I believe you are not specifying the correct path for your application. Rift online is most likely not installed in your system32 folder (where is where wine will search by default if no absolute path is specified).

Check where it is installed on your virtual hard drive (C:) and type in that path

For Example:

optirun wine "C:program files

iftpatch

iftpatchlive.exe"

Also if you are using bumblebee, i would suggest you install also primusrun (it is included with the same ppa you installed bumblebee with). Primusrun gives much better performance than using the optirun command and often solves problems that would be present using optirun.

sudo apt-get install primus

Then run the command with primusrun.

primusrun wine "C:program files

iftpatch

iftpatchlive.exe"
