This will be a guide for those not using the Docker container<\/a> provided by DomiStyle.<\/p>\n

In the guide we will be using Debian 9 Stretch and the latest wine-staging release (3.7 at the time of writing).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Starting with installing wine-staging, let’s follow the instructions that wine-staging.com<\/a> provides:<\/p>\n

Wine consists of a 32-bit and optional 64-bit part. In order to install i386 packages on a 64-bit system, you have to run the following command as a first step:<\/p>\n

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386<\/pre>\n
 <\/p>\n
Afterwards import the key for our repository:<\/p>\n
wget -nc https:\/\/repos.wine-staging.com\/wine\/Release.key sudo apt-key add Release.key<\/pre>\n
 <\/p>\n
And add our repository at the end of your file: \/etc\/apt\/sources.list<\/span>
\nFor Debian Stretch:<\/p>\n
deb https:\/\/dl.winehq.org\/wine-builds\/debian\/ stretch main<\/pre>\n
 <\/p>\n
Update and install dependencies:<\/p>\n
sudo apt-get update\r\nsudo apt-get install winehq-staging cabextract xvfb<\/pre>\n
 <\/p>\n
Download winetricks and use it to install winhttp:<\/p>\n
wget https:\/\/raw.githubusercontent.com\/Winetricks\/winetricks\/master\/src\/winetricks\r\nchmod +x winetricks\r\n<\/pre>\n
 <\/p>\n
Now we can begin to prepare the wine prefix that we will use for the dedicated server. We set the prefix path, use a 64 bit prefix, use wineboot to generate the bare prefix, winetricks to install winhttp, and use Xvfb start a fake X display so that we can install our C++ 2012 dependency headless. We’ll need the fake X display to run the server too.<\/p>\n
export WINEPREFIX=\/home\/user\/Halo_Online1\/prefix\r\nexport WINEARCH=win64\r\nwineboot\r\n~\/winetricks winhttp vcrun2012\r\n<\/pre>\n
 <\/p>\n
After that is complete we need to make an adjustment to our DLL overrides. Open prefix\/user.reg<\/span> with your text editor and add the following line under [Software\\\\Wine\\\\DllOverrides]<\/span><\/p>\n
\"rasapi32\"=\"native\"<\/pre>\n
 <\/p>\n
We can now make a simple launch script for the server.<\/p>\n
#!\/bin\/bash\r\n\r\nXvfb :1 -screen 0 320x240x24 &\r\nexport DISPLAY=:1\r\nexport WINEPREFIX=\/home\/user\/Halo_Online1\/prefix\r\nwineconsole \/home\/user\/Halo_Online1\/eldorado.exe -launcher -dedicated -minimize<\/pre>\n
 <\/p>\n
I run several servers so what I did was make another script to handle launching the different server instances and then call it with cron at reboot time.<\/p>\n
#!\/bin\/bash\r\n\r\nscreen -dmS Halo_Online1 \/home\/user\/Halo_Online1\/dedicated_server.sh\r\nsleep 2\r\nscreen -dmS Halo_Online2 \/home\/user\/Halo_Online2\/dedicated_server.sh\r\nsleep 2\r\nscreen -dmS Halo_Online3 \/home\/user\/Halo_Online3\/dedicated_server.sh\r\nsleep 2\r\nscreen -dmS Halo_Online4 \/home\/user\/Halo_Online4\/dedicated_server.sh<\/pre>\n
 <\/p>\n
Edit your crontab with crontab -e<\/span> and add:<\/p>\n
@reboot \/home\/user\/Halo_Online_Shared\/start_servers.sh >\/dev\/null 2>&1<\/pre>\n
