3 Installation 3.1 DDO 3.2 PyLotRO 4 Configuration 5 Clean Up 6 Resources About Dungeons & Dragons Online is a MMORPG similar to World of Warcraft. DDO usually appeals to more mature RPG fans and focuses more on exploring and completing quests in dungeons rather than on terrain. DDO is free to play and doesn't require month subscription fees like WoW but unlike WoW players will often find that leveling will require buying additional modules that grant access to certain quests and areas. What Doesn't Work As with all complex games run in Wine, there is a performance penalty. For medium level graphic cards you're probably better off playing DDO in Windows, or accept changing graphic settings from High to Low. Opening video will be choppy unless clicked on. Opening video will not have sound for users with OSS. DirectX 10 support cannot be used as it is not supported in Wine yet. Window Manager will occasionally steal mouse-clicks on startup (pressing another key like PrintScreen can sometimes fix this). Installation First a recent version of Wine will need to be installed, then DDO, and then PyLotRO (Python Lord of the Rings Online) will need to be installed to logon to the Turbine servers. This guide is based on the WineHQ AppDB entry that may or may not be more up to date than this article. DDO If you have already installed DDO on a Windows version skip to #PyLotRO. You will need an account to play. Sign up for an account on the Dungeons & Dragons Online website. After you have gotten an account, you will need to download an older installer. The installer you will be directed to download after signing up will not run properly with Wine. The older version of the installer will need to be downloaded and then the game client will need to be updated after that. wget http://download.ddo.level3.turbine.com/largecontent/ddo/mod8/downloader/live/standardres/DDO-US-Mod8-Downloader-StandardRes.exe wget http://download.ddo.level3.turbine.com/largecontent/ddo/mod8/downloader/live/highres/DDO-US-Mod8-Downloader-HighRes.exe The HighRes installer is recommended as settings can be reduced after that. EU locales will need to use a different installer (and possibly account too). Start the installer by: wine DO-US-Mod8-Downloader-HighRes.exe The installer will first download files of about 4GB before installing. After the download, installing to the default location is fine. When the installer gets to installing the .NET Framework it will error (Application has generated an exception that could not be handled) and the .NE
