Running RPG Maker MV in Linux (Fedora 22) using Wine

じ☆ve冰风

Hey!

I've used RPG Maker since the first time I touched computers around a decade and a half ago and it warms my heart to see its still kicking with a new version. Although a bit disappointed that there's still no linux official support im thrilled that running it under linux (in my case Fedora 22) is a breeze using the fabled Wine. And if you want to run it too, here's a short how-to  


 



First thing you have to do is to get Wine installed. For those who are unfamiliar with Wine, it is a compatibility layer (not an emulator, if you call it an emulator some angry Wine fan will track you down and uhh... hack your WoW account or something). Anyways, Wine acts as a middleware between an application and your OS, translating Windows calls to native linux ones your OS can run. Head over to https://www.winehq.org/download/ and follow the instructions to get it installed.

Once Wine is installed, install RPG Maker MV as you would normally on Windows by double clicking  the setup.exe.

* You can also start the installer through command line by running

wine /path/to/Setup.exe** You can also start it up through Wine File utility. (which is included by default in most Wine distributions)

Installation should complete without any issues. After installing, we need to change a specific configuration for RPG Maker MV.

Open Wine Configuration (wincfg from terminal) and in the Applications tab click Add application.





In the popup window browse to where you installed RPG Maker MV and select RPGMV.exe. By default its installed in C:\Program Files (x86)\KADOKAWA\RPGMV

Hit ok and then, back to the main window, switch to the Libraries tab, and  in  the New override for library field put msvcr120 and hit Add. The configuration window should look like this:





Hit OK and you're ready to run RPG Maker MV!

Run it in the  same way you ran the installer. The executable will be in your wine folder where you installed it.

You can run it from command line using:

wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)/KADOKAWA/RPGMV/RPGMV.exeOr, find it using Wine File utility program and double click it there.

Happy RPG Making.
