Thank Zeus for this forum. I spent most of my morning trying to figure out why I couldn't get this to work. After hours figuring out that I just didn't know enough, followed by my adhd wouldn't let me pay attention to everything, followed by I am a linux noob, I finally got it to work and played all of 30 minutes before having to take on my big boy chores.
So thank you all for making this and putting this forum with all of the answers in it if you search for them.
I think I had more fun learning about Linux, wine, and how mods work, then I actually would have playing the game for the 100th time.
