[Request] Help installing ImageGlass

Hello,

I would like to install ImageGlass with Wine but haven't been able to figure how how.

I'm not very experienced in doing this.

I tried to set it up using the "install a non-listed program" but get stuck installing dotnet7.1. For some reason after it installed the "make your choice" window pops up again and the next button is greyed out. Any ideas what causes this or how I can get the program installed?

 

PS: I'm using PlayOnLinux 4.2.12

 

Here's the repo for it:

https://github.com/d2phap/ImageGlass

 

Edit:

Confirmed requirements: https://github.com/d2phap/ImageGlass/issues/671#issuecomment-570842648

A few things are required before you start a Manual Installation.

  1. Recent Wine version - Use the Wine Manager and install Wine 4.0.3 32-bit and 64-bit
  2. PlayOnLInux 4.3.4 - Download and install from the website
  3. 32-bit Libraries - Search how to install them in your Distribution

Once you have the newest version of PlayOnLinux, you should be able to install dotnet4.7.1

I tried to make a script (for the portable x86 release), but all I get is a crash at launching.

Raybb, you may retry launching the app from the shortcut after installing other functions (ie: Microsoft's Dotnet).

What errors do you get in the crash?

I have seen a few rare games that require DOT Net Framework and it will conflict with Mono.  I was testing Lemma (platform game) in PlayOnLinux and it refused to Launch.  Until I uninstalled Mono, then it worked perfectly.

  • Configure
  • Wine Tab
  • Control Panel
  • Add/Remove Programs
  • Select "Wine Mono"
  • Click Remove

Restart the prefix and now try the game... or try installing dotnet4.7.1 again
