Hi Michael,
actually it's really simple to install MoI 4.0 on Solus Linux Gnome edition
1: Install wine from the Solus repository (currently version 3.7)
2: Open a terminal and install MoI 4.0 as if dealing with a msi package using the following:
wine start moi_v4_beta_Feb-9-2018_setup.exe
("start" makes the difference and triggers the installation and the download of something required)
3: During the installation process, enter the license key and select the option for a desktop icon too
4: Start Moi3D v4 by clicking on the desktop icon and enter the license key again
MoI 4.0 runs like a native application!
Great job Michael! Thank you!
skipper

This is very disheartening :(

Hi Sebastian,

Yes, unfortunately there are several things that make it pretty difficult and I would expect quite time consuming for me to attempt. But have you tried running with Wine though?

Hi skipper,
I'm a linux noob runing Solus Budgie, and I'm stuck to the point 2) of your guide.
I have installed wine from the software centre (win 3.14 - Wine compatibility layer for Windows emulation) ... do I have to install something else ?
Because "wine start" from the terminal returns a command not found error :S

Ok, well I have V4 running on Ubuntu (18.04.1 LTS), using WInHQ (
https://wiki.winehq.org/Ubuntu).
All I had to do is to open the .exe installer with the wineloader. (open with...)
It's actually running very well, step loader is multi-threaded, but maybe a little bit slower than native windows (I have to do precise test about this).
Selections are fine, I'm using an old GTX260, with the default Ubuntu driver (Nouveau display driver(open source)).
I need to see if this driver is working fine with Houdini, compared to the proprietary Nvidia one.
Thanks Michael to make that happens !
