This page or section has not been updated in a long time, no longer applies, refers to features that have been replaced/removed, and/or may not be reliable.

This page is only kept for historical reasons, or in case someone wants to try updating it.

NOTE: This may not work and may create strange things with the translated strings. XBMC doesn't support this. Tested on Ubuntu 8.04.1 with Wine 1.1.2

First get winetricks: 

wget http://www.kegel.com/wine/winetricks

Run winetricks and install the following for Microsoft .NET 1.1 SP1 to work correctly:

  • corefonts
  • gdiplus
  • vcrun2005
  • vcrun2005sp1
  • dotnet11

By running: 

sh winetricks corefonts gdiplus vcrun2005 vcrun2005sp1 dotnet11

NOTE: You might have to run each item by itself, using: 

sh winetricks corefonts
sh winetricks gdiplus
sh winetricks vcrun2005
sh winetricks vcrun2005sp1
sh winetricks dotnet11

Then get the XBMC Translator with: 

wget http://heanet.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/xbmc/TranslatorFilesOnly.zip

Unzip the Translator: 

unzip TranslatorFilesOnly.zip

And finally run: 

wine Translator.exe

Hopefully this will work, a tip are if winetricks fails, try and remove ~/.wine directory and reinstall wine.
