Origin

Download www.dm.origin.com/download/legacy (legacy OriginThinSetup.exe).
Create a fresh wineprefix (32-bit).
Run the installer and leave the default options.
When Origin launches it will tell you that "Your update could not be completed.".
Download origin-a.akamaihd.net/Origin-Client-Download/origin/live/OriginUpdate_9_12_0_34172.zip and put the contents into your_wine_prefix/drive_c/Program\ Files/Origin/ , so that that folder contains a Origin.exe file.
You can then start this Origin.exe and log in.

This has been confirmed to work for some time. I'm able to play some older games just fine. But Dragon Age 2 crashes at the main menu, assuming when it tries to connect to the Origin server. I tested it with Origin in offline mode and it still happened. Mass Effect 3 runs fine. No idea about other Bioware games.

The main problem is getting 64-bit to work (see other comments).

I have this running in 64-bit if you download 9_12_0_34172. Then upgrade to origin-a.akamaihd.net/Origin-Client-Download/origin/live/OriginUpdate_10_4_7_34767.zip you should be running 64 bit and the latest version.

Screenshot below of it running, testing games now.

The Sims 4 works, takes forever to load but it works!

I initially had some luck with installing the legacy on a 32-bit wine prefix (see the many posts below). Of course this wouldn't allow for the installation of newer games.

I decided to fiddle around with things today. From the successful install of the 32-bit wine prefix folder (.wine.Origin-32-bit) I logged into the Origin server successfully (nothing new).

I then copied over the entire contents of the Origin folder to the 32-bit PlayOnLinux folder. Worked again - I was signed in automatically. (It also worked bypassing PoL and just using wine).

I then copied the 32-bit install into the 64-bit PlayOnLinux folder, and I was signed in automatically. Saw my game library, etc. But it was still the legacy version of Origin.

I then copied a Windows 10 64-bit working installation over to the 64-bit PlayOnLinux folder, and... it updated. The stupid thing actually updated. I am now running the newest Origin over PoL, winecfg Windows 8.1 and mf.dll disabled in the library. I was logged in automatically. It seems, no surprise, that there is a cookie, somewhere.... but where? I overwrote the entire Origin directory with a working Windows install.

Can games play? I have no idea yet. But I'm downloading Mass Effect: Andromeda. It uses DirectX11, so chances are I'll get a black screen. Later, I'll download an older game to test it.

Update:

Using PlayOnLinux 64-bit install.

Mass Effect Andromeda hangs in processes and does not work or even load a window (expected).

Mass Effect 3 works, but Origin crashed (while downloading its DLCs) while I was playing the base game. It crashed just before I was going to exit the initial cutscene and enter actual gameplay. The game successfully connected to the Bioware server.

After the crash, Origin would not properly open, and experienced a "serious issue" each time. Once I removed the partial download of the Mass Effect 3 folder, Origin opened without issue. I then replaced the incomplete game folder in Origin Games, and recommenced the download without issue.

If you are getting an error while installing Origin that looks something like "Origin needs to connect to internet to finish installation" You may need to get the "Origin" files and paste them in your "Program Files (x86)" folder. If you don't have another computer with Origin correctly installed you can get the full Origin file here (Yandex Disk) : yadi.sk/d/b6r3lUKN3EUDeP

Just download this and paste its contents in '/home/user/.wine/drive_c/Program Files(x86)/Origin/' (Assuming you have a 'default' install of both wine and origin). These files are for Origin Legacy Installer 32 bit.

This should let you start Origin if it couldn't connect to the internet to install.

Unfortunately, this doesn't help at all. I get to the legacy login screen and don't even have the option to play offline.

I copied the legacy files from the above link. I don't want to have to install it onto my Windows laptop (and thereby uninstalling regular Origin). I don't know if that would work anyway.

I'm not sure why this legacy Origin refuses to work in offline mode. I've played on the newest Origin offline. It's very confusing.

I installed it this time via PlayOnLinux with no difference from a regular install. I get to the "an origin update is ready to install" screen and it doesn't matter if I say "install now" or "go offline". I am just forwarded to the login screen with nothing to do but exit.

