Has anybody been successful in getting Decal to work in Linux? I was able to install it via an executable msi through Wine, nad it shows up in my systray and is able to update. It just doesn't show up in game.
Any ideas?

I don't think it works because the version of .net that is needed doesn't run under wine (at least last time I checked).

I have to take my reply back. It looks like WINE now can run the .net framework 2.0. Did you try installing .net 2.0 before WINE?

I have gotten Decal running in WINE, but without .NET. Some messing around was required, mainly with the registry. I did not install with the installer.

OK .. thats means that you got AC running on WINE? (I know .. its a dum question to ask, base on what you just said)
If AC is running on WINE .. what are the advanatges to doing so?

If you have a NVidia GeForce that is the 8000 series or up, the big advantage to running AC on WINE is that the sky flicker bug doesn't exist. This is the sole reason I run AC in Linux.

You also don't need ACDualClient to run multiple instances of the game, simply copy your wineprefix directory.
