I went ahead and added a page to the wiki for this as well and added it to the New Player Tutorial/Guide: https://net7wiki.bmsite.net/index.php?title=Running_ENB_on_Windows https://net7wiki.bmsite.net/index.php?title=New_Player_Tutorial/Guide

Try this: WINEPREFIX=~/.wine-enb wine winecfg -v win7

Well I'm concerned that something that you did there is interfering with the install the script created. That's a good sign, and those other messages are normal and expected after updates are done, it's just trying to copy over any settings changes after those files get stomped by the update. Sorry, which error message is that, can you provide a screenshot? Make sure you're only using: enb-launcher from the terminal to launch while we're working through this; I would just delete that desktop shortcut and whatever that is pointing to (e.g. whatever you copied from a Windows VM) as that is obviously broken.

This is on Linux Mint? My script does not put a link to launch anything on the desktop. Did you try installing on Linux some other way previously? That shortcut is probably going to a bad install. My script adds symlinks to ~/.local/bin: $ ls ~/.local/bin/ | grep .wine-enb lrwxrwxrwx 1 cs cs 81 Dec 29 02:37 enb -> /home/cs/.wine-enb/drive_c/Program Files/Net-7/bin/net7proxy.exe_wine_launcher.sh* lrwxrwxrwx 1 cs cs 105 Dec 29 02:37 enb-cfg -> /home/cs/.wine-enb/drive_c/Program Files/EA GAMES/Earth & Beyond/EBCONFIG/net7config.exe_wine_launcher.sh* lrwxrwxrwx 1 cs cs 90 Dec 29 02:37 enb-csc -> /home/cs/.wine-enb/drive_c/Program Files/EA GAMES/Earth & Beyond/CnSC.exe_wine_launcher.sh* lrwxrwxrwx 1 cs cs 82 Dec 29 02:37 enb-launcher -> /home/cs/.wine-enb/drive_c/Program Files/Net-7/bin/LaunchNet7.exe_wine_launcher.sh* Open a command prompt and run: enb-launcher It does also try to put stuff in the Gnome application menu, but whether that works or not is very distro dependent so best to just run the above command.

back to? you were having this problem before on Linux? (I don't see that in the thread above) Typically I would refer you to this section of the troubleshooting page on the wiki: https://net7wiki.bmsite.net/index.php?title=Troubleshooting#LaunchNet7_Not_Updating,_Stuck_at_v1.9.9 but in this case none of that should apply to you since you just used my script which should have created a brand new wine prefix and everything should be freshly installed. Can you describe the details of the install process, for example: Did it prompt you to remove an existing wine prefix, and if so, what did you answer? (e.g. "Permanently remove '/home/cs/.wine-enb' so this script can recreate it from scratch [y/n]?") After the megan talking bit it should have started the launcher and gone through all the updates automatically, did that happen? How are you starting the launcher after the install? Can you provide a screenshot of your launcher window? (typically just hitting the print screen key above insert will take a screenshot on Linux)

Oh, whoops, I see the problem now, when I grabbed the link for the old version of the script I forgot to make it a raw link so it was pulling the github html page, let's go back to the original redirect method and try this because I think you will have problems with the prompts the other way: sh <(curl --fail --silent --show-error --location https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ciphersimian/enb-linux-installer/c8fb6d97e39b498f60ccbf2c2636d51ef8211ce9/install-enb-linux.sh)

Well that's mighty odd and not what I expected. What do these show? which sh ls -l $(which sh) e.g. for my system $ which sh /usr/bin/sh $ ls -l $(which sh) lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Dec 14 11:52 /usr/bin/sh -> bash*

I'll just leave this here: This is on-topic because it's a viable alternative to the increasing difficulty of running the game on Windows.

<removed as this was not the issue>

@dragonorb13 As far as I can tell Linux Mint lags pretty far behind on wine versions, try this in a terminal and report back what it says: wine --version More than likely this is a version before the win32 -> WoW64 change (#$&@ you Micro-Soft!!) You will probably have better luck with this older version of the installer designed to work with older wine versions: sh <(curl --fail --silent --show-error --location https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ciphersimian/enb-linux-installer/c8fb6d97e39b498f60ccbf2c2636d51ef8211ce9/install-enb-linux.sh) When it prompts you to remove the old WINE prefix make sure and say yes.

lol, amazing necro

I'm sure lots of stupid people have done lots of stupid things, but in this case OP was not one of them, hence my post. Cool, does this project look like a commercial game development to you? Indie projects and mods, especially free ones like this, use free tools for a reason. That reason is money, or the lack thereof. I'm not surprised at all. I'm not sure you understand what the emulator team actually did here? The full client source is not available (and wasn't available in any form when the emulator was developed) and the emulator uses the Westwood/EA demo client. That's where the bulk of the "game engine" stuff is located (graphics, sound). About the only piece of the server that would typically be part of a game engine is the networking code, but since they were only reverse-engineering and implementing one half of that (the server side) and they didn't have any source for the Westwood/EA engine (until recently) they had to create something from scratch that would interoperate with the existing client. So unless by "something new" you mean, "an entirely new game, client and server" I'm not sure why the emulator team would have any use for a game engine.

@caseychaos1212 if there were any other .w3d assets created for this project you should be able to get them by also downloading the Net-7 Installer and running the update, however I'm skeptical that there will be much if anything in the way of 3D assets changed/added, probably limited to 2D .dds files.

Well if you read his initial post, he's staff from W3D Hub, and he's working on writing a modern program to read and write .w3d's, so he's obviously well aware it's Westwood 3D and he doesn't need to find tools, he's making one. Having something that works with Blender would be vastly superior to an aging proprietary tool like 3DS Max.

Yeah I also agree with everything @Overtkill said. The only people camping triggers lately are those doing the raids legitimately and the triggers are typically sitting for days on end now. The problem seems to have been dealt with and the beatings need not continue any longer. There is a huge difference between checking to see if a trigger is up because your guild is going to do it legitimately vs. logging in, killing the trigger, and logging out, or botting to kill a trigger and deny others from doing it.
