MQ2 In Linux

[dbcooper]

Hey there

I noticed that when this was last brought up, it was met with a lot of juvenile negativity about running EQ and the like in linux. Don't let any of this draw you away from using linux the way you want to. It's usually easier than you think, and I for one encourage everyone interested to jump in head first, because the more linux users out there, the more support linux will draw for all applications.

First of all, EQ is fairly easily run in linux using Wine. Refer to the wine appdb for plenty of help running EQ in linux. EQ runs nearly as well for me on wine as it does in windows, and it allows me to boot windows, which I loathe, almost never.

Running MQ in linux is even less difficult. For the simplest method, but one that requires one addition windows boot, do the following steps:

1. Download MQ on linux distro, and use wine to run MQ2Auth.

2. Copy this source over to windows distro with a flash drive or whatever, and compile the source using VC.

3. Copy it all back over to linux, and run it.......

4. Enjoy


You will come across grief trying to compile the source in linux because of the way it's packaged, so just do it in windows, and use it in linux, no biggie. Once running in linux, mq has no problem interacting with EQ running on wine. I hope this will encourage more experimentation in linux.

I've been running 4-6 toons on my laptop for a year or more under WINE.

Some notes:

• I compile in a XP VM
  Lag-O-Meter uses significant CPU, consider F11
  UI uses signficant CPU, consider conditional F10 (needed to interact with spell gems)
  WinEQ2 doesn't work (keyboard and scaling issues)
  AHK works (AHK + bash == autolaunch)
  EQBCS works (native)
  NVIDIA drivers have been rock solid for this
  BG baz trader uses ~6% CPU

Thank you, man.

I've been trying to get MQ compiled in Gentoo for a long time, it just didn't occur to me to run MQ2Auth with wine and compile in windows. I feel stupid as hell but now I can just have my roomate compile it on his xp machine and be all set!
