    Run Lego Rock Raiders on Ubuntu 17.10

    I managed to get the game working under wine without playonlinux. 1. First install wine and winetricks: sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install wine32 winetricks 2. Then run the following commands: export WINEPREFIX="/home/YOURUSERNAME/.wineprefixes/legorr/" export WINEARCH="win32" mkdir -p /home/YOURUSERNAME/.wineprefixes/legorr/ winetricks corefonts 3. Next, cd to the Lego Rock Raiders CD 4. Run the setup with wine: wine Setup.exe 5. Just install normally. Be sure to install DirectX and direct media. 6. Copy d3drm.dll: cp PATH_TO_D3DRM.DLL /home/YOURUSERNAME/.wineprefixes/legorr/dosdevices/c:/Program\ Files/LEGO\ Media/Rock\ Raiders/d3drm.dll You will have Rock Raiders shortcuts on your desktop to start the game. It is also possible to start it directly (useful for running e.g. cafeteria) env WINEPREFIX="/home/YOURUSERNAME/.wineprefixes/legorr/" wine /home/YOURUSERNAME/.wineprefixes/legorr/dosdevices/c:/Program\ Files/LEGO\ Media/Games/Rock\ Raiders/LegoRR.exe For me, the game runs very well. There are some minor graphical problems, namely that transparent overlays are not rendered (e.g. when you select a tile, or when you give orders to drill a wall, you don't see that). The game is perfectly playable without this, but it can be a bit annoying (e.g. when trying to build something). Some effects like smoke from lava turn white or green but are still visible. NOTE: Sometimes, after exiting the game, the resolution stays on 640x800. You can change it back to the correct resolution with nvidia x server settings (or a reboot also does the trick)
