Wine hq staging plays games that the wine staging appimage doesn't

[ruanformigoni]

Hi @Blad3forc3 , I'll release an arts package to replace appimage in the future. That should resolve some of these issues. To build your own wine appimage download this file and use appimage-builder. The command would be something like appimage-builder --recipe wine-staging.yml and this would generate the wine appimage. You can also try this version without the video drivers embed in the image:

version: 1

script:
  # Remove any previous build cache data
  - rm -rf AppDir appimage-builder-cache/var/cache/apt/archives/*wine* || true
  - mkdir AppDir && cp wrapper AppDir
  # Add winetricks
  - wget -q "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Winetricks/winetricks/master/src/winetricks" -P ./AppDir/bin && chmod +x ./AppDir/bin/winetricks
  # Copy App icon to AppDir/usr/share/icons needed prior to appimage-builder ver 1.x.x
  - mkdir -p AppDir/usr/share/icons ; cp doc/logo-wine.svg AppDir/usr/share/icons/wine.svg

AppDir:
  path: ./AppDir

  app_info:
    id: org.winehq.wine
    name: wine
    icon: wine
    version: !ENV ${version_wine}
    exec: bin/bash
    exec_args: wrapper $@

I've tried building as you wrote but all i'm getting is lots of errors with your recipe file.

[ruanformigoni]

It is probably with appimage-builder and not the recipe. Could you post the log output?

The indentation in the file needs to be exact, try to download the raw file here, just right click and choose save as.

[Blad3forc3]

OK, ive got a different error now

[ruanformigoni]

Cool, now I think you can replace version: !ENV ${version_wine} with something like version: 8.4.0.

[Blad3forc3]

I've tried replacing the version with the latest (8.5.0) and get this error

[ruanformigoni]

Ok, you have to download the wrapper script, with this exact name, and save in the same folder that you saved the recipe.

[ruanformigoni]

It would be best if you could clone the entire repository, and do this within it. There are other files the script will search for. git clone https://github.com/ruanformigoni/wine

[ruanformigoni]

Here is wine 8.2 packed with arts if you want to try it out, to avoid the work of building an appimage yourself.

[Blad3forc3]

Seems to be working now thanks RUan. After its finished can i just rename it to wine and replace the wine inside the AppDir/usr/bin inside the appimage to created?

[ruanformigoni]

Yes, that is what I do :)

[Blad3forc3]

Ok, Thanks Ruan!!! I will try the version with arts tomorrow and report back!

[ruanformigoni]

No problem, thanks for the feedback!

[ruanformigoni]

AppImage support dropped, flatimage should now offer less unexpected behaviors such as this one.
