Yes I've seen that but the link to wine's page on setting it up gives me a 404 error

Re: How can I get Space Station Thirteen to run on linux?
Also when I was trying to follow the instructions it mentioned "Assuming a prefix of 'your/prefix/path'" I'm kind of ashamed to say I stopped following the guide at that point because I have no idea what that means and several internet searches later failed to elucidate what it meant to me.

I did manage to get Byond client up n running.
Never played any of the games showing up and am not sure I want to sign up to any server.
Where your installation fails?
1. created the prefix:
WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/Games/BYOND/ winecfg
2. installed some prerequisites via winetricks:
env WINEPREFIX=~/Games/BYOND/ winetricks corefonts wsh56 wsh57 jscript mfc42 vcrun6 vcrun2013 ie8
Skipped "updates" when ie8 installer (jeez how long ago the last time was!) asked me to install. In the end I picked "restart later".
3. dowloaded & installed BYOND
env WINEPREFIX=~/Games/BYOND/ wine 514.1589_byond.exe
4. ran the program
env WINEPREFIX=~/Games/BYOND/drive_c/Program Files/BYOND/bin wine byond.exe

Re: How can I get Space Station Thirteen to run on linux?
I'm amazed you got it up and running, I followed the directions linked in the page, I got a couple of errors telling me I can't execute the command because it's a 64 bit action and I pressed onwards after changing WINEARCH=32 to WINEARCH=64 but that caused several other things to not install correctly so I stopped thereMiZoG wrote: ⤴Mon Nov 07, 2022 12:50 pm I did manage to get Byond client up n running.

Re: How can I get Space Station Thirteen to run on linux?
Alright I figured out I simply had to type "sudo apt install wine32" to fix the problem, I can't overstate how much I enjoy this operating system and how helpful everyone is, going to post an update later today trying the suggested commands you were telling me about now

THE SPACE STATION, THE SPACE STATION IS REAL
I ended up having to run this command instead
env WINEPREFIX=~/Games/BYOND wine "C:/Program Files/BYOND/bin/byond.exe"
But as you can see it works perfectly
