I see that running Minecraft with wine is an option but I’m missing a few things not sure what. What’s packages do I to get Minecraft running on wine?

elijahr2411 commented 3 years ago

Are you talking about running ElementZero, or Minecraft itself?

SurvivalGuy52 commented 3 years ago

I mean for the Minecraft bedrock dedicated server software. And also while we are at for a server with elementzero.

elijahr2411 commented 3 years ago

The regular Bedrock Dedicated Server software cannot be run under wine because it uses windows-only dlls and is restricted in code to Windows 10. However, ElementZero can be run under wine. (As well as supporting plugins)

The recommended method to install ElementZero is Docker, which is actually really easy to install. We have a guide for a Docker install here which includes links to a more noob-friendly guide and even a shell script that auto-installs it for you.

However, you can also install it directly through wine, without docker. For this, you'll need the VCRUNTIME140.DLL from a windows 10 computer. We have a guide for that here

Got you, thanks for the help.

Of course!

Note: you might be able to install vc redist 2015-2019 from winetricks. Or copy from a Windows machine / internet, or maybe even try downloading the installer from microsoft's website and running that.

Note: The installer will require a desktop environment. If you're installing this on a headless server, just copy the files from another machine.
