I have been trying to install a FTP game called Warframe via the windows version of steam. I have installed the launcher, and followed several of the steps on this link: http://www.reddit.com/r/Warframe/commen ... _on_linux/
I have gotten steam working. I installed warframe, and it crashed the first few times. I changed some settings, and it just seems to hang at "Verifying download cache" after downloading the updates.
I am new-ish to Linux. I used to have a linux box, but that died. I recently formatted my windows hard drive with Ubuntu 12.10. My wine version is Wine 1.6. I used to be pretty good with linux and decent with WINE. I don't remember much.
If you need any more info, please tell me how to get it, and I will give you it. Also, I prefer to do most things via terminal, so if you can give me the terminal commands to do this stuff that would be great.

Re: need help installing Warframe
You didn't mention whether you're on 32 or 64 bit. If 64 bit, try creating a 32 bit wineprefix. The AppDB has a reasonably recent test report that explicitly says 64 bit doesn't work. http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.p ... &iId=27982
If that doesn't help, post terminal output.

That is a common issue with Warframe in Wine. Despite the launcher reporting that its verifying the cache it is actually still downloading. Often the D/L does not complete let it run for a while, then manually verify game cache via the launcher settings, repeat till it works. Read through this top on the official Warframe site https://forums.warframe.com/index.php?/ ... with-wine/
I actively keep an eye on it (I didnt start it mind you). Page 5 specificity I outline steps in more detail on how to deal with the never ending "verifying game cache".
GL and feel free to message me on the warframe forums, same user name.
