Hello, this is a general guide to how I install and run programs on linux using wine. I am using a fedora 39 system, but this tutorial will apply to any linux distrobution that uses wine, gnome software, or flatpaks.
I have been installing a lot of old windows games on linux lately, and I am finding that wine works way better now than it did at the time these games were released. It is possible in most cases to get things working without the performance issues that used to dog me at every turn.
The software I am using that you will need:
Play on Linux:
Wine:
Game software, in this case I was just using abandonware:
If play on linux won’t start after install, you will likely also need some background libraries as well, in order to ensure things work correctly: Python3, pip, asyncore
for most linux distros, the commands to get these libraries should be something like [package handler] install [packagename].
