Troubleshooting[edit]
Wine versions[edit]
- It appears Wine 4 doesn't properly render the UI
- 3.21 has some problem with Gnome multi desktop (crasshes when changing desktop)
- 3.0.5 works fine!
- If you can't downgrade wine you should use PlayOnLinux to install AO and the needed components above
HTML rendering[edit]
- If the launcher is having problem rendering HTML, install wine gecko manually
Could not load wine-gecko. HTML rendering will be disabled.
sudo mkdir /usr/share/wine/gecko/ sudo wget -P /usr/share/wine/gecko/ https://dl.winehq.org/wine/wine-gecko/2.47/wine_gecko-2.47-x86.msi sudo wget -P /usr/share/wine/gecko/ https://dl.winehq.org/wine/wine-gecko/2.47/wine_gecko-2.47-x86_64.msi
Mouse problem[edit]
- Most of the time, upgrade Wine version is enough to make the mouse work like a charm
- Activate mouse lag fix in F10 -> Controls -> Mouse -> Mouse lag fix
