Hello, I was working on setting up a Windows game to work on all the Linux machines I have, but I don't want to install the full blown Wine on each one. Is there a way to "bottle" Wine with application binaries and make it all work from a single folder and have it totally self sufficient (similar to TransGaming's Cedega for Linux with EVE Online)?
Sure, you can just copy the full wine install into the wineprefix you created for your game, e.g. I usually put a "wine" folder next to the drive_c into my wine prefix for that. Then just make yourself a startup script for you game in which you set you PATH to search "$WINEPREFIX/wine/bin" first. This is basically how PlayOnLinux does it. Hope that helps -Tim
