Runs on Linux with wine version 9.0 or better

[pickworthi]

Not an issue, I know, but I thought the Linux tribe would like to know this.

I have tried DSMapStudio on wine version 7, it crashes with a vulkan error. On wine version 8, it loads and displays, but freezes when I open an existing project.

On wine version 9, it just works (TM). You can check your vulkan version as follows:

vulkaninfo | grep -i apiversion

and your GPU device as follows:

glxinfo | grep -i device

It did not need any fiddling at all, just create a wineprefix using distribution provided wine package, and run it. For example:

mkdir -p <your-wineprefix-path>
export WINEPREFIX=<your-wineprefix-path>
wineboot --init
wine <path-to-DSMapStudio.exe>

I have only tried the parameter editor on Armored Core 6 so far, and it works.

This is big news, at least it is for me :-) I'm hoping that others searching for how to run DSMapStudion on Linux will find this. Don't expect any feedback, and feel free to just close this issue.

Moved some information into the readme, closing the issue for now.