Does anyone know which file stores the user's login info? There is one somewhere. If we knew that, this file might be the crucial thing to copy over from a working install, perhaps bypassing any need to have an internet connection. Though if more than a simple cookie could potentially break the install if copied from new to legacy. Anyway, just a thought.

Kubuntu 16.04, fully updated. Wine 2.0-rc6.

Here is the log from an attempt in a fresh, 32 bit envronment: pastebin.com/AhktEw1P

And from a fresh, 64 bit envronment: pastebin.com/scJWCyBd

Both set to windows 7, since the new installer won't install to an XP environment. I have it working in an XP environment but it's a really old version of Origin and will only start in offline mode.

Haven't had any luck with the legacy installer either. It pops up a window complaining about not being able to download something.

Any ideas?

Gnome 3.22.2, Arch Linux 64-bit, wine 2.0-rc6

Same problem.

Installations tried:
- full and thin from Origin direct
- legacy (thin) from Origin direct
- copy working updated installation from Win10 64 laptop
- copy working legacy installation from Win10 64 laptop

Wine: tried all Windows types from 7 upward.

One thing I noticed that I haven't seen mentioned is that OriginWebHelperService.exe consistently pops up with an error message at either on boot trial or upon closing, but also, oddly, when booting up winecfg....

"encountered a serious problem and needs to close": pastebin.com/126eN2ZC

Origin: when launched, through cmd or direct exe launch, there is a blank white window with a black border that obviously crashes or is, at least, unclickable.
pastebin.com/CuexFfrW

A repeated problem from the cmd line origin run is:
fixme:module:find_dll_file skipping L"C:\\windows\\system32\\MSVCP120.dll" because of wrong architecture

I'd also like to add that disabling the mf library in wine does not help (while running any any type of Windows in Wine)

This is in a clean, 32-bit wineprefix.

So, I seem to be unable to start Origin at all. I'm currently using wine 2.0-rc5 on Arch Linux. It was unable to update itself after using the Legacy Installer, giving the same issue that was noted in the howtos for a bug supposedly fixed in 1.7.x. I downloaded the latest update for Origin in zip form manually and extracted it, and that seemed to work. However, with the windows version set to Windows XP (the default, and what the current latest test said they had it set to), it complains that Origin only works on Windows 7 or newer. If I set it to Windows 7, I get a number of fixmes involving d3d11, and then I get a crash of Origin with an empty error report.

Here's a pastebin of the output of trying to run Origin with the version set to Windows 7:

pastebin.com/txmWebrT

Did you have Windows version set to XP _before_ using the legacy installer? I had it set to Win7 and ran the legacy installer and it gave me the same errors afterwards. Purged the prefix and tried again. (Wine 2.0rc3-staging)

I tried it both ways. I've purged my prefix a number of times trying different ways of getting this to work.

I think the issue is maybe to do with the legacy OriginThinSetup.exe just not being able to update after being installed. I get this error:

"UPDATE ERROR: Your update could not be completed. Please download and install the latest version of Origin from download.dm.origin.com/origin/live/OriginSetup.exe".

And as I said, I tried to follow the howto under "[Fixed since Wine 1.7.55] Origin(Thin)Setup.exe fails to install or update" because even though it's an old, fixed bug I figured hey it might be relevant, but I guess the zip I got seems to be Windows 7 or higher only? I dunno, I'm kind of lost :P

Try wine-staging 2.0~rc5. That version updated an patch which I assume fixes this, see bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38970.)

I've been trying to avoid wine-staging so that I'm not too far into the bleeding edge, but I'll try that and at least see if it helps, thanks. :)

Okay so, the legacy OriginThinSetup.exe still leaves me with an installation that says it can't update, but moving to Windows 7 with winecfg and running the full normal setup actually gets me somewhere now. I can get through setup, and, after ignore in OriginWebHelper.exe get the initial window for Origin with the spinner to show up. It seems to freeze at this point though (the spinner keeps spinning but never gets anywhere and my terminal is bombarded with repetitive d3d11 errors)

For clarification, this is after switching to wine-staging 2.0rc5.

I have successfully worked around this issue at this point by using a Windows XP VM to install the legacy version of Origin and copy the files over. Origin is now running fine.

Sweet.

