Linux & Uo - soMa - 02-27-2012
I am currently fixing my computer as my other one blew up !
Since my other system is linux and refuse to use windows or mac (evil) Im currently figureing this out and am almost complete *crosses fingers in hopes it works*
I will Replace this with a guide on how to get it to work on linux which is pretty basic useing whine. (or ill just type out all the problems I go through and fixes I find)
If anyone has any questions about how to get it going do not hesitate to ask and do so here or pm me.
Start here for wine - http://www.winehq.org/download/
Do not run wine as root

When i first joined here i was using wine on linux for a while but it gave me trouble with razor and eventually I just installed windows which gives no trouble at all. i like linux too but imo why run a windows emulator to play a game when u can just use the real thing? Then again, if you can get razor to work properly with wine then more power to you

Ahaha! Good luck. Feel free to vent and rage about how F***ing winetricks refuses to install the appropriate .NET packages. You can get the client running easy. Same with the patcher. Problem is the last time I tried it, Winetricks could NOT install .NET 3.5 or higher. That may have changed though. What I finally ended up doing is downloading VMWare and throwing TinyXP on that. Very low CPU/RAM usage and it's enough to run UO just fine. The screen size sucks though unless you constantly fiddle with it.

Im all over the place now, Injection errors are fixed and it was not running with no errors which i found od but the client wouldn't log in it would crash. Which I asume is because I don't have the .netframework which framework do I need ?

Im going to try and install 3.5 which that link says it will work with using winetricks.
now im figureing out how to use winetricks.

Installation by using 'winetricks' script
Winetricks will take care of all needed installation prerequisites and work around some problems.*
$ wget http://winetricks.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/src/winetricks
*$ bash winetricks dotnet35*
For a fully silent install (no gui) use following command:
$ bash winetricks -q dotnet35*
This is currently where i am at, the website http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManage...sion&iId=10166 explains it.
*Taps foot this takes forever*
Once it is installed it suggests to install service pack 1 with it not sure if I will
So it failed to run .net w/e optimization interface so im not to sure why that is and will be installing service pack 1 .netframework 3.5
Error ocured while trying to install service pack 1 retrying again. (would not give me details as to why stupid windows)
After several failed try's Im assuming it's because I installed the framework3.5 before installing the framework 3.5 + SP1.
Now im trying to figure out how to delete it and start from scratch.

It's nice to see someone going through the same struggle I did.

typed out a really long nasty paragraph about windows and then stoped cuz it sounded to hurtful towards the people who just want to hit the on button and go on facebook.
(windows & Mac are for the user's who want to waste money on products and new OS updates) as a last resort i will dl windows and crack it then cry my self to sleep.

You can play UO through wine, you just can't change any of razor's settings, nor have other profiles or it will crash often.
