Affinity Suite V2 on Linux [ Wine ]

Daegalus · August 2

On another note, I have gotten Fedora working along with Arch. New artifacts are available here:

Arch: https://github.com/daegalus/wine-tkg-affinity/actions/runs/10219597913

Fedora: https://github.com/daegalus/wine-tkg-affinity/actions/runs/10218978389

To my knowledge, these builds aren't actually specifically tied to a distro. But this is how TKG builds them, so there we go.

Ubuntu/Debian is a nightmare for Wine building, so still trying to get that builder working.

These builds only have the patches from @__avg__ and any from TKG that are provided by default. I will look into adding some of the changes from Elemental's patches.

Hey, that’s great! I’d love to try installing this on my Fedora system, but I don’t see any installation instructions. Is there a guide on how to install it, or can you briefly explain it to me here?

Just extract it to a folder somewhere, then use the wine bin directly: `~/some-folder/wine-tkg-affinity/bin/wine blah blah` . If you need to use it with winetricks, just do `WINE="~/path to the wine folder" winetricks` and so on. There is no installer or instructions yet.

Actually, if you use `rum` from the guide, you can just extract the zip into

/opt/wines/wine-tkg-affinity

and then you can use rum to deal with it, just like in the guide. the binary would be under

/opt/wines/wine-tkg-affinity/bin/win

if extracted right.

I could probably make one, I use bottles a lot, the issue is the metadata files and if we are legally allowed to distribute those. That would defeat the purpose of an intaller if we need those files.

I did wonder that. From what I read, the Windows licence doesn’t let you do anything other than run Windows on one machine. I wonder if there’s a way an installer can do everything except copy the metadata files, so that’s the only big manual step a user would have to do?

Alternatively, is it feasible to develop the Metadata files that Affinity needs and upstream them into Wine? (Might be a stupid question - I’m not sure what the files do, what the limits of the Wine project are, and how much work that would be. I’m assuming it’s a lot of work and wouldn’t expect someone to do it for free)

Got my hands on an AMD GPU for a few hours today & got OpenCL to at least initialise to the GPU. You need the ROCm drivers (and you also need them to not segfault lmao), since Affinity V2 requires the "cl_amd_device_attribute_query" extension when it detects an AMD GPU, and that's only present on the ROCm drivers. I still haven't got it to fully work in my tests since it hangs after trying to flush the some buffer, but that may simply be because I'm using an ancient RX480 and the ROCm drivers haven't officially supported that for a good while. If it hangs for you too, then you can turn off OpenCL with a dll override.

For future reference, you can run something like this to see what opencl extensions it's looking for

strings "$WINEPREFIX/drive_c/Program Files/Affinity/[app]/libraster.dll" | grep cl_

Anyway, give it a try with the latest opencl patch, and see if it works for ya.

I found I was using a rocm driver from back in January. After installing opencl-amd from aur, the error from the driver went away.

Now I get a lot more opencl logs, but I'm guessing the opencl implementation in wine isn't good enough yet for amd here. I am seeing that clSetEventCallback issue as well.

Well I got opencl checked on amd. Although it doesn't work if dxvk is installed into the wineprefix.

New branch:

affinity-photo3-wine9.13-part3

I immediately call the clSetEventCallback. Which means it likely isn't working as expected. Because it should be asynchronous, after the job is done. But :shrug:.

I tried writing a wrapper function. But it just crashed. I'm not sure how easy it is to call PE functions from wine server process.

The issue here seems to stem from calling Wine code from ~~within Unix space~~ a non-Wine thread. You can create a function that just does a printf, pass that in as the callback and it will work, but the second you call any Wine code it'll crash lmao. I'm not really experienced enough to solve this problem at the mo, but I'll have a read around! We almost need another callback function for the callback function lmao...

Oh man, working openCL? awesome!

Tried building the affinity-photo3-wine9.13-part3 branch but ran into redefine issues in dxcore header related stuff, but with @Daegalus 's build i got openCL enabled on a nvidia card.

Things noted:
- scaling canvas is still bad, i'm suspecting wine's implementation for filtering/antialiasing is just bad. (and naturally can't check dxvk under which fonts render WAY better but canvas is invisible or the thing just straight up crashes)

- brush still flashes if you zoom close enough, and contents under brush don't update properly, but generates less garbage on screen than before (somehow).

- bigger the window is, slower the app seems to be as if drawing the contents is somehow slower almost as if openCL just claims to be enabled but all operations are still being done on CPU, but might also just be a xorg+nvidia thing lol

Even with the minor faults its still very much usable 👌

Daegalus · August 5

Just a reminder my build has only some of the TKG patches (child window fixes and some game related stuff) and then the patches from __avg__.

It's missing some of the patches from ElementalWarrior. Like transparent windows, and some other child window fixes. Along with other stuff I'm not sure.

I am only building the stuff, I am not as familiar with Wine's codebase.

I'm getting an error when trying to install dotnet48 with winetricks:

I've googled the error, but can't see a way around it.

I can install Affinity Photo, but unsurprisingly when running it complains about the lack of dotnet48:

And prior to that I deleted the install directories and re-copied everything over fresh (at least what I hope is fresh, I didn't re-compile the wine):

sudo rm -rf /opt/wines/ElementalWarrior-9.13
rm -rf /home/john/.wineAffinity2
sudo cp --recursive "/home/john/ElementalWarrior-wine9.13/wine-install" "/opt/wines/ElementalWarrior-9.13"
sudo ln -s /opt/wines/ElementalWarrior-9.13/bin/wine /opt/wines/ElementalWarrior-9.13/bin/wine64

Any ideas where I can go from here? Re-compile the wine maybe?

