Hello!

Many times I have seen questions about playing FS under LINUX. I am playing FS13 and FS17 under Linux Mint 18.3

So, if you face any trouble, let me know.

Yours

Thomas

Are you running FS using Wine? Were any adjustments required? How is the performance? I run dual boot (Fedora/Windows) in order to run things like FS and Sketchup.

Yes, I am running FS 13 and 17 using wine. FS13 runs well with Wine1.6. Version 1.6 is the version in the official repositories. FS17 doesn't work with this version.

If you have installed WINE 1.6, please remove it completely otherwise you will get a conflict between both versions. I am using WINE 3.0. Using this version works well for both FS13 and 17.

On the homepage of Wine you will find the version 3.0 and a guide how to install it properly.

https://wiki.winehq.org/Download

Hope, this helps you.
I didn't have to make any adjustments.

Hello Ethiofarmer,

Did you run FS2019 under linux ?

I tried with playonlinux but i've got a ugly screen inside the game. It works normally with the introduction and the menu.
In game, it's very slow and i can't see the objects normally.

Any idea ?

Hello Berrichon38,
I am not playing FS19 yet. Still I feel very satisfied by FS17. But also with FS17 I got trouble with playonlinux. In the meantime WINE4.0 is released. Have a look on https://wiki.winehq.org/Download to get WINE4.0. This should work well. If you try it, please give me a feedback!

Sincerely
Thomas

I runs fine under Wine 4.0 had it running under the RC version before but that takes a while to compile. Meanwhile the debian packages are released and it's stable. And must say it runs solid.

Hello

After a break, i try again installing FS2019.
I installed a new ubuntu version, the 19.04 release. Then wine 4.0, and after Play On Linux. The FS2019 installation was sucessfull with POL.
I configure wine for FS2019 with windows10. I had a bug about the screen resolution but i modified it in the "game.xml".
The game runs fine for the introduction and the menu. But i got the same problem when i tried to play.

Thanks for your help.

Hello guys,

I tried now also FS19 on WINE4.0. Here we go:

open the folder "/Documents/My Games/FarmingSimulator2019". There you'll find a file named "game.xml". Open it and change the following part:

<renderer>D3D_11</renderer>

into

<renderer>D3D_9</renderer>

(change "eleven" to "nine")
Than it should work properly.

If there is any trouble yet, reduce the graphic settings. On WINE your hardware is not as powerful as on Windows. Maybe one day, GIANTS will start to support LINUX OS.

Hello Kalyo,
I would like to help you, but I don't know, what you have tried.
WINE3.0 or WINE4.0 or do you have trouble with the graphics?

Waiting for your respond.

Hello arnoldkol,

If fs19 is a cracked version I will not help you, even if I knew the problem. GIANTS software is programming one of the greatest simulators and is worth the price for a genuine version.

If you don‘t mind, buy it via Steam and play it via Steamplay (=proton = wine). This runs a ton of windows games without any hassle on linux.
