<pre wrap="">There's no illegal thing at all... if you paid the game, you can do whatever you
want with it... including extracting the files from YOUR cds.. the only thing
you can't do, is to copy and/or re-distribute..
since i'm not providing any pk3 from MOHAA, this is totally legal.. (well, i
guess it is :S)

<pre wrap="">Hello,
is there any1 there who has discovered how to install mohaa in linux
without using windows ?
I've done it today (was my first time installing mohaa actually)
(using /home/mohaa and linux-distro based on RPM in this mini-howto)
How i've done it:
- Create the install dir
mkdir /home/mohaa/install
cd /home/mohaa/install
- Copy both cd's contents to that directory
cp -R /mnt/cdrom/* /home/mohaa/install/
- Download and install unshield, a tool to extract files from
InstallShield .cab's (check

wget

<blockquote type="cite">
<pre wrap="">rpm -ihv unshield-0.4-1.i386.rpm
- Extract all files to /home/mohaa
unshield -d /home/mohaa x data1.hdr
- Copy Pak2.pk3 and some other files to their dir
cp main/Pak2.pk3 /home/mohaa/Data_Files_Minimal/
cp *gamex* /home/mohaa/Data_Files_Minimal/
cp ffx86.dll /home/mohaa/Data_Files_Minimal/
cp config.csv /home/mohaa/Data_Files_Minimal/
- now, you have 2 options... you can use my script that create and
copy all files to the right folder or you can do it yourself... :)
cd /home/mohaa
wget <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.lan-arena.org/grexil/mohaainstall">http://www.lan-arena.org/grexil/mohaainstall</a>
sh mohaainstall
- after this, you can just read the rest of ryan's how-to :)
NOTES:
PROBLEM - I had MD5 problems when extracting the pak1 and pak3 from
the cab... i don't know if my CDs where damaged... i don't think so...
SOLUTION - To resolve that problem, i just edited unshield's source
and removed the "problem" (check lib/file.c line 689)
wget <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.lan-arena.org/grexil/unshield-0.4-LA.tar.gz">http://www.lan-arena.org/grexil/unshield-0.4-LA.tar.gz</a>
tar jxf unshield-0.4-LA.tar.gz
cd unshield-0.4-LA
./configure
make
make install (you need root to do this)
