Hi, so there is a fan game I want to play. It's not a very intensive game, so I suspect a chromebook should be able to run it.
I've installed crossover, and downloaded the game from https://github.com/SHNecro/ShanghaiJAR/releases
The game is a .exe file surrounded by a bunch of resources (music, sprites, maps, etc.)
I was able to get the exe file for the Control Configuration to open, but I can't seem to get the game running.
The readme file says I may need:
- DirectX End-User Runtime
- Microsoft .NET Framework 4
- Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5
- SlimDX January 2012 End User Runtime
Now, I've installed the first three, although I'm not certain I properly installed them. I tried installing the fourth, but I don't believe it would install when I tried.
Everytime I try to run the game I get an error code.
Should this work? Am I wasting my time? Or am I doing something wrong?
