Trying to run Space Engineers in Wine-staging

[Magic_RB]

I'm trying to run Space Engineers in wine i have dotnet46 installed but no matter what i do i can't get it to not crash, i know it has worked in the past i remember trying to run this game on my laptop (it was horribly slow, but the laptop it self was old af), now it gives me these errors:

@Magic_RB

Make sure you're using an up-to-date version of the winetricks script - see WineHQ Wiki: Winetricks ...

You would need to use:

Code: Select all

winetricks -q dotnet461

in a clean 32-bit WINEPREFIX.
Then try to install your applications.
See the WineHQ FAQ: 6.5.3 How do I create a 32 bit wineprefix on a 64 bit system?

Disclaimer: I find the installers for dotnet4.x can be really flaky - even when installed with winetricks.

Only problem is space engineers run only on 64bit and i tried to install dotnet 4.6.2 in wine 64 and i get the same error

You shouldn't if you're using native .NET; wine-mono should be uninstalled completely from that wineprefix. Winetricks does that for you. If you're doing it yourself, follow the instructions on https://wiki.winehq.org/Mono.

Only problem is space engineers run only on 64bit and i tried to install dotnet 4.6.2 in wine 64 and i get the same error

Winetricks doesn't install 64 bit .NET at all. If you're going to try to do it yourself, you need to manually apply the same workarounds as winetricks, and it still might not work.

Yeah, things don't look too brilliant for this game and Wine compatibility at present...
See: WineHQ AppDB: Games / Simulation Games / Space Engineers ...
100% garbage reports todate...

.Net 4.6.x probably isn't going to work well in a 64-bit WINEPREFIX.
But see: WineHQ AppDB: .NET Framework / 4.6.1 for some installation advice...

Code: Select all

fixme:mscoree:parse_supported_runtime sku=L".NETFramework,Version=v4.6.1" not implemented

That clearly says .NETFramework 4.6.1 - not 4.6.2 ...
Details like that are important!

I am the person who has posted the most recent test data for the most up-to-date version of Space Engineers, and the most recent test data for the "dx9/32-bit" version of space engineers. The closest I have ever been able to get the came to running is the launcher window appearing (i.e. "Now with planets" / "Now in beta") and the game then opening a dialog box saying your graphics card/driver is insufficient. The log files Space Engineers generates always result in

Code: Select all

CreateDevice failed: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

I use a GTX 1070 and the nvidia proprietary driver, if you have an AMD card I would love for you to post some test data so we can work to narrow down the cause and help devs find a solution.

My steps to get Space Engineers running are:
1: Create a new wineprefix, install steam.
2: Install wine-mono (I got an .msi which i ran and installed, I used version 4.7.1)
3: Install winetricks, then install dotnet40 and vbrun6.
4: Try to install and run Space Engineers.

I think I have remembered my steps correctly, if you find a better method, please share it on appdb.
