errors and then close the main error. It shouldn't happen after you setup your account information.

I don't think you need to sudo to run it. I'd suggest removing all spring info from the registry as that error you get (window size -39) may be some borked settings in the registry.
I don't know how to clear wine registry, but i know how to clear all wine stuff:
That "rm -rf" is a powerful command, make sure you get that line right.
Also, try to run the windows lobby TASClient.exe on a writable partition. If you're running it straight from the windows ntfs partition, it will probably be mounted read-only and i don't know if the lobby likes that.
I have no problems running the lobby in wine and what i did was to download the full windows spring installer and run it with wine, installing the lobby in
~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Spring
And then i just run the lobby from the KDE start menu (wine puts it there).

Run regedit from the shell, find TASpring and remove it. Lobby will start fine. Configure it (don't forget to set 'show all windows' or sth like that) and close it. Run regedit again and export TASpring key. Next time simply run regedit exported.reg and you're done; don't forget to kill all TASpring processes (wineserver, TASClient.exe.)
The above works for me. It's a chore; hollowsoul - we're counting on you :)
