Running Ryzom in Wine

Although there is no native way to run Ryzom in Linux, it can be successfully run under Wine without too much trouble. This may also work for Mac, as there is a Mac version of Wine, currently stable on Snow Leopard. The following methods have not yet been tested on Mac - if you can confirm that they work, please do.

The Simple Method

Atys Underground hosts a very simple java application to download and install the Ryzom client, with very little tweaking needed. It is available either as a .jar file, or as a Java webstart applet, and can found here under u.R.D.M. To install Ryzom using u.R.D.M.:

Ryzom should now be fully functional under Wine. If you need to use Ryzom configuration (for example to alter advanced graphical options such as OpenGL/Direct3D), you will need to download it separately, as it is not installed by u.R.D.M. Download ryzom_configuration_rd.exe and its required .dlls here, and extract them into your Ryzom install directory. ryzom_configuration_rd.exe should be usable under Wine.

The u.R.D.M. omits several files which are installed by the official installer. If you run into problems, you may find it useful to add some or all of these files. The files can be found here.
