Requirements
- Basic knowledge about the Wine Prefix
- Lutris
- Lutris Wine Runner: lutris-6.1-3
- A prefix with GTA:SA V1.0 installation (Lutris can be used)
- MTA Installer
Installing MTA
- On Lutris, Add a Game:
- Game Info -> Name: Multi Theft Auto
- Game Options -> Wine Prefix: Same as the GTA:SA installation prefix
- Runner Options -> Wine Version: lutris-6.1-3
- Runner Options -> Enable DXVK/VKD3D: Disabled
- On Lutris, click on Multi Theft Auto and on the bottom bar, click on the Wine popup menu and select Run EXE inside Wine prefix
- On the File Manager that appears, find and select the MTA Setup executable that you downloaded
- Run the setup normally, defaults should be working fine
- Before finishing setup, make sure you untick Run MTA
- On Lutris, right click Multi Theft Auto and select Configure
- Game Options -> Executable: Should point to "Multi Theft Auto.exe" inside the Wine Prefix path (eg. "{Wine Prefix path}/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/MTA San Andreas 1.5/Multi Theft Auto.exe")
- On Lutris, click on Multi Theft Auto and on the bottom bar, click on the Wine popup menu and select Winetricks
- Select the default wineprefix -> Install a font -> Check Tahoma and Verdana
- On Lutris, launch Multi Theft Auto
- You should be greeted with an "Error serial", but that's actually a good sign, continue to solve it
- In order to solve the "Error serial", download and run the Linux Native MTA Server
- After about a minute running the server, close it
- On Lutris, launch Multi Theft Auto
- MTA should launch without any issues, as well as successfully connect to servers
Tips
- This setup works with MTA 1.5.8 (tested)
- There are probably some Lutris Scripts available for installing MTA, but doing it manually should work better (untested)
- Ignore any Wine Mono and Wine Gecko installation prompts, as they are not needed for MTA (tested)
- The wine-tkg 6.1 version works and can be used instead of the Lutris one (tested)
- For audio streaming, installing "wmp10" using Winetricks from Lutris might help (untested)
- Make sure you also check Client on Linux Manual for more info
Known Issues
- Using any other Wine version other than 6.1 might result to:
- "SD #16 Protocol Error" when connecting to a server, or
- "No audio card detected" when launching either GTA:SA or MTA
- Using standard Full-screen mode on MTA might cause some occasional artifacts
- Enabling DXVK might not break GTA:SA, but it breaks MTA (thanks Lpsd!)
- Some crashes might occur on some servers for various reasons