It sure is a learning curve, but I do feel that I'm learning more about wine through this process, which should be a help in the future.

Although, shouldn't I be seeing framework v4.8 not v4.0 there?

Add/remove programs shows 4.8 as being installed:

I did find this:

https://github.com/Winetricks/winetricks/issues/971

which sounds exactly like my issue, but says it should be fixed since 7.12 and as this is 9.13 I shouldn't in theory be seeing that issue so I'm not quite sure what is going on.

Anyone have a clue what's going on here?

Hi all new to this and I managed to get it all installed and I can open Designer. However, I have been unable to get my canvas to show (Its always black)

I have;

1. Set the renderer=vulkan

2. attempted to set it to the virtual desktop in the winecfg

I followed https://codeberg.org/Wanesty/affinity-wine-docs, but checked out the https://gitlab.winehq.org/ElementalWarrior/wine/-/tree/affinity-photo3-wine9.13-part3?ref_type=heads branch.

Spent the last about 6 hours on it and am finally at the point of requesting help (removed and reinstalled once or twice @.@)

Was trying to figure out how to implement the version from this post but failed to do so.

On another note, I have gotten Fedora working along with Arch. New artifacts are available here:

Arch: https://github.com/daegalus/wine-tkg-affinity/actions/runs/10219597913

Fedora: https://github.com/daegalus/wine-tkg-affinity/actions/runs/10218978389

To my knowledge, these builds aren't actually specifically tied to a distro. But this is how TKG builds them, so there we go.

Ubuntu/Debian is a nightmare for Wine building, so still trying to get that builder working.

These builds only have the patches from @__avg__ and any from TKG that are provided by default. I will look into adding some of the changes from Elemental's patches.

No idea what to even include for assistance in getting to the root cause since I didn't really see any other post with this specific issue.

ElementalWarrior's wine fork is the way to go at the moment, I haven't updated my patches with his AMD GPU fixes yet since I'm still trying to work out if there's a way to get proper callback support. If that still freezes up, then stick with ElementalWarrior's fork, but disable OpenCL with 'WINEDLLOVERRIDES=opencl='. You will probs wouldn't notice much of a difference in Designer anyway since it's mostly vector based.

Sadly running the below results in the same I have a black canvas in witch nothing renders. When you mentioned the fork above were you referring to the master branch? (I had checked out 3.19-part3

rum ElementalWarrior-9.13 $HOME/.wineAffinity env WINEDLLOVERRIDES="opencl=" wine "$HOME/.wineAffinity/drive_c/Program Files/Affinity/Designer 2/Designer.exe"

ok i finally updated the guide with ElementalWarrior's updated fork and it launched affinity publisher 2.2.0 pretty much flawlessly

i have ROCm HIP drivers (hip-runtime-amd on archlinux) and i know they are working on blender, but i do not have my gpu available in affinity's OpenCL render selection

i still think about moving the guide to a documentation style website (think gitbook) but by the time it took me to update the guide, you can guess the website is not gonna be here anytime soon ahah

I think you'll want the "rocm-opencl-runtime" from the Arch Extra repo. "rocm-opencl" on Fedora.

i downloaded extra/rocm-opencl-runtime 6.0.2-1 and ran affinity but the checkbox was still telling me that my gpu is not compatible

i tried rebuilding wine and got the same issue, so.. shrug

Find a package appropriately named, but version 6.2.0 instead

i think it would be the aur/opencl-amd 1:6.2.0-1 package but i'd need to build it(rocm takes ages and a lot of ram to build) AND i don't think putting an AUR package in the guide is a good idea :/

I have finally got affinity photo launching using ElementalWarrior's affinity-photo3-wine9.13-part3 branch and following Wanesty's guide for 8.14 but replacing everything with 9.13:


git clone https://gitlab.winehq.org/ElementalWarrior/wine.git ElementalWarrior-wine

cd ElementalWarrior-wine

git switch affinity-photo3-wine9.13-part3

mkdir winewow64-build/ wine-install/

cd winewow64-build/

../configure --prefix="/home/john/ElementalWarrior-wine/wine-install" --enable-archs=i386,x86_64

make --jobs 4

make install

sudo rm -rf /opt/wines/ElementalWarrior-9.13
rm -rf /home/john/.wineAffinity2
sudo cp --recursive "/home/john/ElementalWarrior-wine/wine-install" "/opt/wines/ElementalWarrior-9.13"
sudo ln -s /opt/wines/ElementalWarrior-9.13/bin/wine /opt/wines/ElementalWarrior-9.13/bin/wine64

rum ElementalWarrior-9.13 /home/john/.wineAffinity2 wineboot --init

rum ElementalWarrior-9.13 /home/john/.wineAffinity2 winetricks -q -f dotnet48 corefonts

rum ElementalWarrior-9.13 /home/john/.wineAffinity2 wine winecfg -v win11

cp --recursive /home/john/WineShiz/WinMetadata "/home/john/.wineAffinity2/drive_c/windows/system32/WinMetadata"

rum ElementalWarrior-9.13 /home/john/.wineAffinity2 wine /home/john/Downloads/affinity-photo-msi-2.5.3.exe

rum ElementalWarrior-9.13 /home/john/.wineAffinity2 wine "/home/john/.wineAffinity2/drive_c/Program Files/Affinity/Photo 2/Photo.exe"

However I have an issue where it hangs on export. The exported file does get created.

This is the command output:

Saving a document I'm working on does work fine.

I've learnt an awful lot about wine/winetricks through trying to get this to work!

ZorinOS 17.1 (ubuntu 22.04)

Any ideas?
