[HOW TO] Install RMVXACE on Ubuntu Options

[SynthesisRTF]

Woah woah woah. Once I got passed the part where it told me the progam was installed, I thought we were good to go.

I was wrong. Terribly, terribly wrong.

The installer starts and extracts files. I can click next, then it'll start installing. I then get a cryptic message:

"1: 25003 2: -2146232575 3: 2 4: 3 5: 6: 7: 8: 9: 10:"

I have the option to click "Retry". When I do, the program uninstalls, and tells me that an error occured. Then it wants to send an error report.

So I tried to reproduce the problem; I tried to redownload the file, and proceeded to "maintenance mode" - I wanted to reinstall, so I clicked uninstall. The program was uninstalled fine, but then I get this error: "dotnet20 install completed, but installed file /home/synthesis/.wine/dosdevices/c:/windows/Microsoft.NET/Framework/v2.0.50727/mscorlib.dll not found"

I feel like I'm doing something wrong. <xD

It's that damn framework, man. Tried to download everything else and got this odd message:

"Working around Wine bug 1429", then "25715", then "25716". The files were downloaded though I guess, because there's a checkmark next to them when Winetricks reloads?

I can't find Program Files or a Windows folder in my hard drive...

You weren't supposed to uninstall WINE, just the programs inside of WINE. Is there anything you have on Ubuntu you consider important? You might want to consider a fresh install and delete all the old Ubuntu information by burning the ISO to a DVD instead using InfraRecorder. This will ensure you have a 100% clean Ubuntu undisturbed by problems.

If you don't want to do that, please uninstall everything related to WINE using sudo commands. For example; sudo uninstall wine. Yes, now we must try removing your WINE.

You can further clean up the system of the files by going; sudo ppa-purge the ppa you want to remove. If purge says its not installed, you'll need to install it. Next, I want you to run sudo apt-get autoclean, sudo apt-get clean, and sudo apt-get autoremove. After all of that is run, please restart your computer and log back in. If you still see WINE, then go the Package Center, type WINE in the upper corner search box and you'll see a list. There should be a check mark next to it if you have it installed. If so, click it. If not, exit out of this place.

If you managed to remove WINE, please installed an older version of the system. The beta version does not work properly. Please follow this guide, http://www.winehq.org/download/ubuntu,and add the PPA Repository! After that, I want you to install WINE no other way than this code; sudo apt-get install wine. After you install an older version (do not upgrade), update the files by typing this; sudo apt-get update. Now, we must install Winetricks.

CODE

$ wget http://www.kegel.com/wine/winetricks
$ chmod +x winetricks
$ sh winetricks

If you want to be sure, do the sudo apt-get update command again and then restart the computer. When you get back into the computer, use Winetricks to install all the DLLs again.

I can't find Program Files or a Windows folder in my hard drive...

Go into /home/. Once you are in home, press CTRL + H. Not at once, but CTRL first, hold it down, and then press H. This will load all the hidden folders, including the .wine folders you earlier posted a directory URL to, which was: /home/synthesis/.wine/dosdevices/c:/windows/Microsoft.NET/Framework/v2.0.50727/mscorlib.dll not found"

Please report back if you have any questions or problems, or if it solved the issue.

Hit me up on Facebook, man. I'll try and walk ya through it. I've got an idea on the problem, but I don't wanna type out every single possible option when only one would work, y'know? :P

I know bumping isn't allowed but I want to point out that RPG Maker 95, 2k, 2k3, xp, vx, vx-ace do not run with the latest wine development version which at the time of this writing is 1.5.20.

Gecko, and Gdi are currently broken so you wouldn't be able to run it as I've tried. Does work with the previous 1.5X version though.

However, I use Gentoo but since source is much more intertwined than generic binaries which Ubuntu uses(IE not optimized for your hardware) it may run with Canonicle patches but Canonicle only works with stable packages and dev packages(until stable) are handled by the community or you install from source from the github branch.
