I'm trying to get the recently released Terraria game to run on my Ubuntu machine. It is a steam game which uses the XNA framework. When I try to install via steam, a dialog comes up about installing XNA, but it gives a message that the install ended prematurely. I googled a little bit for XNA and found this script:
http://www.playonmac.com/repository/?script=780

I tried to run this by following the instructions "Type get:780 into PlayOnLinux search bar to run this script"

When I click apply, it juts closes the window and nothing seems to happen. Can anyone help?

Oh, the XNA install (when run from steam) says it "requires at least Windows XP SP2".

Ok, I got XNA to install, all I had to do was right click, "Configure Wine" and set it to Windows XP (it was set on windows 2000).

Unfortunately I now get this message:
To run this application, you first must install on of the following versions of the .NET Framework:
v.4.0.30319

So I guess I'm stuck again? I installed .NET 2.0 via PlayOnLinux, but I guess that's not enough.

XNA do not work with wine in it's current state, I made this PoL function mainly for tests purpose.
