YgoMaster for Linux

• Install wine
• Do the following to fix input on window focus change https://askubuntu.com/questions/299286/how-to-recover-focus-after-losing-it-while-using-wine/1202472#1202472
• Download the latest YgoMaster release from https://github.com/pixeltris/YgoMaster/releases
• Copy the YgoMaster folder (the folder, not the contents of the folder) into the game folder
• Download this zip and extract / merge it with the YgoMaster folder from the previous step
• Run wine MonoRun.exe YgoMasterClient.exe

Folder structure

Your folder structure should look like this:

Master Duel
├── YgoMaster
│   ├── Data/
│   ├── mono/
│   ├── MonoRun.exe
│   ├── YgoMasterClient.exe
│   ├── YgoMaster.exe
│   ├── YgoMasterLoader.dll
├── ...

Make sure you copied mono / MonoRun.exe from the zip into the correct place as noted into the above folder structure.

Missing fonts

You may have missing fonts under wine. If the game crashes when prompted to load files / folders in the custom sub menus (i.e. loading decks from files) try the following:

• Try adding the Tahoma font using winetricks (this worked for me)
  • Run winetricks
  • Select the default wineprefix
  • Install a font
  • Check tahoma and press OK
• Try installing sudo apt-get install ttf-mscorefonts-installer
• Diagnose the font issue yourself
  • Run WINEDEBUG=+font wine MonoRun.exe YgoMasterClient.exe
  • Go to the deck editor, open the sub menu in the top right and click to load a deck from a file
  • The game will crash
  • Check the console output for the last font that tried to load
  • Install the mentioned font with winetricks

Diagnosing issues

Create mono_log.txt in the Master Duel folder and inside the YgoMaster folder. This will log all mono messages in these files which you can look through to diagnose problems with mono.

Where the mono files come from

The files inside mono were copied from the latest mono stable release https://www.mono-project.com/download/stable/#download-win

• %ProgramFiles%/mono/lib/mono/4.5/ folder was stripped down and copied to the output mono/lib. Additionally mscorlib.dll was copied from the 4.5 folder into mono/lib/mono/4.5/mscorlib.dll as that is where mono wants it
• %ProgramFiles%/mono/etc/ was copied as-is to the output mono/etc
• %ProgramFiles%/mono/bin/*.dll was copied as-is to the output mono/bin

Bugs

• ClientSettings.json setting ShowConsole does not work
