# CHANGELOG
# [Dadu042] (2020-02-22 07-35)
#  Wine 1.9.20-staging (outdated) -> 3.20 (latest compatible with POL/POM v4.2.x)

#  Translate comments french -> english
# [vi2nano] (2016-10-14 06-45)
#        Updated for Legion
#        Updated wine version to 1.9.20-staging
#        Added Override for msvcp140(native,builtin)

#        commented out dotnet30sp1 install. It's no longer required also (md5 mismatch was inevitable)

# [vi2nano] (2016-06-18 16-38)
#   Updated Wine Version to 1.9.12 (Works with new 6.2.4 patch)

Hello,

I'm a new user of PlayonMac.

I try to install WOW and the "Blizzard Agent Update Windows" doesn't go further than the first half of the blue bar.

I did download wow installer exe from the blizzard web site and I don't understand why it doesn't work.

If you can help me, thank you very much :)

Best regards.

Make sure that your Wine version is set to emulate Windows XP during installation and also making sure you have mscorefonts installed would be a good idea. I am not as familiar with the Mac version but I had that same problem. Once it finished and I was logged in I switched it to Windows 8.1. I am running PoL on Linux using Wine 2.18-staging 64bit. WoW runs perfectly in 64 bit mode and I even got Overwatch as far as the menu before it locked up.

Trying to add "World of Warcraft : Legion" as it's own installer. Trying to get a program approved on here though, is not an easy task.

Here is a link to the own installer: https://www.playonlinux.com/en/app-3053-World_Of_Warcraft__Legion.html

By the way, if you use open source graphic drivers, it's probably a good idea to install "libtxc-dxtn-s2tc0:amd64" and "libtxc-dxtn-s2tc0:i386" packages (or similar name if you don't use a Debian based distribution).

Can I install WOW without the CD? Is there a location for an installer that will work with POL?

works, i can alt+tab if i put it on a Window, or a Window(Fullscreen)... The only problem i am having is with the launcher, to update the game and so, it just runs in a rare way, I will leave here an image of how it looks like... I would love to have it fixed, and if posible if the launcher from play on linux would open the Battle.net

Update to my update. You need to manually change the Config.wtf located in the "World Of Warcraft/WTF" folder. About the 5th line down depending on your config it will say "SET gxApi "D3D11" You just need to change it to "SET gxApi "D3D9" Working on adding this into the script.

How do we run this?
vi2nano
Tuesday 21 June 2016 at 14:58
copy the "New source code" and save into text file. Then in play on linux you need to go to... I think tools and then run local script. I'm not at my computer so I don't remember for sure.. The Config.wtf is saved to the wow folder and needs to be manually moved into the WTF folder for now. Will work on getting that corrected soon. Hopefully they adopt this into the main script to make it easier for users down the road.

Err, I don't remember what I did, but it all failed at some ptrace test request because PoL windows are not mallable and there was no way I could copy the link to ptrace instructions. In any case. I think the error(PoL in term) I did get is related to too many attempts to fix WoW. Thanks for your efforts. Error of failed request: BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)
Major opcode of failed request: 152 (ATIFGLEXTENSION)
Minor opcode of failed request: 66 ()
Serial number of failed request: 13
Current serial number in output stream: 13
vi2nano
Friday 24 June 2016 at 4:03
the ptrace thing is only a requirement to install the dotnet30sp1 which is the only fix to not being able to log in. You have to actually type the command. I can't include it in the script because it requires root access. I included the url in the message so you can visit the winedb page about making that a permanent fix.

Also, That is a graphics related issue. Are you using the Open Source drivers or Proprietary drivers? You should choose to erase and not overwrite. Overwriting alone can cause problems

The problems were previous attempts of fixing stuff actuall through away OS drivers, loaded Prop and used a vga driver. Major mess that I'm still trying to cleanup. Will try the erase once I get quota back as three Wow installations really made a hole.. Thanks.

To answer, create new link under configure to Wow &Wow64, which is where you can also change the version of wine that you are running for the directory. Use + if you don't already have it for it to be downloaded. Tried 1.9.7/1012 butr same effect. Well, wow will start but I get the BLZ51900007 can not connect error for all.. .

Update today;. In fiddling artound with getting WoW working, but without hope as I have a Debnian Jessie system and the Debian solution apparently requires use of Stretch(testing) and a pile of other fiddles. The PoLwiki only talks about wheezy(old stable)

Looking at BatNet entry in PoL, it had an "Update Instructions" which I had never noticed before. Basically it was a GIT command, which I ran, then did the package update/upgrade. I've noticed that the version of BatNet has changed(?) to Ver 1.9.9 and starting BatNet and choosing WoW lead to an automatic login and being able to play WoW.

I have no idea of exactly what I've done, but it works. Hopefully this will encourage others.

Hi guys,

 

Since the release of the pacth 6.2.4 many linux users can't play wow anymore. It stays on "conecting" screen forever.

"This seems to be the issue affecting the majority of users that have posted reports. The primary hypothesis at the moment is that this behavior is caused by a lower-level part of the Linux networking stack (possibly gnutls) which is a runtime dependency for wine causing issues with the cryptography used by the WoW client. This results in the server abruptly ceasing communication with the client, because it isn't expecting the client to respond the way that it does."

Had a few graphics issues. Tested in Window mode.

Change the amount of Video memory i allocated to the vDrive, 768 on my side, running a MacbookPro 9.2 2012 Mid.

Changed the Wine to 1.7.3.6

Everything else is on default.

It works, i can alt+tab if i put it on a Window, or a Window(Fullscreen)... The only problem i am having is with the launcher, to update the game and so, it just runs in a rare way, I will leave here an image of how it looks like... I would love to have it fixed, and if posible if the launcher from play on linux would open the Battle.net launcher instead of the wow.exe file.

http://www.subeimagenes.com/img/captura-de-pantalla-de-2015-07-02-15-59-09-1366236.html

Another problem i am having is that the game doest remember graphics configuration, or sound, or languaje, none of them, so every time i launch it a have to re-configure it.. But i can live with that :v

I'm having the same issue. Went into the directory and tried editing the Config.wtf based on suggestions from http://wowwiki.wikia.com/wiki/Console_variables but when I open WoW after, it overwrites the config.

Works very well. No problems in installation or in-game.

Minor inconvenience in that the default resolution was messed up, but that was easily solved.

Alt+Tab doesn't work, but I can live with that.

Actually you can Alt+Tab if you configure your Game to be on a Window, or to act as a Window(Fullscreen)... Worked for me.

This update needs to be approved, as lots of people are crashing on install with WoD. Also I really don't understand this "Try this update" nonsense, near as I can tell there is *absolutely NO WAY to get this updated script into POL* with playonlinux:// links. Even if you replace the playonlinux:// with http:// it just tells you to open with POL, which of course you can't. Why can't we just download the script and run it from within POL?
