Talk:Mod Tool

Success with Wine?

Hmm, seems like the notes below belong on a page related to Paradox's addon, don't they? ^_^ Anyway, I want to ask if anyone has gotten Mod Tool to run in Wine. It pretty much crashes when I attempt to do anything, using Wine 1.8.6 on Mac, which seems to be the latest version available. So I'm wondering if anyone else has tried Wine, perhaps in Linux. --Iritscen (talk) 18:14, 29 December 2016 (CET)

I think I put the notes here because back then the addon page didn't existed. Will move it. And "nope" about Wine. --paradox-01 (talk) 22:56, 29 December 2016 (CET)

Oh well, I thought I'd ask anyway. I wanted to see what you've done so far with your addon, it sounds pretty comprehensive. Maybe someone else will see my question someday and have an answer. For whatever reason, Wine's AppDB barely has an entry for XSI at all (and what's there is unhelpful); I would have thought more people were interested in running it on other systems since it's free. Well, I recently got into using VirtualBox (since I don't currently own a copy of Parallels or Fusion), and it works well for ordinary Windows installs, so I can probably use that to run XSI. And VBox is probably better integrated with the macOS than Wine is anyway. --Iritscen (talk) 23:39, 29 December 2016 (CET)
