Anyone Get FHM4 or FHM5 to work with Linux (Wine)? I have tried Wine and PlayonLinux, but have had no luck.

I know this is a bit old, but I am able to get FHM 5 to play on linux using Steam and Proton.

I was eventually able to get FHM4 to work with wine on linux (deepin distro). OOTP20 also worked.

Ha! I was literally about to post this. No need to play around with WINE or PoL. Running Manjaro and it's working so far.

Not the smoothest experience navigating the UI, there's a few hangs here and there, but yeah, it works. What more can you ask for.

I think OOTP has a chance to gain an upper hand and win some EHM fans over by officially supporting Linux in FHM 6. Microsoft keeps botching Windows updates and turning into a "service" is increasingly annoying people, so you might start to see more gamers move over to Linux now that gaming on it is starting to improve.

EDIT: I know the demand isn't there now and the likelihood of any significant migration of Windows users to Linux is very, very, very.... very unlikely.

Just a heads up that OOTP 20 has native Linux support, you shouldn't need WINE to run it.

Yes, thanks, I am aware but I have it installed on 2 computers and the other is windows 10. I don't believe the windows license will work in linux and vice versa

So it seems FHM6 will not have a Linux version?

No, unfortunately not.
