Tiberium Wars 3 in Origin install fails.

Post by cncfan »

My System: Manjaro Deepin 17.0.2 64bit wine-2.14 32bit prefix

Installed Origin by this comment by Luca Weiss on WineHQ

"Download http://www.dm.origin.com/download/legacy (legacy OriginThinSetup.exe). Create a fresh wineprefix (32-bit). Run the installer and leave the default options. When Origin launches it will tell you that "Your update could not be completed.". Download origin-a.akamaihd.net/Origin-Client-Download/origin/live/OriginUpdate_9_12_0_34172.zip and put the contents into your_wine_prefix/drive_c/Program\ Files/Origin/ , so that that folder contains a Origin.exe file. You can then start this Origin.exe and log in."

Tried installing DirectX manually by this guide. http://www.dedoimedo.com/games/wine-directx.html

Command and Conquer supposedly works fine in wine, but the Origin install process seems to be at fault.
Thanks all!
