Is there real time support communities around wine? I have some software that doesn't work. (X-tool Studio, not yet in WineHQ).

It looks like winehq has a few IRC channels. Never tried any of them myself though: https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/wikis/IRC

Wine is honestly shit for most things outside of gaming. It looks like it works in Wine though.

Unfortunately that is the previous iteration of the Xtool software

Oh sorry. Have you tried running the new version in Wine?

[–] sem@piefed.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yeah and I get an error, but not sure what it means. I went into #winehq on libera but so far no notifications

UPDATE: I installed the "development" version from wineHQ, and now it works. https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/wikis/Download

If I double click on the icon, I get this error: https://bpa.st44nq/
(Starts with A Javascript error occurred in the main process)

If I try running it in terminal, I get the following errors before I ctrl-c: https://bpa.st/VMXQ
(Starts with 0128:err:winediag:ntlm_check_version ntlm_auth was not found.)
