What was on the laptop is ubuntu. I am now in the process of attempting that .wine patch, but I can't find the source file because I installed it through apt-get instead of git. I got this working on ubuntu before, so I have no idea what I'm doing wrong.

If you already have ubuntu then the process is way easier.

You just need to install wine-staging , its wine with some gaming modifications it will run PSO with out issues. You can find that wine under the repositories for ubuntu.

maybe this could help you.   -->  http://linuxg.net/install-wine-staging-on-ubuntu/

Alright, thanks man. Hopefully the issue doesn't persist with the bullshit "deferred" file problem. If it happens again, I'll save the file and paste it.

ok good luck , post the results.

Wasn't able to get it set up, my work environment was dusty and there's static risk for messing with the chromebook. Had to remove the read/write switch on the motherboard, couldn't risk it. Working on getting it running on this other laptop instead, and the mystery lies in tha tI got schthack to work, with its launcher, but not Ultima.

Alright, I installed wine-staging, but I'm not sure what to do now. I have both wine and wine-staging or something? Am I supposed to load the game with the staging version instead? And if so, how?

 

no that you have wine-stagging installed first of all try to run the game, skiping the launcher...  

go to the game directory in console once you are in the game directory tipe   "wine psobb.exe"  WITH OUT the quote.

if the game starts up then your going good.

next step is to install net framework 4.0 or 4.5 where is easier.. for this you will need a "program" (more like a script) called winetricks to install it --https://wiki.winehq.org/Winetricks
-- Winetricks and Framework 4.5 needs Wine to be running in to a environment of 32 bits, follow the next steps to accomplish this (see spoiler)

This Is how I did it. The above answer - for me - did not work.

First I deleted the Wine folder with this command:


rm -r ~/.wine

If it tells you that directory is not empty just add the -f (force) flag. Note that this will remove any windows applications installed in this prefix!

Your command should look something like this:


rm -r -f ~/.wine

And then create a 32 bit prefix with this command:


WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.wine wine wineboot

now this line in to the directory of winetricks.

$winetricks dotnet45

once you have winetricks and framework 4.5  the launcher should now work just fine.

report results.

I tried to start a separate thread for this (https://www.phantasystaronline.net/forum/index.php?/topic/29837-launcherexe-on-mac/) to no avail, so maybe people here have a better idea.

I took about a year off from PSOBB and when I left everything it was running fine on my Mac, but either something with OSX Sierra or with updated versions of wine are seriously breaking things.

`brew install wine` installs version 2.0.1. Trying to get .NET installed there (via winetricks) gives the following error:

------------------------------------------------------
sha256sum mismatch!  Rename /Users/bradorego/.cache/winetricks/dotnet30/dotnetfx3.exe and try again.
------------------------------------------------------

Trying to run Launcher.exe without explicitly installing .NET gives the errors mentioned in the previous thread.

I had some success manually downloading the updates (https://www.phantasystaronline.net/forum/index.php?/downloads/) and copying the files into the directory, but that spontaneously stopped working after the latest update (it actually worked for a bit then for some reason stopped).

I'm currently trying PlayOnMac to see if that's any better. So far trying to install dotnet45 there has failed at all.

I'm running out of options/ideas here :(

Reading on your previus treath it seams you haven't set wine to run under a 32bits architecture. you can achieve that with a simple line that i mentioned above.

try to set the wine to run for 32 after that install the dotnet45. let me know the results.

thanks.
