Working with Voobly and AoM. ONLY USE THIS WINE FOR PLAYING AoM THROUGH VOOBLY. CREATE A UNIQUE PREFIX FOR THIS WINE.
Make sure you can run the latest version of wine-staging(i386), before using this wine(make sure you have all the runtime depedencies installed).
You can either build it yourself, or you can download the binaries in the Releases tab:
https://github.com/stkrknds/wine-aom-voobly/releases/tag/aom-voobly
The wine build itself is in the folder aom-voobly/wine-aom-voobly.
- Download.
wget https://github.com/stkrknds/wine-aom-voobly/releases/download/aom-voobly/v0-7.4-wine-aom-voobly.tar.gz
- Uncompress.
tar -xf v0-7.4-wine-aom-voobly.tar.gz
- You can run the install.sh script. It will move the aom-voobly folder in your home directory and create a prefix inside it called ".aompre". In the winecfg window, press ok.
sh install.sh
Make sure that everytime you want to install/config something for this wine/prefix(e.g. AoM/Voobly), you use the following format:
WINEPREFIX=~/aom-voobly/.aompre ~/aom-voobly/wine-aom-voobly/bin/wine path_to_file
Of course you can, alternatively, create an alias.
Now it is important to remember that I don't really know what caused the I.P. issue to begin with, I just edited/removed some lines, and now it is working fine(ONLY FOR THIS PURPOSE, AGAIN, DONT USE THIS WINE FOR ANYTHING ELSE). If someone tries to run this, and fails, please let me know, I will do my best to help you. Also if anyone has any suggestions/tips, let me know.. I haven't studied the code extensively, only enough to "fix" the issue, probably not in a good way, but it works!
Hf!
Below the original wine readme.
- INTRODUCTION
Wine is a program which allows running Microsoft Windows programs (including DOS, Windows 3.x, Win32, and Win64 executables) on Unix. It consists of a program loader which loads and executes a Microsoft Windows binary, and a library (called Winelib) that implements Windows API calls using their Unix, X11 or Mac equivalents. The library may also be used for porting Windows code into native Unix executables.
Wine is free software, released under the GNU LGPL; see the file LICENSE for the details.
- QUICK START
From the top-level directory of the Wine source (which contains this file), run:
./configure make
Then either install Wine:
make install
Or run Wine directly from the build directory:
./wine notepad
Run programs as "wine program". For more information and problem resolution, read the rest of this file, the Wine man page, and especially the wealth of information found at https://www.winehq.org.
- REQUIREMENTS
To compile and run Wine, you must have one of the following:
Linux version 2.0.36 or later FreeBSD 8.0 or later Solaris x86 9 or later NetBSD-current Mac OS X 10.8 or later
As Wine requires kernel-level thread support to run, only the operating systems mentioned above are supported. Other operating systems which support kernel threads may be supported in the future.
FreeBSD info: Wine will generally not work properly on versions before FreeBSD 8.0. See https://wiki.freebsd.org/Wine for more information.
Solaris info: You will most likely need to build Wine with the GNU toolchain (gcc, gas, etc.). Warning : installing gas does not ensure that it will be used by gcc. Recompiling gcc after installing gas or symlinking cc, as and ld to the gnu tools is said to be necessary.
NetBSD info: Make sure you have the USER_LDT, SYSVSHM, SYSVSEM, and SYSVMSG options turned on in your kernel.
Mac OS X info: You need Xcode/Xcode Command Line Tools or Apple cctools. The minimum requirements for compiling Wine are clang 3.8 with the MacOSX10.10.sdk and mingw-w64 v8. The MacOSX10.14.sdk and later can only build wine64.
Supported file systems: Wine should run on most file systems. A few compatibility problems have also been reported using files accessed through Samba. Also, NTFS does not provide all the file system features needed by some applications. Using a native Unix file system is recommended.
Basic requirements: You need to have the X11 development include files installed (called xorg-dev in Debian and libX11-devel in Red Hat).
Of course you also need "make" (most likely GNU make).
You also need flex version 2.5.33 or later and bison.
Optional support libraries: Configure will display notices when optional libraries are not found on your system. See https://wiki.winehq.org/Recommended_Packages for hints about the packages you should install. On 64-bit platforms, you have to make sure to install the 32-bit versions of these libraries.
- COMPILATION
To build Wine, do:
./configure make
This will build the program "wine" and numerous support libraries/binaries. The program "wine" will load and run Windows executables. The library "libwine" ("Winelib") can be used to compile and link Windows source code under Unix.
To see compile configuration options, do ./configure --help.
For more information, see https://wiki.winehq.org/Building_Wine
- SETUP
Once Wine has been built correctly, you can do "make install"; this will install the wine executable and libraries, the Wine man page, and other needed files.
Don't forget to uninstall any conflicting previous Wine installation first. Try either "dpkg -r wine" or "rpm -e wine" or "make uninstall" before installing.
Once installed, you can run the "winecfg" configuration tool. See the Support area at https://www.winehq.org/ for configuration hints.
- RUNNING PROGRAMS
When invoking Wine, you may specify the entire path to the executable, or a filename only.
For example: to run Notepad:
wine notepad (using the search Path as specified in
wine notepad.exe the registry to locate the file)
wine c:\\windows\\notepad.exe (using DOS filename syntax)
wine ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/notepad.exe (using Unix filename syntax)
wine notepad.exe readme.txt (calling program with parameters)
Wine is not perfect, so some programs may crash. If that happens you will get a crash log that you should attach to your report when filing a bug.