Is it running fully patched, to the newest version of origin, and is origin online?

Also, 32 bit or 64 bit?

Thanks!

Updated to the latest "legacy" version. Goes online, can download games and play them online, downloads occasionally stall (fixed by restarting origin) but eventually finish. The games I've been testing (Mass Effect series) don't run if I just run them from origin but they do if I simply run them directly with wine (from a terminal) with origin running. Running in a 32-bit prefix, Windows version set to XP. Used an XP VM to download and update the client, though afaict it can now update on its own

I'm going to try running those games then. Dragon Age 2 crashed on start up - and crashed the desktop completely - sooo avoiding atm. Installing ME3 to test (got the first two on Steam).

However, I was running with all 64-bit stuff..... bad idea, I guess, though DA2 crashed before I switched wine to WinXP.

[praise.gif]

Seriously, I got it running.

Gnome 3.22.2, Arch Linux 64-bit, wine 2.0-rc6
Running on wine with WinXP

But it's still version 9.12 which I assume is the Legacy version. It's set up to update itself, but I guess it won't? Should I turn that off?

The problem however is running newer games (2014+). But... in theory, older games should work.

Hi,

I'm running wine 1.9.19-1 on a machine with up to date version of Arch Linux. I've tried using a 32bit wine prefix and a couple of different winetricks: d3dx9, dotnet20, dotnet30, vcrun20{10,12,13}. When I try to use the origin installer or thin installer I get the an error that my machine doesn't meet the hardware specifications. The output from wine is long so here is a link pastebin.com/FQvV7352

Updated: I rolled back to wine 1.7.9-1, and got a new error log and it crashes saying it can't find the qt platform plugin "windows". The new error log is short so I pasted it below.

PS Any of the releases I have tried >=1.8.1-1 gave me the same errors as my original comment.

Same problem here. Not installing with OriginSetup.exe on 1.9.19 and earlier Wine versions.

Same trouble here. I've compared client logs (C:\users\Public\Application Data\Origin/Logs/Client_Log) form working windows10 and wine. They both have some errors about configuration, but in wine there is one error more:

"Error OriginApplication::OriginApplication 9 Origin client failed to create the OpenGL display context - must exit"

One of you should report a bug for that. Just go to bugs.winehq.org/ and read and follow the instructions. When you're done set this AppDB entry as "affected".

In the bug report you may point out, that several people are affected here in this thread (however a "me too" in the bug report itself is not useful).
Since this seems to be graphics related (opengl) please tell you're hardware specs.

Not really a bug from Wine.

There is several threads on EA forum about this error :

I found a workaround here : appdb.winehq.org/commentview.php?iAppId=13176&iVersionId=26175&iThreadId=98506#Comment-98552

I find a workaround on this page : forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/899172/new-origin-how-to-update-scaling-oversize-issue-fixed-in-beta
You need to install an old version of Origin from this link : www.dm.origin.com/download/legacy

Now I can start Origin and Dead Space 3.

Yeah, thx, legacy worked! Able to run client an SimCity2013

In winecfg should select Windows version WindowsXP. I think this prevents clint from upgrading.

After installing Origin and entering my Login Credentials and submitting that application Crashes. I have experienced this on F23 & F24 through multiple versions of Wine.

Hi Bill, I just deleted your 2 logfiles. Please do not post logfiles in the comments of the AppDB. Please file a bug instead.
Anyway, did you try installing in a fresh wine prefix?

Hey Jre,

Sorry about that. I wasn't sure if file a bug would have been the correct tactic.

As for the "fresh prefix" I like playing with Linux a lot so I have probably installed my OS and wine more than once over the lives of Fedora 23 & 24. So If I am understanding "Fresh Prefix" correctly, then I will say yes as in it has been freshly installed more than once. Is that what you mean?

Thanks,
-Bill

With "wine prefix" I was referring to $HOME/.wine/ or any other prefix specified by you, see wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#Can_I_store_the_virtual_Windows_installation_somewhere_other_than_.7E.2F.wine.3F
So if you did *not* restore your old $HOME/.wine from your previous installation after reinstalling Fedora, then *only* installed Origin, but did *not* install any dll overrides, e.g. with winetricks, then you had a "fresh" prefix. It sounds as if you did so, so everything is good.

