			'''Update (July 2011):''' Note that Wine has improved hugely in the 6 years since this was written. You should have no real trouble running TTDPatch on Wine these days, and Wine is conveniently included in most distributions too. There should be no reason to try grappling with old versions of WineX/Cedega (which are no longer maintained or supported).

New page

The most reliable ways of running TTD on Linux are
* The Windows version of TTD+TTDPatch using [http://www.winehq.com/|Wine]
* The DOS or Windows versions of TTD (with or without the patch) on [http://www.vmware.com/|VMWare Workstation 5.0]

If you have a method, or suggestion for a method, create it on a new page here on the wiki, and put a link to it down below in the relevant section (e.g. a method using WineX goes under WineX).

'''NOTE''': A method is classified as "'''Has Worked'''" if you know it works.  It counts as "'''Working'''" once lots of other people have got it working.

-=Wine=-

'''Working''', requires 2.0.1 '''alpha 16''' or later

Wine versions up to 20041201 or after 20050531 (latest CVS snapshot) work. 0.9.2 may cause some issues with sound.

For details on getting it working, see [[TTDWineDave]]

-=WineX/Cegeda=-

'''Has worked''', but needs testing with recent alphas.  Volunteers?

Methods under consideration:
* Using a binary package, for those willing to pay: [[TTDWinexHan]]
* Using CVS, for cheapskates like the author of this method: [[TTDWinexChris]] and [[TTDWineXOskar]]

Phil has some screenshots of successfully running TTDPatch Alpha 25 under WineX: [[TTDWinexPhil]]

-=VMWare=-

'''Working''', in [http://www.vmware.com/|VMWare Workstation 5.0]

Both the DOS and Windows versions work well. For the Windows version, disable the VMWare Tools and install a native mouse driver so that TTD can move the mouse cursor about. Otherwise right-click scrolling will be extremely sensitive.

-=dosemu=-

'''Has Worked''', with dosemu 1.2.1; tested with TTDPatch 2.0.1 alpha 51.

The patch is not needed, the game works fine without it too

If you do use the patch,
* Make sure to give dosemu lots of memory if you want to use the a fair number of new graphics sets  (the default 16 MB aren't enough).
* Deactivate the CPU saver feature: either set `-+miscmods.notimegiveaway on+-' or run the game with `-+ttdpatch --miscmods.notimegiveaway on+-'

-=dosbox=-

'''Has Worked''', using the dos version of ttd+patch

-=Bochs=-

Untested.

-=ttdload=-

This is a port of [[TTDPatch]] and the latest information suggests that it is not up-to-date (based on one of the pre-2.0 betas)

(Any word from the PatchTeam on whether this will be maintained along with DOS and Windows if it proves successful? - C.)
