Run this Script and install all things you need to run Dekaron or other games.

The Packed Updater dont work always I/O Error , he cant Read this archive typ "div", update the client and put after updateing the data.pak again on your linux and start the game ;-).

Umm, thanks, but won't installing windows libraries basically turn ubuntu into an ubuntu-windows hybrid? And then that means its running on a hybrid, not on ubuntu.

Linux isn't linux with windows libraries either :D

Wine is a Linux Program :P
And this Program opens execute files xD
Like a Word Dokument xD you need a Program for it :rolleyes:

Cedega would work out better for noobs, not much to it and just as reliable as wine if not better. It's a pay for program, but well you know how to find it.

#reported for pserver advertising with the link to it

dont advertise other server`s webpage.

Tried to test it with Global Dekaron and 2 private servers and it doesn't work.
Before I followed this guide my game would update fine (on all 3 I tried) but when I clicked "Start" nothing happened in all 3 cases. Now that I followed this guide the launchers crash instantly when I open them.

I guess there isn't a guide to undo this script...?

First of all NONE of you i REPEAT none of the skids besides zombe who posted on here KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT LINUX first of all linux is an open source operating system WINE is a windows emulator and for all the skids that say they're hackers because thay have linux GF kids this POST makes me utterly pissed off

Wine....ahahaha... riiiight.

I have linux. I love linux. Rename the thread. How to run Dekaron on Wine because you're not running it on linux at all.

As soon as a liunx server is edited to run a windows programme it is no longer a linux system, its a hybird system. Theres no two ways about it.

Anyway, you guys are so up your own asses about keeping linux pure. If people want to have a hybrid system, let them.

My ON TOPIC question is: Has anyone actually got this method to work?