Thanks for the bugreport, that's indeed the correct way to tackle problems like you have. Good luck!

OK, I submitted Bug: 41272 per your suggestion. I want to be able to provide the logs, I felt they would be useful. I also linked it to this page.

Does right clicking the tray icon do anything for you? I am using Wine staging 1.9.17 and KDE 5.7.4.

With windows version set to XP the full installer runs fine. Changing the version to 7 immediately prompts for an update that seems to fail.

There seems to be a URL redirector that functions off a valid client version number and points to the latest update.

secure.download.dm.origin.com/autopatch/2/upgradeFrom/9.12.2.60376/en_US/PROD?platform=PCWIN actually shows the download location in XML as origin-a.akamaihd.net/Origin-Client-Download/origin/live/OriginUpdate_9_12_2_60376.zip

Directly downloading that update and overwriting files in ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Origin allows the client to run fine in Windows 7 mode.

Hi guys. I've managed to get Origin working on Windows 7 prefix. When you install it using Windows 7 prefix, it succeeds, but afterwards it doesn't launch. I've found out that Origin folder in program files becomes read only for some reason, and before launching origin.exe, always make origin folder and it's files read-write instead of read-only.

I'm using this command:
chmod -R 774 /home//.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/ANYTHING/drive_c/Program\ Files/Origin

And origin launches successfully.

I installed Origin, but the directory privileges are fine. However, Origin absolutely refuses to run. I get this scrolling non-stop in the console:

preloader: Warning: failed to reserve range 00010000-00110000

And that is it. Dead in the water here.

And so I ran the installer again. And again. Eventually I got to the login prompt and got it to work. Not sure why I had to run the installer multiple times....

I have been having trouble getting this working but thanks to my brother, we managed to get it working.
What you will have to do is disable Origin in Games which can be done by going to Application Settings > Origin in Games > Enable Origin in Game (Disable), as if you don't, Origin crashes when you try to launch a new game, and blacklist mf.dll

Now I am using playonlinux so I only know how to do it that way, it might be the same as doing it normally, I don't know. But keep in mind that this is POL I'm talking about, might just have to skip to Wine Configuration part of my tutorial.

To blacklist it, click on Origin in PlayonLinux, then hit configure. Go to the Wine Tab and click Wine configuration (This is where I think you might be able to do this without POL), go to libraries and click and type in the "New override for library" mf.dll and then hit add.

Then click on mf.dll in the existing override box and click edit.
Look for disable, click that, hit okay and you should be good to go.

Just for the extra details, I am using Linux Mint 17.3 MATE 64Bit, Origin is 32bit and the Wine I'm using for it is 1.7.55

The flickering is caused by MATE's Desktop Environment, it happens outside of Wine.

So if you don't have MATE, it's fine, if you do, switch to something else.

Hi All,

I found during the update, the installer extracts the files to:

~/.wine/drive_c/users/Public/Application Data/Origin/SelfUpdate/

There is also a log under: ~/.wine/drive_c/users/Public/Application Data/Origin/Logs/UpdateTool_Log.txt

The error i was getting was:

2015/9/9 5:38:54.618] FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ARCHIVE: C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin\Origin.VisualElementsManifest.xml. Last error: [32]
[2015/9/9 5:38:54.618] SetFileAttributes failed.. Last error: [0]
[2015/9/9 5:38:54.618] Attempting deletion operation: C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin\Origin.VisualElementsManifest.xml. Number of times: [1]. Last error: [0]


So i found a work around to make the update work. During the update f you:
1) move ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Origin/ to a temp directory
2) wait for the install to fail
3) copy the temp directory back, but do not overwrite any files

it should work (worked for me):
3.19.0-28-generic #30~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Tue Sep 1 09:32:55 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I've started a fresh wine environment in ~/.wine32-2.
I've installed vcrun2010, 2012 and 2013 via winetricks.
I'm telling it to use the win32 architecture.
After running OriginSetup.exe, I copy in the Origin directory from a freshly installed and updated Win7 PC.

