RPG Maker MV / MZ for Linux [ cicpoffs mount]

The bash wrapper uses native Linux libraries to run Windows games and serves as an alternative to WINE. It creates a local port of the Linux version from the Windows port and then executes it. Initially, it supported only RPG Maker MV and MZ, but it now also supports RPG Maker XP, VX, VX Ace, MV, MZ, TyranoBuilder, Godot, Construct 2/3, and Nscripter.

Priority is primarily on RPG Maker MV/MZ. (if you have errors with XP, VX, Vx Ace address this link).

Contains the following features (RPG Maker MV / MZ):

• Sharp increase in fps (from 2 to 4 times more compared to Wine, can be viewed by pressing the F2 key)
• Updating Pixi 5 libraries for RPG Maker MV games (that's supposed to increase performance)
• Downloading and selecting any version of NWJS (using the command line and GUI).
• Starting a game with the Japanese locale option.
• Launching a game using a command line.
• Showing the NWJS, Nodejs, Chromium versions of your game.
• Installing the Text hooker plug-in that copies the game's dialogs automatically to your clipboard.
• Can be used as compatibility tool in steam for Windows games.
• The Native support of 4 architectures: x86-64, i386, armhf, arm64
