+Erik Posted July 20, 2022 Posted July 20, 2022 The simple answer to this is it depends on your abilities and knowledge of Linux based machines. However, it is possible to run a Windows Virtual Machine on a Linux machine so in theory you could do it. Quote
+gerwin Posted July 20, 2022 Posted July 20, 2022 Linux Wine Compat. Layer would be preferable over a slower virtual machine, here is a report on the functionality with WOFF: https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=40352&iTestingId=111344 Quote

According to these posts the WoFF series (UE/PE/BH&H2) should work on Linux, but will require some tinkering. Recommended, as seen in that thread, is WINE (a faster compatibility layer than emulation software - in layman's terms, use WINE instead of installing Windows in a virtual machine on Linux, for gaming). Also, as indicated in those Linux-related posts, you will probably have to check over my lengthy WoFF-on-Mac post too, for further tips on "Winetricks," etc. Cheers, Von S Edited July 20, 2022 by VonS Edited post. 1 Quote