I launch Origin.exe (env WINEARCH=win32 env WINEPREFIX="/home/aseelye/.wine32-2" wine Origin.exe) and it let's me log into origin, then I get a message telling me "The program igoproxy.exe has encountered a serious problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.".

Next I get an Origin window saying "Origin has encountered a serious problem and must close".

Has anyone else come across this?

I'm seeing the same issue after an Origin update today.

Opened Bug 38970

[ Please do not post terminal output in the comments, this belongs in bugreports. ]

The relevant line is:
wine: Call from 0x7b83ba4e to unimplemented function d3d11.dll.D3D11CreateDeviceAndSwapChain, aborting
wine: Unimplemented function

A stub for this function was added in Wine 1.7.47, but as we see in Steve Dawson's bugreport (thanks!), this is not enough for us.


Anyway, in the past there was a tip to disable IGO in the terminal by removing the original IGO32.dll and replacing it with an empty, write-protected dummy. (This stopped working with some version of Origin, so I removed it). Maybe try it again (of course replace $WINEPREFIX and $PROGRAMFILES and maybe check for other IGO files to also replace):

cd "$WINEPREFIX/drive_c/$PROGRAMFILES/Origin"
rm IGO32.dll
touch IGO32.dll
chmod 000 IGO32.dll

Once you can get to the main Origin window again, disable IGO (Origin in Game) via the menu. You may also do this in your Windows installation and then copy that to Linux again. Please report your findings.

Jre, thanks for your reply.

I tried removing igo32.dll and replacing with a dummy, this just causes an earlier failure to launch. I also tried the same trick with igoproxy.exe with similar results.

Regards,

Steve.

I have found a workaround for the igoproxy crash.

Locate a copy of Origin v9.6.1 and extract it to temp location, copy the IGO32.dll from the temp location to the "$WINEPREFIX/drive_c/$PROGRAMFILES/Origin" folder overwriting the newer version. It may be a good idea to backup the original file first.

Now when Origin is launched, igoproxy.exe will still throw an exception, but the main Origin window will appear after login and allow gameplay.

Hopefully someone can duplicate.

Steve.

Yup, that fixed it. I wasn't able to locate v9.6.1 but I downloaded the v9.5.20 from download.dm.origin.com/origin/beta/OriginUpdate_9_5_20_5318.zip and used the IGO32.dll from there. It worked great.

I've been playing The Sims 4 for about two hours with no problems at all.


Thanks!

Hi Allen, thanks for confirming.

Steve.

If you want to avoid seeing the exception, try removing the file C:\Program Files\Origin\igoproxy.exe.

That fixed the problem for me using Crossover, and hopefully you'll get the same results using vanilla WINE.

Unfortunately removing igoproxy.exe or even igoproxy64.exe doesn't solve this :(

I copied igoproxy.exe and igoproxy64.exe as well as igo32/64.dll from working version Version 9.6.1.5336 - 374920, but Origin is still crashing.

I can confirm that this solves the crashing problem I was having myself.

Fedora 22, Wine 1.7.51

Here it is a year later, and this fix is still necessary. I replaced igo32.dll with the old version and Origin runs just fine. The new version (7/30/2016) causes Origin to crash.

Running Ubuntu 14.04 on my laptop here, using wine 1.9.15, the latest version of origin installs and runs great with one minor hiccup. You have to chmod +x the Origin directory in c:\program files right after you install it. You also still have to disable Origin In Game.

Other than those things, I've been playing The Sims 4 with no problems at all, even after several game and origin updates.

Oops, made a mistake there. That's supposed to be a chmod +w. Not +x.

None of the replied "fixes" in this thread do me any good. I was trying to run a game that NEEDS 64 bit mode, and i'm getting IGO64.dll related crashes

This is error is still making me crazy... I can't play Mass Effect 3 and really would like to proceed my journey that began with the first part of this series under Linux using wine.

Changing the IGO32.dll did not help for me.

What worked was to copy another exe over the igoproxy.exe. I took the clock.exe from a wine's windows/system directory. Now origin starts without the two error dialogs.

This is unfortunately not working for me. Still can't play ME3 using latest Origin with wine 1.8

To the people getting errors when installing, if you are using playonlinux with wine try going to "configure" on the driver that you are trying to install on, then click on "install components" and install "dotnet45" it will update the driver. After trying for a week, I'm finally able to log into origin and install my games. I hope this helped :D

PS I also had to type
echo 1 | sudo tee /proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_scope
into terminal in order to do so.

