Installing on Linux (Original: How would I install this on Linux?) #36

Closed devraza closed 3 years ago

devraza commented 3 years ago

Usage on Linux: Linux works by running dotnet Terraria.dll (or the name of the dll file representing Terraclient in whatever folder you're using) in the location of Terraclient, which should be installed in your steam Terraria folder.

Original post: When I try to run the Terraria.exe (straight after I unpack the zip in my downloads folder, with wine), it tells me I need to install .NET. I have installed dotnet-runtime-5.0, dotnet-sdk-5.0, and aspnetcore via terminal and yet it still doesn't work. I don't know if I am doing this wrong or if this is a bug.

I'm not an expert on this, but this is the same problem most people have when trying to install it. It seems to work suddenly. I would advise both restarting the computer and updating, to start.

You'll, of course, need to install .NET 5.0 (stating for consistency reasons). Linux is untested, but you should be able to launch the .dll through Bash with dotnet. I'm unsure of the corresponding Linux command (if there is one).

Closing due to inactivity, under the assumption this worked.

It worked.
