Warhammer Dark Omen - Installation 2024 - Linux Ubuntu 22.04 LTS

Hi all,
There is a section to install Dark Omen on Windows, let's do it for Linux
Maybe it could work with Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. I haven't upgrade my Linux yet.
I assume you have an original CD ISO of the game.
First I want to thanks aqrit and moktira
https://forum.dark-omen.org/help-section/dark-omen-linux-textures-flipped-t1577.0.html
Note:
I don't use "sudo" for many reasons. I prefer directly using root when I need it. So I run the command "su -" to change to root and type many commands.
When you need "Do it as root", if you don't use like me the command "su -", just add "sudo" behind the commands and enter the password if asked.
0) Download and install a fresh Linux Ubuntu 22.04 LTS with the iso below
https://releases.ubuntu.com/jammy/ubuntu-22.04.5-desktop-amd64.iso
1) Install some Linux tools
"Do it as root"
Code:
apt update
apt install vim
apt install zip
apt install unzip
2) Install wine and winetricks
"Do it as root"
Code:
mkdir -pm755 /etc/apt/keyrings
wget -O /etc/apt/keyrings/winehq-archive.key [url]https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/winehq.key[/url]
wget -NP /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ [url]https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/dists/jammy/winehq-jammy.sources[/url]
apt update
apt install --install-recommends winehq-stable
apt install winetricks
3) Create directories
USERNAME is the name you chose when you install Linux
"Do it as your login ( USERNAME )"
Code:
mkdir -p /home/USERNAME/games/warhammer/iso
mkdir -p /home/USERNAME/games/warhammer/sources
mkdir -p /home/USERNAME/games/warhammer/sources/ddwrapper
mkdir -p /home/USERNAME/games/warhammer/data
4) Download or create Warhammer Dark Omen ISO ( for copyrights reasons I cannot put a link - I hope you have the CD / or the ISO )
Mine is the French version, but I can install the english version with it.
If you have a CD version and you want to have a copy ( a iso file ) in Linux :
"Do it as your login ( USERNAME )"
a) Insert the original CD
b) Get infos from your CD
Code:
isoinfo -d -i /dev/sr0 | grep -i -E 'block size|volume size'
You will see something like that
Code:
Logical block size is: xxxx
Volume size is: yyyyyy
where "/dev/sr0" is your CD device on Linux
c) Create your iso file in "/home/USERNAME/games/warhammer/sources"
"Do it as your login ( USERNAME )"
Code:
cd /home/USERNAME/games/warhammer/sources
dd if=/dev/sr0 of=warhammer_dark_omen.iso bs=2048 count=324088 status=progress
where bs=xxxx was "Logical block size is: xxxx"
and count=yyyyyyy "Volume size is: yyyyyy"
xxx=2048
yyyyyy=324088
d) Install fuseiso
"Do it as root"
Code:
apt-get install fuseiso
5) Mount ISO
"Do it as your login ( USERNAME )"
Code:
fuseiso /home/USERNAME/games/warhammer/sources/warhammer_dark_omen.iso /home/USERNAME/games/warhammer/iso/
6) Create Wine architecture / tree
"Do it as your login ( USERNAME )"
Code:
WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX="/home/USERNAME/games/warhammer/data/" winecfg
7) Download and extract abriq ddwrapper archive and files (
http://www.bitpatch.com/ddwrapper.html
)
"Do it as your login ( USERNAME )"
Code:
cd /home/USERNAME/games/warhammer/sources/ddwrapper
wget http://www.bitpatch.com/downloads/ddwrapper.zip
unzip ddwrapper.zip
Download and extract modified DarkOmen files (
https://www.mediafire.com/file/fnnkq89xdjy75m0/DarkOmenMods.zip/file
)
"Do it as your login ( USERNAME )"
Code:
cd /home/USERNAME/games/warhammer/sources/
wget [url]https://download1583.mediafire.com/42o6bu6dfcegiX-0X9Lx3MtFwVB7C2CKhC-N_IuqENy7FHs5L31QJDwYgKPUS_L4FR0Z2h_boP8Qg7qWvHkUS6SlMsBz8csU7J1UPETUgNXocfbj5D29v3-uj2CQsXoBGQn4qaQVlk-anpUfjolvi35v48A6DpF81iGJqNT9IIkT/fnnkq89xdjy75m0/DarkOmenMods.zip[/url]
unzip DarkOmenMods.zip
If the link "
https://download1583.mediafire.com/42o6...
" doesn't work, just open your browser ( Firefox, Chrome, ... ) and get the file from the link "
https://www.mediafire.com/file/fnnkq89xdjy75m0/DarkOmenMods.zip/file
" and save it in the directory "/home/USERNAME/games/warhammer/sources/"
9) Install the game
"Do it as your login ( USERNAME )"
Code:
cd /home/USERNAME/games/warhammer/iso
WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX="/home/USERNAME/games/warhammer/data/" wine SETUP.EXE
Choose the english language
Choose the "full" installation
Change the path of the game ( best for skipping the Microsft Windows space... ) and install it on "c:/games/darkomen"
Launch the installation
At the end, say "yes" to install directx 5
10) Add new ddraw lib
"Do it as your login ( USERNAME )"
You need to get Aqrit's ddraw.dll and the aqrit.cfg and put them in the directory "PRG_ENG"
Code:
cd /home/USERNAME/games/warhammer/sources/ddwrapper
cp aqrit.cfg ddraw.dll /home/USERNAME/games/warhammer/data/drive_c/games/darkomen/PRG_ENG/
11) Edit aqrit.cfg file
"Do it as your login ( USERNAME )"
Edit aqrit.cfg and change "BltMirror=1"
Use a text editor ( like vim on Linux )
Code:
vim /home/USERNAME/games/warhammer/data/drive_c/games/darkomen/PRG_ENG/aqrit.cfg
With "vim" :
Press "i" key
Go on the good line
Change "0" to "1" on the line BltMirror
Press "Echap" key
Type ":wq!"
12) Change wincfg configuration
"Do it as your login ( USERNAME )"
You then need to open winecfg again:
Code:
WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX="/home/USERNAME/games/warhammer/data/" winecfg
Go to Libraries tab, if "ddraw" is not in the "Existing overrides" then click on "New override for library:", type "ddraw" and click "Add". It will give you a warning about the order but just say yes. Then make sure in the "Existing overrides" that it's "native" first.
13) Add new executable "EngRel.exe"
"Do it as your login ( USERNAME )"
Get the HexEdited "EngRel.exe" file and the "darkpatch.dll" lib from the downloaded archive and put them in PRG_ENG
Code:
cd /home/USERNAME/games/warhammer/sources/DarkOmenMods/PRG_ENG/
mv /home/USERNAME/games/warhammer/data/drive_c/games/darkomen/PRG_ENG/EngRel.exe /home/USERNAME/games/warhammer/data/drive_c/games/darkomen/PRG_ENG/EngRel.exe.orig
cp EngRel.exe darkpatch.dll /home/USERNAME/games/warhammer/data/drive_c/games/darkomen/PRG_ENG/
14) Install Xephyr
"Do it as root"
When you use Linux, each windows is served by a "windows manager"
To play in "16 bits", you need to use xephyr. Without xephyr, you will have some graphics problems.
Code:
apt update
apt install xserver-xephyr
15) Update directplay librairies in wine ( to play multiplayers )
"Do it as your login ( USERNAME )"
Code:
WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX="/home/USERNAME/games/warhammer/data/" winetricks directplay
Say "yes" each time to have file as asked
16) Launch the game on Linux
As I said, on Linux, there is many "windows manager". For this reason, there are some daemons which are using/serving the display.
The position "1" is many time busy or used, so we will use the position/place "2" to skip the error. You can choose "3" if "1" or "2" are already used, etc...
Create a Xephyr windows
Code:
Xephyr :2 -ac -screen 640x480x16 &
Launch the game
Code:
DISPLAY=:2 WINEPREFIX=/home/USERNAME/games/warhammer/data/ wine EngRel.exe
Have fun !
I will update the post to create a desktop icon to launch the game. And maybe to give you some tips on the config.

