Hi all!

There is my solution for marketplace suppot in ubuntu. It’ll be same for any other linux distributions.

  1. Install and setup Wine.
    Wiki is here: Ubuntu WineHQ Repository - WineHQ Wiki

  2. Download winetricks

  3. Install required tools using winetricks



sudo apt install winbind
winetricks corefonts
sudo apt install cabextract
  1. Download latest official version of Launcher.
  2. Run installation using wine


wine msiexec /i <path-to-launche-installer>.msi
  1. After installation process finished first time run Launcher using wine with argument “SkipBuildPatchPrereq” to disable update process. Next time this argument isn’t necessery anymore.


wine 'C:/Program Files (x86)/Epic Games/Launcher/Portal/Binaries/Win32/EpicGamesLauncher.exe' -SkipBuildPatchPrereq

Launcher is ready now, but it will not find any projects you created. To fix that you should do next steps:

  1. Open “My Documents” folder of wine. Usually placed in “~/.wine/drive_c/users//My documents/”.
  2. Open or create folder “Unreal projects”. You shuold have something like that: “~/.wine/drive_c/users/Мои документы/Unreal Projects”.
  3. Make symbolic link to your project’s folder.


cd "~/.wine/drive_c/users/Мои документы/Unreal Projects"
ln -s <path-to-your-ue4-project> ./<project-name>
  1. Restart Launcher.

Now you can download any assets to your projects.

Hi Erlandys,

I’ve just cloned your repo and tried running the Compiled version you have provided, but it still gives “null” in red right after you provide the 2FA and hit enter.

cheers.

I’m getting the same as above… a “null” after 2FA. It seems to take the authentication, go up to 100% in that bar and then just says “null” in red.

32

To whom it may concern,

I tried different approaches to download marketplace content under Linux. I tired the @Erlandys tool and also other tools forked from that, but I was getting “Error #1010” just after introducing the code from the 2FA application. I solved following the approach proposed by @Neomer. The procedure using wine is straightforward. The only small correction I had to make was to specify the version of the UnrealEngine used for the project, since the EpicGameLauncher (emulated under wine) was not able to detect it.

I am running Fedora 32.

Cheers

Neomer, you’re my true heroe, it works like a charm. It’s not that I didn’t appreciate the java versions;however, to be honest it brings a lot of troubles. The wine version, not Lutris is easy to follow and works.

I’ve tried the java version. Awesome work! But it gets stuck on 2fa, it opens a window with almost no size and i can’t do anything.

I’ve tried the wine version but it fails with this :
