This page outlines how to get League of Legends working on your arch system.
Contents
Setup
Set up a chroot
The way to do this is outlined in Install bundled 32-bit system in Arch64. An even easier method is to install arch32-lightAUR from the AUR [which follows the steps outlined in the wiki article above].
Install your graphics drivers
You will need to install your graphics drivers inside the chroot. You will need hardware acceleration drivers as well.
Install wine in your chroot
Create wine PREFIX
Run:
# schroot -p winecfg
to create a default 32-bit prefix at $HOME/.wine and take the chance to verify that it is set on Windows XP
Install the following in chroot
Set up your base system
Install wine and winetricks in your base system.
Install the following windows components using winetricks from your base system:
# winetricks d3dx9 vcrun2005 vcrun2008 wininet winhttp corefonts
Install the following
- lib32-libldap: This is required for running the installer
Install
Download the LoL installer
You can download the installer from the league of legends website:
Run the Installer
To run the install, run the following command from your base system:
# GC_DONT_GC=1 wine $directory/LeagueofLegends.exe
where $directory is the directory where the installer is located.
Patch the game
Download
Follow the included instructions and apply the texture patch. This will prevent the game from crashing when you open the in-game store.
Running the Game
Create a bash script with the following commands:
#!/bin/sh cd "$HOME/.wine/drive_c/Riot Games/League of Legends/RADS/system/" schroot -p -- wine "rads_user_kernel.exe" run lol_launcher $(ls ../projects/lol_launcher/releases/) LoLLauncher.exe
Run it, and you should be good to go. Enjoy!
