Installing and playing in Xubuntu 20.04

Installing Wine to play MapleLegendsHD in Xubuntu

Must have MapleLegendsHD windows version and some files from Mac version, they will be provided.

These set of instructions are for Xubuntu 20.04 done on a clean installation

Step 1: using terminal
First install wine from wineHQ webpage, according to its instructions:

If your system is 64 bit, enable 32 bit architecture (if you haven't already):

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386

Download and add the repository key:
wget -O - https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/winehq.key | sudo apt-key add -

Add the repository:

sudo add-apt-repository 'deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/ focal main'

update packages

sudo apt update


then install stable package:

sudo apt install --install-recommends winehq-stable

and winetricks

sudo apt install winetricks


Step 2: very important

Now we need to install DLL files in order to get Maple to work.
Once wine and winetricks are done installing, do one of two things.


1) If you run 64-bit linux:

Code:

WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.wine winecfg

2) if you run 32-bit linux just run:

Code:

winecfg

and select compatibility with Windows 98 and accept.



Now once that is done creating your wine prefix run:

winetricks

Inside winetricks select these: Select the default wine prefix->Install a Windows DLL or component.

d3dx11_42

• d3dx11_43
  d3dx9_39
  d3dx9_42
  d3dx9_43
  vcrun6sp6

then, install a font, and select core fonts, and wait until it finishes

This all should take a little bit but not too long.

Step 3: time to copy and paste, you can use graphical folder manager if you feel comfortable

copy and paste your MapleLegendshd (windows version) folder to ~/.wine/drive_c

now you must replace some files in MapleLegendsHD folder and in system32 folder, these files can be downloaded from here:

http://www.mediafire.com/file/xltr52lywa90ufu/elpi.zip/file

from system32 folder

ws2_32.dll and ws2help.dll go to ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32

maybe you will find another ws2_32.dll file, just replace it

now, from MapleLegendsHD folder copy or cut these files show below to ~/.wine/drive_c/MapleLegendsHD, replace all files


- ijl15.dll

- MapleLegends.exe

- PCOM.dll

- Sound_DX8.dll


After all these steps you must be ready to go, double click MapleLegends.exe , be patient, it takes its time to run, remember that it is not intended to run in another operating system but windows.