I am trying to remap my controller's buttons but nothing changes in FIFA WORLD, it's like if the game mapping is stuck ... i can't get any result; do what i do (I have tried many diferent buttonsets and none changes anything i repeat...) ... any idea!? :P

I've also tried usign xboxdrv package and using 'wine control' but anything works ...

1 - You can try puting files : dinput.dll dinput8.dll xinput(varius files) and register in winecfg like "native , builit" and try again .

2 - Well you can use "AntiMicro" like Workaround , for temp solution
and emulate Keyboard / Mouse , via Gamepad.

Oh! :D Thank so much for ur interest and ur answer...

I have done some progress since yesterday, for instance, i have got now an operating right analog (this wasn't case yesterday xD) but... i suspect that this is due to FIFA World 'buttondatasetup.ini' (I have solved right analog issue changing 'xbox360' (my gamepad) values to 'default' gamepad)

But... now has been unsetup A,X,B,Y buttons and POV ... i don't know what more can i do ... xD. Don't worry, i'm not interesting in a temp solution ... i wanna learn about Wine and Linux gamepads/joys management ... :)

I attach a copy to 'buttondatasetup.ini' that i have modified ... because i think that could be related with your suggestion about try putting files : dinput.dll dinput8.dll xinput(varius files) and register in winecfg like "native , builit" and try again. Above all WINECFG seems to be promising option but i don't know much about registry w$ edition ... :(

i have noticed also that 'buttondatasetup.ini' is opened using Wine ...

And sorry for bad post... :( if any moderator could delete it ... would be helpful :P

paste.debian.net/135168/

I also noticed that Wine's web admins should add to their games data base FIFA World... i tried it and works perfectly (Gold in Debian Jessie ;D ) ... (except by gamepad mapping xD) but works very pretty, and one entry here, in Wine's games data base could help people like me to solve these kind of issues ... xD

tested it, i meant ... I've also found these infos... that could be helpful ... but i don't know if works it in this bit community-studied game ... xD

steamcommunity.com/app/221410/discussions/0/828938354860178892/

Already I've got solution;

Running some precise xboxdrv parameters and editing of Fifa World 'buttonDataSetup.ini'

Maybe i should write about this in GitHub (still i have translate my ideas xD), I'll share the link. :P

I hope that appdb.winehq.org/ moderators open a FIFA World entry... I've tested it and works perfectly, some little bugs like it doesn't close totally while it's closing but... minos bugs.. (i haven't seen none more, really xD) ; as I said ... it works perfectly (despite headaches caused by gamepad xD) Gold in Debian Jessie.

Thanks so much for ur attention ... See u soon :P :D

Adding an app works user-driven, not admin-driven:

Just go to appdb.winehq.org/ and "Submit App", then fill out your test report. An admin will review your report then, and add the app to AppDB. If you choose to be admin for the new app you may add a remap-controller-HOWTO there.

Thanks a lot guy! :P

This is my first time trying to use Wineskin for anything, but I've attempted multiple times now to get Origin for PC to download (using OriginThinSetup.exe and OriginSetup.exe), but every time that I do, I get an error-message mid-download: "Program Error - The program Setup.exe has encountered a serious problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." If I just click "Close", the installation keeps going, but I can't get the installation of the actual program to work. Not a computer genius and have wasted a lot of time trying to get this to work in multiple ways, have completely deleted the wrapper a few times and started from scratch, all to no avail. Help?

I was having the same problem. You may need to download the Microsoft XML Parser. Try using winetricks to install msxml3 and then try downloading it again.

OMG! Thank you so much!! This fixed it for me! :D Now, onwards to figuring out these download patches and trying to get it to run in 64 bit mode :D

Nix the 64bit mode. I was thinking I saw someone talking about a work around, but I guess it's still not possible -_-

I want to confirm that this also worked for me. I am on OS X 10.10.4 and use Wineskin 2.6 to install Origin. The installer will crash without the msxml3 winetricks.

Many thanks!
