Additional Comments
IMPORTANT: For installing the game, you need the java, i have simply downloaded the lasted windows java vertion and installed in wine. After, i have lauched the game, and i have launched my world and it's work fine. VERY IMPORTANT: After installing and before launch the game, launch the Wine Task Manager, if do not launch this, when you load your world in minecraft, you ave no commands except the mouse, if The task manager is launched, all commands is ok (For cons, I do not know why this bug.) If you follow the guidelines, the totality of the game is working 100% For a better compatibility , i recommend to use for launcher the minecraft.jar version but launched under wine* in terminal: "Wine java -jar minecraft.jar" If you tipp this in the terminal, this will launch the java file not in linux, it will launch with the Java from Wine (after install, the directory is under the "/mnt/home/root/.wine/drive_c/users/root/Application Data/.minecraft/" from wine) *The minecraft.exe in wine is not full stable, in certain moments, when i launch the .exe, i have error in terminal and nothing is launched (random bug)
