I'm trying to edit an*.Ink of a mod of LotR:BfME2 RoWK but i can't make it work here is a copy of what i'm trying to do:

windows normal link:

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Lord of the Rings, The Rise of the Witch-king\lotrbfme2ep1.exe" -mod "C:\RJ_RotWK_1_06"

the game is installed in

Code: Select all

/home/setlec/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Electronic Arts/The Lord of the Rings, The Rise of the Witch-king/

the mod is installed in

Code: Select all

/home/setlec/.wine/drive_c/rj_rotwk_1_06

i've tried this

Code: Select all

env WINEPREFIX="/home/setlec/.wine" wine "C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Lord of the Rings, The Rise of the Witch-king\lotrbfme2ep1.exe"  -mod "C:\RJ_RotWK_1_06"

but didn't work with the desktop shortcut created in the default instalation...
on the provided *.ink file of the mod (on gnome) i've set as default opening software the game executor itself, normal game was loaded and not the mod.

Any thoughts?

PS:Also i've tried to edit it as TXT file but can't open the file at all.

try in a terminal:
gedit ~/Desktop/LOTR.desktop
then copy from another shortcut, changing what's needed.

i've tried that but nothing worked...

Code: Select all

[Desktop Entry]
Name=RJ-RoWK
Exec=env WINEPREFIX="/home/setlec/.wine" wine "C:\\Program Files\\Electronic Arts\\The Lord of the Rings, The Rise of the Witch-king\\lotrbfme2ep1.exe" -mod "C:\\rj_rotwk_1_06"  
Type=Application
StartupNotify=true
Path=/home/setlec/.wine/dosdevices/c:/rj_rotwk_1_06
Icon=/home/setlec/.local/share/icons/40bb_lotricon.0.png
Name[en_US]=RJ-Rowk

then i've tried this

Code: Select all

[Desktop Entry]
Name=RJ-RoWK
Exec=env WINEPREFIX="/home/setlec/.wine" wine "C:\\Program Files\\Electronic Arts\\The Lord of the Rings, The Rise of the Witch-king\\lotrbfme2ep1.exe" -mod "C:\\rj_rotwk_1_06"  
Type=Application
StartupNotify=true
Path=/home/setlec/.wine/drive_c/rj_rotwk_1_06
Icon=/home/setlec/.local/share/icons/40bb_lotricon.0.png
Name[en_US]=RJ-Rowk

but only the normal game was loaded...

there is a *.lnk file provided but i can't edit at all with wine. and i don't know what to do. wasn't a file explorer with wine?

ignore my previous post. I've found the file manager in wine i've tried to use the proprieties in order to change whatever needs to be changed in the *.LNK but can't load the proprieties window...

1. Have you tryied running from a terminal? type in: cd ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Electronic\ Arts/The\ Lord\ of\ the\ Rings,\ The\ Rise\ of\ the\ Witch-king && wine lotrbfme2ep1.exe -mod ~/.wine/drive_c/rj_rotwk_1_06

2. Try using notepad. Type in a terminal wine ~/location/notepad file.lnk
