At this point the application will likely ask you to synchronize the list of scripts with the server, allow it to do so. Open up PlayOnLinux, and click on Install button. This is as easy as: $ sudo pacman -S playonlinux
It then just requires some fine minor tweaks for everything to play nicely under Arch Linux. You can create your own app configurations on PlayOnLinux, but fortunately someone already created one for the game we want. PlayOnLinux creates individual wine " bottles" for each software you install, which allows for each software to run with a specific set of configurations know to work best for that particular case, with the added bonus of greater isolating of the software. If you never heard of it, you can think of it as a wrapper on top of Wine, the compatibility layer that allows for Windows's software to run natively on Linux. My preferred way to have it run was trough PlayOnLinux. In fact after some time installing it ran pretty well! This in turn made me wanna share how I got it working and how you too can also get it working! Installing the game I bough the game, knowing that sadly it had no native Linux support. It was one of my favourite games growing up and the new edition has HD graphics, there's a couple of new expansions, with new campaigns and civilizations :). Nowadays a lot of the game engines are linux-compatible, and therefore there's a good amount of new games that get Linux support upon release.Īge of Empires II is an old game that recently got a remix from Microsoft. Valve changed the world of games on Linux for the better when they decided to bet on Linux as the base for SteamOS, their fine-tuned operating system made to run on prebuilt computers called Steam Machines.
