WINE and winetricks giving me a headache

Post by mustdos »

I installed wine only to find out I still need additional files to run it properly, so I installed winetricks only to find out that it can't grab or download the additional files properly; it just gives me errors related to sha256 that I should rename my files in the .cache folder which I find to be properly named or it simply says it can't find a DLL after I mark it for installation.

What should I do?

I'm using AntiX 19.3

I was trying to run Earth 2150 and C-evo, both of which are not present in the Linux world and had high rating s in the wine app db

AntiX (Debian Buster) has an older version of winetricks.
You should be able to update winetricks with:

Code: Select all

sudo winetricks --self-update
