Hi I am a new linux using and the distro I am using is manjaro. Now the information I am submitting is not 100% confirmed but i do know that the game works with the steps as follows in the link here http://nobodyplaysgames.com/forums/index.php?/topic/86-aion-and-linux-a-guide-by-recorrupt/

I know this because i tried this yesterday 12-2-2017 and the game launches through POL, the issue is once the game loads and i attempt to log in i get an error stating i need to start the game via the NCLauncher. So i then go and try to launch the game through POL and wine with the NClauncher.exe which gives me an error also, so in short the game launches with this link but it's the updater that wont launch......any clue anyone? Also I have only attempted this through the NA client and NOT with the gameforge client.

Hi,

Nice script!

I just tested the script and made some adjustments. Although AION might run better on 64bit, I was not able to install dotnet20sp2 on 64bit virtual drive.

The game launcher requires dotnet to display the web page inside correctly, I don't know if they game actually needs it.

With my adjustments it worked perfectly fine. Only the character selection screen of AION has some display issue I could not resolve. Once inside the game it ran without issues.

Tested with wine stable 1.8.2.

Another comment: I installed MinGW GCC 4.4.0 and Qt 4.8.4 for MingW, copying the mentioned qt4svg.dll to the launcher. That made the message about missing qt4svg.dll disappear, but didn't change anything else (see comments to Padou's report)

Some more information (I am experiencing the same issue):
cami
Saturday 9 August 2014 at 14:28
[Hmm, doesn't seem to be meant for longer replies. No editing, no paragraphs. -.- ] The installer proceeds until GameForge Live is displayed, which comes up as a Black window with "min/max/close" buttons and a "resize" handle. Moving the window sometimes crashes the application. Right-click offers a "reload" function, which loads the background image (bluish bubbles) but nothing else. The only way to complete the installer is closing GameForge Live without having done anything. Relaunching it from the main menu _in_ _debug_ _mode_, in some cases (maybe 5%) allows to fully bring up Gameforge Live with the reload function (make sure you have opened the necessary ports, especially TCP 80, for incoming connections, and no other program is using them. [rant about this requirement suppressed]). With some luck this allows you to launch the AION installer. It then pops up a strange error message. Will post it when I can reproduce it.
cami
Saturday 9 August 2014 at 14:30
Oh yes, and the same goes for the Torrent Ports 6881-6890 (UDP, maybe TCP as well).
cami
Saturday 9 August 2014 at 14:47
The AION installer succeeds, but spouts plenty of messages "err:setupapi:do_file_copyW Unsupported style(s) 0x144". That looks like a problem. Anyway, you can hit "play now", which brings up the mentioned popup window. It says "[Launcher error] Skin window creation failed. Please reinstall the launcher. E03016 GSU NUI_postimg.jpg". Maybe the missing qt4svg.dll is related, maybe there is a problem with image metainformation in that mentioned file - I know that libpng has begun to popup complaints because of broken (yet unnecessary) image metainformation which can be pretty annoying and even make programs stop working.

To insert line breaks, use Shift-Return.
About what you see in logs, remember it's not AION logs, but Wine logs while trying to run AION; As such "not all failures are errors", as I explained some time ago in http://www.playonlinux.com/en/topic-10851-4.html. Specifically the unsupported copy styles are probably not important (probably the Qt stuff too).
cami
Friday 15 August 2014 at 20:19
I expected so and was pretty surprised when Shift-Return sent the comment, but that's not such a big problem. I know the errors are from wine. The Qt stuff is unrelated, but the copy stuff still is suspicious for me, as looking at the AION folder I have the impression that the AION installation, during which they appeared, is incomplete
