How to install and run SWTOR on a Linux machine through wine

Welcome to this guide on how to install and run Star Wars: The Old Republic on a Linux distribution. This guide is written for Ubuntu, but it should be easy enough to adapt the instructions for your distribution if you know the proper commands.

Installation

The istallation of SWTOR on a Linux system is a bit more complicated than just opening an executable installer, but not by too much. Just follow these steps and you should be up and running in no-time!

Before you start

Before you get started on installing SWTOR, please note the following:

SWTOR runs very badly on an nVidia GPU when using the standard drivers. To install the drivers, simply install them in the Ubuntu driver settings. There are plently of guides online explaining in more detail.
Wine bottles cannot be installed on a Fuse file-system, and it is not possible to use the copy of SWTOR located on a Windows-partition if you are using a dual-boot.
It is not required to download the whole SWTOR game data again. If you already have a copy (even if on a Fuse file-system), check the Tips.
Official game discs will not work for installation anymore.

Installing Wine

First you need to install , a compatibility layer between Windows applications and Linux. The default version of is not quite suitable if you want a high level of performance though. For that, is required. contains more features than the stable release of , but it might not work with all programs. If you are already using other Wine Bottles¹.

For Ubuntu, the installation of is given below. For other distributions, please consult the official instructions.

wget -nc https://repos.wine-staging.com/wine/Release.key sudo apt-key add Release.key sudo apt-add-repository 'https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/' sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install --install-recommends wine-staging -y

Setting up a Bottle

It is possible to use the default Wine installation directory () to install SWTOR, but personally I prefer to put it in a different directory, because it is such a huge installation. First, choose a directory that suits your needs. Consider if you want to put the game on your main drive, or on a separate drive. As said [before](#before you start), Fuse file-systems will not work!

For this guide, I will use the location . Remember to replace that path with the location of your choosing if you want to use a different directory.

First, create the directory, and then run to set it up as Bottle.

mkdir ~/Bottles/SWTOR # Replace 'user' with your username. Note the WINEARCH is 32-bit, as SWTOR is fully 32-bit. WINEPREFIX=/home/user/Bottles/SWTOR WINEARCH=win32 winecfg

While the Wine Configuration Utility is still open, got to the tab Staging and make sure to select . This will improve the multi-threading of the Windows-API-translation and can improve performance significantly. In the Applications tab, make sure that the Windows version is set to Windows 7.

SWTOR setup

Now that you have correctly setup your Bottle, you are ready to install SWTOR into it. First, download the official game installer from here. If you changed your downloads-folder, then make sure to change the path to the installer file appropriately in the commands below. Now run the setup file and install SWTOR with these commands:

# Make sure to change WINEPREFIX if you use a different folder WINEPREFIX=/home/user/Bottles/SWTOR WINEARCH=win32 wine ~/Downloads/SWTOR_setup.exe

Now follow the installer instructions. Do not change the default installation directory to another folder. Make sure to immediately start SWTOR after the installation is complete by not unchecking the checkbox. Upon first run, SWTOR will create an important file named in its installation directory. Do not log in and close the launcher after is done starting.

Removing BitRaider

Use a text editor to open the following file: . Now change the following values, and pay attention to the quotes:

, "PatchingMode": "{\"swtor\": \"SSN\"}" , "bitraider_download_complete": {} , "log_levels": "INFO,SSNFO,ERROR" , "bitraider_disable": true

Running SWTOR

Starting SWTOR from your Bottle is a bit more complicated than it may seem. Wine will probably create a program entry during the installation, but if you use this, your performance might be lower than if you use the method described here.

Script

By using a special script, is is possible to start SWTOR with options that lower the performance impact of using Wine to run SWTOR. Put the script below in a folder that you find convenient. I have put it in , so I have a central place to start Wine programs from. Open your favourite text editor () and save the script as .

export VIDEO_MEMORY_SIZE=4096 # Make sure to change this to the amount of MiB of video memory your GPU hasexport WINEARCH=win32 export WINEPREFIX="/home/user/Bottles/SWTOR"# Again, change the path if you use a different locationexport WINEDEBUG="-all"# Disables all Wine Debugging features# Remember to change this path wine $WINEPREFIX'/drive_c/Program Files/Electronic Arts/BioWare/Star Wars - The Old Republic/launcher.exe'

Then make the script executable by using:

Now you can use to open SWTOR. Or, if you would rather not change directory each time before starting use:

Desktop Entry

Now that you have a special script to start SWTOR, it would be nice if you could start it from the normal Ubuntu menu by typing , right? Adding this functionality is really easy. Note that this section is meant to be used on distributions with the GNOME desktop environment (Ubuntu 17.10 and later).

Create a new file in your favourite text editor: , and add the following contents:

After closing and saving, when you search for , an entry without an icon should come up. This is the entry that will run the special start-up script.

Tips

Remove BitRaider as described. Seriously, spare yourself loads of wasted time and system resources.
If you would like to record the SWTOR sound separately, it is possible to redirect the sound to a sound sink under Ubuntu (or another distro using ). First, create a virtual audio cable using this command:
pacmd load-module module-null-sink sink_name=Virtual_Cable sink_properties=device.description=Virtual_Cable
This will create a new audio output device named that can be selected in the Audio tab of . Then you can select the automatically created monitor of this device as audio source in the recording software of your choosing. If you do not hear anything anymore after running this command, simply go into the Ubuntu sound settings and select your speakers as default output again. To make the setup permament use:
echo"load-module module-null-sink sink_name=Virtual_Cable sink_properties=device.description=Virtual_Cable">> /etc/pulse/default.pa
If you would also like to hear the sound of the game through the speakers (which I can imagine you do), then you also need to add a loopback of the monitor to your default audio device (speakers):
pacmd load-module module-loopback source="Virtual_Cable.monitor"
Again, to make it permanent:
echo"load-module module-loopback source='Virtual_Cable.monitor'">> /etc/pulse/default.pa

Definitions

A Wine Bottle is a folder that contains a separate Wine-configuration for (usually) a single program.
