Help to download/install perfect world international client.

Post by Inluvwithlinux »

Hello guys!

Im looking for the help of wine community, because I believe nobody else can help me solving my issue.
Recently I installed Linux mint on my pc. All the files from previous OS were lost.
I have a hobby playing 1 pc game - perfect world international. But now I cant download the client, because they have an Arc skin-programm for downloading their games. I was told I need Wine to play games made for windows. So I did. Got Arc. But got stuck - still cant download the game that way.
I'd appreciate every piece of advice and help from all of you guys!

The maintainer notes in the AppDB entry for this appear to be very out of date, but there are some things mentioned in the more recent test reports and comments that you could try. https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager. ... ngId=85204

Hello Inluvwithlinux,

You didn't specify what Wine version you're using. If not 1.7.24 or 1.7.25 please upgrade.
Downloading PWI in Wine 1.6.x fails here as well, but it works in 1.7.24/.25
