So, I want to play Fortnite on Linux.
Problem: Does not work.
I thought about installing it on my parents' PC, but my parents do not want me to install it there. I might be able to play it over a stick on her PC.
Any ideas? Or maybe man can install it on Linux?
Should run with Wine. Just give it a try.
What is Wine? Sounds stupid, but I'm a Linux beginner
Wine is a software that replicates the Windoze API so that native Windows programs can be run on Linux.
Wine is a compatibility layer that allows you to run some Windows programs under GNU / Linux systems.
Look at the Internet just a guide to Wine. It may be helpful to additionally install the program "PlayOnLinux". This simplifies the use of Wine.
Do you need admin rights for this?
Do you mean root rights? Well, to install Wine you definitely need root privileges just like any other program. You could also compile it manually by using Make. But no idea if you are familiar with the procedure.
The use of Wine does not require root privileges.
Fortnite is currently not running because of the anti cheat
If it's not running, you can use a virtual machine instead. In seamless mode, this integrates pretty well into the system.
Moment, Fortnite is not running or not on Linux?
How do you do that?
Not on Linux
But how did you get it to work?
Under Linux just not at all because of the anti cheat and since Fortnite does not have a Linux port you have to use Wine and under wine that just STILL does not work
For example, install VirtualBox and create a VM using a Windows installation medium. In this you can, as usual Windows, install Fortnite.
Linux is the absolute cheese to play with. Fortnite does not run on Linux.
Install Windows 10 and it's good. You can use Linux anyway.
Windows 10 costs but…
5-10 euro.
Real cost
Can you buy legally. I probably already made 50x. And tens of thousands of other users too.
I'm poor…
No, I'm not into it!
Well then. Have fun with Linux.
Yeah, that's right. But 💩 for games.
How about emulators?
VM?
And how do I install VirtualBox without root?
That will be more or less impossible.
Onerous.
Do you think it works that I install Fortnite on a stick and start it on Windows?
No idea. I do not know about Windows.
OK thanks!
That works pretty well if you mean anroid emulators.
Nintendo emulators run better on Win10.
Moment Android Emulator to play Fortnite? Huh?
I thought of a Windows emulator.
Oh, I thought it's about emulators in general.
So?
Fortnite is currently not available for Linux.
Wine is a kind of emulation layer that allows running Windows applications under Linux. Wine is in my opinion only badly usable. However, there are currently solutions like Proton in Steam or Lutris that provide preconfigured versions of Wine for games. Fortnite does not work with this solution. The problem is probably not the game itself but the anticheating software that is integrated in Fortnite.
Linux in itself is quite suitable for gambling as long as you are satisfied with the native games as well as with the titles running under steam with Proton or Lutris on Wine.
Well, you can crack Windows so synonymous or no idea but certainly in the internet links hehe
