Dungeons & Dragons Online: Eberron Unlimited

Free to play mmo (with cash shop and perks for subscribing) based on d&d 3.5, set in Eberron.

As of wine --version 1.3.37 no special settings or native .dlls are needed, use appdb only as reference if any problems occur.

Checklist for problem free running:

-DDO installed in clean .wine/ (no added registry settings, nothing installed)
-pylotro installed and set up (wizard in menu), either linux or windows version
-DDO updated through pylotro (ddo hangs at loading screen if version mismatch)
-OpenGL support, proprietary ATI or Nvidia drivers needed. Hw demands are very modest.
-Wine version 1.3.37 or later

Feel free to ask questions if your setup differs but please detail differences.

Wine 1.4 is now in the official repositories and has no problems running ddo, if theres any glitches try
the latest beta wine ppa at: http://www.winehq.org/download/ubuntu

go to www.ddo.com for account and download, http://www.lotrolinux.com/download.php
for launcher (thank you ajackson and SNy for making this!)

thanks for the info, I have been following this release, intending to check it out. I've never played DDO before, and was unsure how it ran in wine. I guess I'll have to check it out now.

Seems to be a love/hate game for most, I prefer it over any mmo out there :)

Perfect fit for ubuntu and wine, I run 3 clients at the same time on my feeble X2 4600/2GB+radeon 4650/512MB.
Cpu-wise its fine actually, but memory is tight.

This is on ubuntu jaunty 64bit, wine 1.29 and catalyst 9.10.
I did run into a crash bug, setting texture quality to very low fixed it for now.

OMG thanks so much for this !!!!.

Thanks for the info!

I have been looking for an MMO and I like this one so far. The launcher is just fantastic :D

ok so i have the launcher installed, have an account made, and i downloaded the installer. when i try to run it though it gives me this error:

Code:

---

$ wine ddostandard.exe
Log file is being written to C:\windows\temp\ddostandard.exe.log
err:seh:raise_exception Unhandled exception code c0000005 flags 0 addr 0x6b0d6b

---

Anyone else getting this or know a workaround?

I have an identical error. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm getting it as well with ddohigh.exe

The log says:

im not getting an error but mine says the same thing when i try to install DDO, this happens well before you need LOTRO's program, how do you fix it?

on Wine HQ it looks like it hasnt been tested in 1.29, the WineHQ forums have no info regarding this error, and it looks like noones had a solution yet, could anyone post thier instructions of exactly what they did to get it to operate?

i agree, pls let us know how u got it working if u did

According to another forum this is a known issue with wine, and the only way to successfully install DDO is to use the beta installer (which unfortunately I haven't been able to find anywhere).
