Hello fellow Linux gamers!

Here youʼll find scripts building packages for Debian, Arch Linux, Gentoo and any derivative (Ubuntu, Manjaro, Linux Mint, etc.) from your installers for The Elder Scrolls games.
These packages can be installed easily with you favourite packages manager.

Download links and usage instructions can be found on the following pages:
The Elder Scrolls: Arena
The Elder Scrolls Ⅱ: Daggerfall
The Elder Scrolls Ⅲ: Morrowind

We hope youʼll enjoy the ease-of-use provided by these scripts as much as we enjoy writing and tweaking them ;)

Here you go for more supported games!

⚠ Following instructions are no longer useful, current ./play.it script has support for innoextract 1.8

-----

The latest GOG installer for Daggerfall is not officially supported by ./play.it yet, but it already works on our development version.
The process is a bit trickier than with our usual scripts, as we don't have support for InnoSetup 5.6.2 (the packaging format currently used for Daggerfall GOG latest installer).

Here is a small guide to get it working.

1. Install innoextract 1.8 development version

Install innoextract build dependencies, then:
git clone https://github.com/dscharrer/innoextract.git ~/innoextract.git
mkdir ~/innoextract.git/build
cd ~/innoextract.git/build
cmake ..
make
mkdir ~/bin
cp innoextract ~/bin/
cd
rm --force --recursive ~/innoextract.git
 
2. Install the patched ./play.it library allowing to use the development version of innoextract + the development version of the ./play.it script for Daggerfall
 
git clone https://framagit.org/vv221/play.it.git ~/play.it.git
cd ~/play.it.git
git checkout dev-2.x/games/update/the-elder-scrolls-2-daggerfall/new-archive
./play.it-2/patches/skip-innoextract-version-check.sh
make
make install
cd
rm --force --recursive ~/play.it.git
 
3. Run the ./play.it script

Open a terminal in the directory including the Daggerfall installer, then:
PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH"
play.it "./setup_the_elder_scrolls_ii_daggerfall_1.07_(28043).exe"
 
4. Follow the instructions given by the script to install the game

5. Enjoy ;)
