Runs on linux w/ wine

[RepComm]

This isn't an actual issue, but I thought it would be useful for the people wanting to run on linux.

This runs successfully on Ubuntu x86 64bit gnome desktop using steam proton 6.3-5 I don't know if graphics drivers need to be specific (probably not), but I'm using Nvidia server driver 460.

Configuration:

• Requires steam app for linux installed
• Requires adding Proton 6.3-5 : Navigate to steam Library in the app, search for Proton 6.3-5 and install it / wait for download to finish
• Download latest SWBF unmunge binaries, extract them to some folder (mine is in ~/Downloads/swbf-unmunge)
• Create a .desktop file so you can import into steam later:

I named mine swbf-unmunge.desktop, heres the content:

[Desktop Entry]
Name=swbf-unmunge
Comment=unmunge
Exec=/home/jon/Downloads/swbf-unmunge/swbf-unmunge.exe -file /home/jon/Downloads/swbf-unmunge/file.lvl -version swbf -outversion swbf -imgfmt png -platform pc -verbose -mode extract
Icon=steam
Terminal=true
Type=Application

You need to change the line Exec= to the location of your installed swbf-unmunge.exe path After the exe comes the arguments for the file you want to run it on. You'll need to follow the swbf-unmunge readme for the proper arguments, as well as point to the proper file (I just rename whatever LVL like rep.lvl to file.lvl for convenience).

Add the swbf-unmunge.desktop file to steam:

• Go to steam library
• Bottom left corner: Add Game
• "Add non-steam game"
• "Browse..." and find your swbf-unmunge.desktop file
• "Add selected programs"
• Click on the newly added app in your library
• Open manager by clicking on gear icon on far right
• Open "Properties"
• Click on Compatibility
• Check "Force use of specific steam play compat tool"
• Select the proton version you installed earlier

Now you can start the app and it will execute the command line options you added. If you want to edit the command line options you can now set them in the app's properties in the shortcut tab, where it is labelled as Launch options.

Just an update that worked for me recently on Ubuntu 20.04 and wine 8.0.2 install via apt-get

wine ./swbf-unmunge.exe -file ./imp.lvl -version swbf -outversion swbf -imgfmt png -platform pc -verbose -mode extract

worked just fine, no proton or dependency installations, or wine prefix pre-configs.

I am curious ... Can't you build swbf-unmunge natively on Linux?
