HowTo / Notes

HOWTO

The game can be installed out of the box, but you need to build a special version of Wine to run it, as described below. In addition, you will have to place winhttp.dll.so from this archive in the RA3 game directory

  • Download Wine 1.1.2, the cursor patches and the volume name patch
  • Unpack the Wine archive through the file manager or with 'tar -xvjf wine-1.1.2.tar.bz2'
  • Enter the Wine directory with 'cd wine-1.1.2'
  • Apply the cursor patch with 'patch -p1 < ../cursor-patches-1.1.2.patch'
  • Apply the volume name patch with 'patch -p1 < ../volume-names.diff'
  • Update wineserver with 'tools/make_requests'
  • Configure Wine with './configure --prefix=$HOME/wine-ra3', where you can choose another install path if you want to. If it displays
    any errors and you are unable to fix them yourself, post the error message here, without the full console output
  • Build Wine with 'make'
  • Install with 'make install'
  • Delete the Wine source with 'cd ..; rm -rf wine-1.1.2'
  • Now you can run the game by substituting the 'wine' commandd with '$HOME/wine-ra3/bin/wine'
