Heyo! I got linux recently, but I really love BYOND games. I tried using a VM, but that resulted in a torture of my CPU and FPS. So I tried to get it running using wine. I installed that "mfc42.dll" like you're supposed to..

But whenever I attempt to launch, I just get stuck at Loading Game Information.. Forever.

Please help me. I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 64bit

edit: works now
Got IE installed?
Dunno how, could you help with that?
I've never really gotten the newer versions to work, so I always spin up a VM you could also wait for the web client to be more usable.
Ah, this is a peace of cake!

Open op terminal.
winetricks wsh56 wsh57 jscript mfc42 vcrun6
winetricks ie7
winetricks ie8

(IF YOU HAVE A 64-BIT COMPUTER, THEN DO THIS. IF YOU TRIED IE THE FIRST TIME, JUST TRY INSTALLING IT AFTER THIS)
sudo rm -r ~/.wine
rm -r ~/.wine (If it can work)

After that,
WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.wine winecfg
