I could not manage to make the GameLauncher run.

 



#!/bin/bash
# Date : (2019-08-28)
# Last revision : see Changelog
# Wine version used : see Changelog
# Distribution used to test : XUbuntu 18.04 x64
# Author : Dadu042
# Licence : Retail
# Only For : http://www.playonmac.com
#
# TESTED: GameLauncher_2.0.3.9.zip (2019).
#
# Middlewares used by this software : DirectX 9, Dotnet 3 (for Soapbox).
# Game engine used : .
#
# CHANGELOG
# [Dadu042] (2019-08-28)
#   First script.
#
#
# KNOWN ISSUES:
#  - Wine 3.0.3 x64: crash when launching. Need Dotnet 3 but x64 compatible.
#  - Wine 3.0.3 x32: Dotnet40. Unhandled Exception: System.MissingMethodException: Method not found: 'System.Threading.Tasks.Task System.Threading.Tasks.Task.Run(System.Action)'.
#  - Wine 4.0.2 x32: crash when launching.
#  - Wine 4.15 x32: crash when launching.
#
#
# Ideas to improve this script: ask to select the archive file, then decide what is the file extension (ie: RAR or ZIP or 7Z...).