Thanks olly.
Since 1 month now, I try to play with your mod pack and the best resolution ( I love Warhammer Fantasy ).
I started with the work of aqrit and moktira, but it seems Wine on Linux and Ubuntu 22.04 LTS had progressed on the subject.
Since yesterday, I didn't not understand why I could not have the dgvoodoo watermark with the moktira approch. So I decided to delete all and start from the ISO / CD.
And I did it !
I will publish my results in the night I think.
I have again a problem to play with multiplayers, but I used the EngRel.exe of moktira. I have to test with yours.
The answer in few hours

OK OK. It works on single player ! ( I have to find howto play multiplayers, but one step after the other )
I start from a fresh install ( for the beginners )
In this part, I will only use the mod_pack from Olly ( and the community )
Note:
I don't use "sudo" for many reasons. I prefer directly using root when I need it. So I run the command "su -" to change to root and type many commands.
When you need "Do it as root", if you don't use like me the command "su -", just add "sudo" behind the commands and enter the password if asked.

Thanks Olly
.
For the Multiplayers session, it is not OK unfortunately.
This command should help me to fix it
Code:
WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX="/home/USERNAME/games/warhammer/data/" winetricks directplay
I can create the round/map/session , but when I try to join the game with a other PC on Linux, it say the session was already close and I can't join the session
If someone has a idea
Regards.

Very close indeed. Our mod pack EngRel.exe & darkpatch.dll redirects multiplayer armytmp to c:/system32/temp on windows, if that helps.
Presumably you are joining the multiplayer session via ip address?

Hi Olly,
You are right.
It is complex to debug.
The computer 1 create the game with his static IP address
by default, wine directplay pop-op a windonws and ask for a IP. If you create the game, you must let the texte area blank.
And you wait the other computer to launch the game.
In the other part, you have the computer 2 which join the game.
When the wine directplay pop-op the windows, you enter the IP of the computer 1.
wine directplay see the computer 1 and the login of the computer 1, and when the computer 2 try to rejoin, it fail...
When you say your EngRel.exe and darkpatch.dll redirects multiplayer armytmp to c:/, so you have modified the original workflow of the game ?
What king of tool did you have use to do this ? Maybe it could be possible to revert this part ? I am not a expert in reverse or disassembling :/
I will investigate. For now, I don't known how to trap the error / the fail.
