Linux and Aion


MayBlue-DN

Recommended Posts

Aion runs smoothly on Linux, with a 64bit wine prefix (and wine is NOT an emulator).
You should use wine-staging though (any version from 5.0 onwards).

I play on EU without additional winetricks. For whatever reason I needed "winetricks d3dx9" for NA.
I couldn't make NCLauncher2 to work so far though, you have to keep using the old NCLauncher.

Nobody said Wine is an emulator.

I'm making progress...

I was able to install the old Aion Launcher and run it under wine.

The launcher installed Aion on the new pc.

All looks good up until the choose a char screen. It's just black with a mouse cursor.

I'll check drivers for GPU, but I think I'm missing a package for wine, or need to change a setting or two.

I got Aion up and running in Manjaro Linux.

I followed the advice from: (I still need to play with some settings, but so far so good

 

If you find a way it would be good to go the player support section and post a guide for those that use linux and they don't have the option to use windows.

OMG

Wine (originally an acronym for "Wine Is Not an Emulator")

Yes normie, everyone knows that. This is "Linux-users-trying-to-be-witty-101". I was alive when Linux was created, I had to endure it in university, nobody liked it back in early 2000s.

I was subscribed to comp.os.minix when Linus posted his first process swapping code, which I probably still have a copy of on floppy somewhere.

Linux/*nix is are the most popular operating system in the world, under the hood of Android, IOS, Mac OSX and many other GUIs. Aion already make a version for Android but not *nix desktops, go figure.! The devs are lazy, NCsoft owns GuildWars which has an official port on Wine for Mac OSX and it runs well.

I had Aion running on Linux for years, but it broke when NCsoft introduced the 3rd. party anti-hacking program which wrongly detected Linux as a hack. I noticed that the frame rate under Wine was a lot lower than under windows, but far less graphics related errors and crashes, especially during sieges. So running Aion with Wine is a worthwhile things to do.

Hey, Devs! give Aion Linux support, advertise it will run on Linux, and player base will go up.

It's getting better: I can start Launcher 2, enter id and pw, but then the error is:

google says 인증서를 찾을 수 없습니다.  is "Certificate could not be found"

I'm hoping all I need is another .dll from winetricks, and/or change a setting in one of the files, but I do not want to guess.

Thanks for any help! maybe a link to another website with the information is all we need.

I'm using wine-staging-5.9-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst (I think this is not 5.19, it is 5.9) I use 5.8.11-1-MANJARO (linux58)

Does Wine work with AIon Classic?

I have an Ubuntu 21.04 box that's not doing much.

Yes but unless you know the technicalities to fix issues by yourself, it's better if you try to install it through Lutris. Since there's no longer anti-cheat program, it should work.
