WINE...

Post by Amethyst »

I was curious, if I had a problem running 0.0.22.1 under WINE, would this go under Unix or Win32 specific issues?

Well, if that's a theoretical question it depends on whether the bug is caused by WINE or not... which might not be always possible to tell apart.

Compiling TMW with all its dependencies isn't always that easy for inexperienced users. Especially the new version of guichan causes trouble on some linux distributions. Taking the compiled win32 version with all the dependencies already compiled in dynamic link libraries and running it in wine is sometimes the easier way of getting tmw to run.

Please do not send me any inquiries regarding player accounts on TMW.

Just to answer the question, problems with running TMW under WINE should go under Win32 issues. Please still specify that the problem is under WINE instead of regular Windows. Note however that WINE is not a supported platform. If it works you're lucky, if it doesn't we may not be able to help you.
