Here is my script.
http://www.playonlinux.com/repository/?script=998
It forks, but sometimes game doesnt start. Pol says that:

[POL_Wine] Message: Wine return: 0

Deleted, official retail version do not work with wine actually, we wait for official wine fix.

I can make a video where I run the game and it works, even in youtube there are lots of videos where people runs Skyrim on their linux distr.
For example:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CoQl9aOfejM
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wpsmwObqpeE
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=alNIcS5w6x0

So, it works via wine, but I don't like how is it work.

I understand, but as long as it do not work with retail exe/launcher, it cannot be added to PoL repository. Without the launcher, configuring this game is a real pain.

Thx for your work anyway, any help is appreciated, as soon as you can make it work with retail/untouched launcher, repost your script and I will be glad to add it

I wont send my script for validation until Skyrim works correctly. I've posted it just for people who wants to test the script. =) I never sent my scripts which weren't tested on retail versions of the apps.


This script was tested on my friends repack of skyrim. Soon I will buy skyrim and I'll try to make it playable by changing some parts of the script.

Wow, why did you delete my script?????? I need it to make a tests... Very bad...

I've created a new version of the script.
http://www.playonlinux.com/repository/?script=1005
It works perfectly. The game launcher works the same-perfectly. I'm sure that if somebody try to install the retail version of the skyrim by my script it will work.

Here is the screenshots.

If you don't want do download it or you can't download it, just write me in skype (norrgeman)

If anybody have already tested my script, tell about result in this topic please.

I tested your script. It works for the installation but I have an error when I launch the game (SkyrimLauncher.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close)

How could I fix that?

Try to run your game with enabled debugging. Than go to the /home/yourname/.PlayOnLinux/tmp and find there a log file of skyrim. Paste here what is inside the log file. If you can- show me some screenshots. And finaly tell me about what version of the game do you use, did you buy it or download it?

Be carefull of what you ask, we do not support piracy, only genuine/legit games are supported.

I'm Just trying to help him. I know that POL doesnt like piracy, but how can I help him\her if I do not know what version of game or app he or she has? If you want me not to help- just ask.

Let's be crystal clear, the only genuine/supported case for skyrim is steam version, because both boxed and digital use steam, so no razor1911 install, no crack, nothing, just legit files.

Now if you want to help people to make their legit version (and only legit) to work, you're welcome.

I cant help anybody with skyrim, because I haven't got steam version of skyrim.

I have tested the script whith the original version of Skyrim and it runs well.

You just have to make it available for the Steam Version ;)

Hello.

I have tested with the script and boxed version of Skyrim, install goes well, update goes well but game crashes at launch. I get a wine Error.

Any help would be hot

GNU_Raziel j'ai vu que c'est toi qui avait écrit le script et qui a l'air de suivre officiellement le debugging ici, j'en profites pour te notifier que je suis français également si c'est mieux pour toi de communiquer en français (je ne sais pas quel est la politique du forum).

Thanks !

Forum policy is to write in french in the french forum and to write in english in the english forum.
