Quoting: LeopardThere was nothing , it starts installing and then finished install. Terminal closed at light speed so i can't catch any messages from it.

When you need to run stuff in the terminal you should open a terminal window in the directory and start it from there, in this case with the command: ./falloutnv_wine.sh

(you don't need to type out the entire thing, just start typing it then press tab to autocomplete)

That way it won't close automatically when it exits. Or you can open a terminal window, then do Edit --> Profile Preferences --> Command --> "When command exits:" --> select "Hold the terminal open". Then it will no longer close when started by running a script directly from the file manager... but if you do this then when you open a terminal window normally it has to be closed manually, can't just do "exit" to dismiss it.

From what you describe, the issue is likely to be one of these:

- Trying to run it on a FAT/NTFS partition
- Missing the icoutils package
- Missing one or more of the installer files (they need to be in the same directory as the wrapper build script and resource archive)

Quoting: LeopardJust a note:

I tried your Fallout New Vegas wrapper and it didn't work.

What happened when you tried to run it / what was the terminal output?

Quoting: RafiLinuxMy kid has been on my case about getting into the Hitman series. Hopefully all goes well tonight when I install it @ home so that I can share with them :)

The wrapper for Hitman: Codename 47 won't work just yet as GOG changed the installer recently, but it'll be updated on Friday. If you need it sooner I can provide you with an early copy of the updated wrapper though :)

Quoting: legluondunetIs Wine the future for developers to make multiplatform game (Windows, MacOSX, Linux, Android)?
A better way that develop native games?

No. A good native release is always better than & preferable to a Wine wrapper (and it would be a lot easier for developers to do good cross-platform releases if they kept cross-platform support in mind when choosing middleware etc. so they don't make things unnecessarily difficult when trying to port to other systems).

Wine wrappers are best suited for older games where development has long ceased & a native Linux port has close to zero chance of happening, and where the performance impact is unlikely to be a problem due to having more powerful hardware available than at the time of the original release.
