Can I try to run it under wine?

[Klyngen]

Hi! I recently purchased Affinity Designer. And I am happy with the product. I have Windows on my laptop, but my heart belongs to linux. I tried running the demo under wine. Newer versions run the installer perfectly, but I have some small issues to solve before the application runs. 

My question is: "do I break the lisence agreement by doing so?". 

 

I believe I am the first to run the installer successfully, but I do have some issues regarding some dll-files. After som research these issues will be solved in newer versions of wine.

Hi Klyngen

 

You can give it try but it's not something we would support if you run into issues installing or using the app in general. Have fun and good luck!

The more - if not the most - important question is: How do you got the Installer/Designer run on Wine?

I tried it from time to time with no success at all so I and many others would be glad if you could write down how you made it working.
Waiting for a tutorial...
