Installing Fallout 3 DLC on Ubuntu
So even linux users want to play games but PC games are mostly made for Windows platform. So here is a guide to install Windows Game - Fallout 3 on Ubuntu
Step 1: Go do www.playonlinux.com and download the ubuntu package (deb file) and run it to install play on linux
Step 2: Open PlayOnLinux and select Games Tab. Select Fallout 3 DLC (Because that is the version I had setup files for). Click Install
Step 3 : If it does not throw any error while installing. Good News! Just give the location of setup file when it asks for setup files by selecting 'Other Location' option
If it gives errors while installing like it did in mine. I got the below error
Runtime error (at -1:0)
Cannot import dll C\users\sourabhinani\Temp\is-40GT7.tmp\isskin.dll
What to do to resolve this error?
Go to the folder where setup file is kept and Open Terminal
Give the command - winetricks vcrun6sp6
This is a helper script which will install required redistributable runtime libraries needed to run some programs in wine.
Finally run wine setup.exe
The installation should start. Happy Gaming!
