Test Installing Game?

[Hacksaurus_Babu]

I know this sounds extremely n00by, and that I should be smart enough to get this working on my own, but I just can't seem to get it to work...
The game is called Superfighters Deluxe (Its a really fun game trust me), and currently its in Alpha... After the transition from Alpha to Beta something happened... I couldn't get the game to run... Turns out that I needed to install dotnet45 instead 40, so I did do it... But now the game does not connect to any games... The actual game does not crash, and no apparent errors come from it... I have dotnet45, xna40, and d3dx9 installed on that prefix and SFD of course...

Here's my output:

The download for the game:

If anybody could just attempt to install the game would be appreciated...
Thanks for any help!

Hiya

Just tested the game with Wine-Staging 1.9.23. It works fine for me with:

Code: Select all

winetricks dotnet452 xna40

Including browsing and connecting to lobby games.

You need to fix:

Code: Select all

err:winediag:IcmpCreateFile Failed to use ICMP (network ping), this requires special permissions.

You couldn't ask for clearer error message than that...


See WineHQ FAQ: 10.3.4 Failed to use ICMP (network ping), this requires special permissions to fix the issue...

Yet again... This why Wine users should head read the WineHQ (Wiki) FAQ first rather than using the WineHQ forum as a crutch ... It really comes over as tl;dr laziness of the modern era... Sad times...

I actually tried doing that fix... And it didn't work so I installed using root (I know it's bad...) Didnt get that error... And still couldn't connect... And do you mean dotnet45?

Yeah I would run wine as root that's really insecure... I'm sure you've read WineHQ FAQ: 6.2 Should I run Wine as root?...

No I meant dotnet452. That's what I did.

Try re-installing the game in a clean 32-bit Wineprefix.

What distribution are you using?
The WineHQ packages for Ubuntu, for example, install the main wine executables in:

Code: Select all

/opt/wine-staging/bin/
# or
/opt/wine-devel/bin/

so you'd probably have to alter the command from the FAQ to be:

Code: Select all

sudo setcap cap_net_raw+epi /opt/wine-staging/bin/wine-preloader
# or
sudo setcap cap_net_raw+epi /opt/wine-devel/bin/wine-preloader

Also you might need (but probably not for a 32-bit Wineprefix/32-bit Windows application):

Code: Select all

sudo setcap cap_net_raw+epi /opt/wine-staging/bin/wine64-preloader
# or
sudo setcap cap_net_raw+epi /opt/wine-devel/bin/wine64-preloader

I see no reason why that command shouldn't work - unless you're using a distribution like Fedora - with an SELinux profile enabled...

Ok... So adding the permissions... worked... and didn't work. So what happened is that wine now could not use wine, so I had remove the permissions... And I tried install dotnet452, BUT winetricks did not find it... So I am really confused on what is happening... And yes, I am using Ubuntu.

I'm also really confused as well now!!

What's with:

Code: Select all

winetricksSFD

??

So what happened is that wine now could not use wine

Que?

Any reason why you're not just doing copying on your terminal output - and pasting this directly, inline, using forum

Code: Select all

Code

tags?
Screenshots are only really appropriate for illustrating graphical glitches - in applications running under Wine.

Make sure your winetricks script is fully up-to-date:

Code: Select all

winetricks --version
20161107 - sha1sum: 9a08fd86198fcde30269d54e7701035bf00df8d6

Ok let me restate what I said...

So what happened is that winetricks now could not use wine, so I had remove the permissions...

winetricksSFD is part of by .bash_aliases... This is to make it simpler to use winetricks and wine for multiple prefixes, you can probably see what I did from my .bash_aliases.

Ok, I found out that I has the 2014 script instead of the 2016, so I am gonna install that right now!

(I will now instead use termbin to show errors... Thanks for the reminder!)

Thanks for the help! It works out! Hugs from Arstotska! We should play the game some time together,
