Post by: BlackCatOfChaos on October 16, 2011, 03:40:56 pm
Okay, since my Windows Vista had to die recently, I've been dying to get back onto FH. Problem: I have no idea how to download it onto my Linux. o.0  Does anyone know? If you do, please help!

A Linux is a type of computer.  I'm supposed to use Wine or something to use FH, but idk how...

I know, but it said on one of the help threads that you could download FH through Wine.  *sigh*  Oh well, guess I'll just have to wait until I get a Windows 7.  Thanks anyway, guys! X3  I'll keep this thread up in case someone has an answer, I guess.

You don't download FH through wine.

Wine is a software that makes your folders in linux work as a windows computer, meaning you can run most windows software on a linux a long with other programs.

What you pretty much do, is you find a Wine download for your linux OS and install it. Once wine is installed you set some preferences up and then you can download the exe from our site here, open the exe with Wine, and then install it onto an imaginary windows proportion wine made earlier.

I'm no expert though since I've only used it once or twice before.

DO NOT download WINE package from the Internet and install it manually because then it won't be automatically updated! You can find the instructions how to install it properly to your Linux distro here: http://www.winehq.org/download/ (http://www.winehq.org/download/)
