Cinema 4d + Wine running problems.
I'm using the tutorial on http://www.liquid-light.org/index.ph...mid=44&lang=en
for getting Cinema4d to work under wine in Linux.. It says to just copy the directory from an already installed Cinema4d into your wine folder and try to run it, so I copied my windows installation into the correct .wine dir folders. I try to run it by CDing into the directory in the .wine directory and using wine "CINEMA 4D.exe" and Cinema 4d gives me an error: Cinema 4D (name of window that pops up) Internal Error: String Resource not found! The 'resource' directory seems to be corrupt or missing. What should I do? On the tutorial page it says this about this error: Quote:
But when i try using wine "C:\\CINEMA 4D R9\\CINEMA 4D.exe" it says Code:
[bdd86@42-60 ~]$ wine "C:\\CINEMA 4D R9\\CINEMA 4D.exe" My CInema 4d directory on my linux filesystem is located here: /home/bdd86/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/C4D Studio Bundle v9.012 Ill donate 10$ to linuxquestions.org if someone can get CInema 4d running on my system. |
I'm sorry to bump this but I'm Eagerly awaiting help for this. I want to remove Windows and resize my linux partitions 40+ GB. But to do this I need CInema 4d working on Linux.
Ill donate 10$ to linuxquestions.org if someone can get CInema 4d running on my system. |
Anybody????? I Would belive for a linux expert this question should be pretty easy to answer>..

This is not easy to answer. Different copyprotect schemes use different tricks to determine wether the copy is legal or not. There's no chance Wine could satisfy all of these. Also not every Windows function/feature is emulated by Wine. It's not a genuine Windows after all.

I Didnt ask for your opinion on how hard it is Emerson, I asked for a solution. This has been done before I gave you the link that I used to do it. Actually all I'm asking is what is the meaning and would be the equivelent of wine "C:\\CINEMA 4D R9\\CINEMA 4D.exe" if my CINEMA 4d.exe file was located in /home/bdd86/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/C4D Studio Bundle v9.012
Now surley you know enough to answer that, you after all have 977 posts. |
Well, sorry for not reading your post carefully enough. And sorry for replying in this thread at all. Why you think you can command other members of this forum? I can see you are frustrated, this is still no excuse. About your command line, wine "C:\\Program Files\\C4D ... " should do.

Thank you, I'm very frustrated. I appreciate everyones help on this forum so much. Every time I see a question I can answer I take my time to figure out the answer and try to help out. And i appreciate you doing the same, thanks!

I feel bad asking how to fix this because this looks hard. But the info you gave me helped alot emmerson, the program started and the splash screen loaded up to "Loading user interface" then dissappeared and in the console it showed this from start to finish:
Code:
[bdd86@42-60 ~]$ wine 'C:\\Program Files\\C4D Studio Bundle v9.012\\CINEMA 4D.exe' Edit 1: BTW I used the files from Windows installation and copied them to linux and used that. I'm not sure, maybe this is the problem? But this is what the tutorial says to do I THINK. Not to easy to understand that tutorial. |
I will add an addition 20$ if this can be answered. I use C4D for my studio and definately need an answer, windows is going communist on me
|
I'm not a Windows expert and cannot tell for sure what error it is. Possibly some MS DirectDraw function which is not supported by Wine. I may be copletely wrong here. You can try installing W98SE, C4D on it and configure Wine to use this existing Windows installation. I believe Wine developers suggest this as last resort.
