Omorpg's on Linux/Mac


Recommended Posts

So, this isn't directly related to omorashi as a topic. However, roughly 90 percent of omorashi games on the site are ran in a program called "RPG maker." Because of this, I felt that it was close enough to being on-topic. If however, this topic does get moved, I will respect the moderator's decision.

So you want to play fetish games on your Linux/Mac rig and just found out that nearly every game on this website is Windows-exclusive. However, there are some work-arounds.

Disclaimer: I haven't been able to get programs like ITH or Chilltrans to work on WINE. So unfortunately, you will have to wait for this application to get updated to the latest edition of Firefox. Until then, you are shit out of luck for untranslated omorpg games. http://www.adriancourreges.com/projects/livino-reader/

Note: Most visual novel games on omorashi.org can be ran without fancy setup. For example, wolfRPG games such as Nyo Time can be ran with vanilla WINE.

Shoutout: Thanks to the wonderful WINE community for helping me with the WINEGStreamer issues. https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42456

Step 1: Install WINE. There are already plenty of guides on this, including the official WINE website. So I won't bother rehashing that information as it should be fairly straight forward. https://www.winehq.org/download

Step 2: Disable WINEGStreamer. This DLL will cause crashes and issues on RPG Maker VX/ACE games. Including Wetter's Story. See the two attached images down below. You can access winecfg by simply typing "winecfg" in the terminal. How you access winecfg on mac, I unfortunately am not sure.

Step 3: If the game you are trying to run is MV then read this. Otherwise skip this step. MV games will normally black screen when you attempt to start them. This issue can easily be fixed by enabling a virtual desktop through the winecfg.

UPDATE: It turns out that my original theory was incorrect. As it turns out you should make sure that your windows version is set to the default "XP" and not "windows 7." Sorry for the mistake on my part.

Step 4: Linux comes with a built in locale emulator. You will have to run your games through the terminal using the following command "LANG=ja_JP wine /path/to/game" I don't know how you change locale on mac. So if someone who owns a mac could explain that to me, I would update this guide.

Step 4.5: This still doesn't fix my issues. Some games have to be extracted in a Japanese locale. Meaning that you will have to do some extra setup. Extracting Japanese Games

Step 5: Install the RTP. Make sure you know which RTP to download. You simply run the exe file through WINE without any fancy setup and it will do the rest. http://www.rpgmakerweb.com/download/additional/run-time-packages

Step 6: Fap hard and say goodbye to windows! :D
