If you're also looking to try and play WoW on Linux with Wine, perhaps one less item to dual-boot Windows over then try out the installer with Lutris. On the GitHub page, the developer mentioned they created it as a direct result of Twitch "giving the Curse addon client to yet another company" so they wanted to "create something the community can believe in".Ĭheck it out on WoWUp.io. Our livestreamer usually shies away from setting things up and she had no issues using it, which is partly thanks to it having a nice clear interface.īeing able to search, install and update directly within WowUp is pretty slick. Not only is it open source with a Linux version, I've also been shown by our livestreamer just how easy it is to use with WoW and Wine together. Recently, I came across an open source tool called WowUp, which is a "World of Warcraft addon updater" and it has quite an impressive feature list. Additional comment actions Looks like Minion is still being updated for those that want an easy-to-use addon manager for WoW. I don't personally play WoW, however, I am aware of just how popular the addon scene is for this MMO and how WoW continues to have plenty of Linux players. Hopefully addon authors swap over too, but a lot wont because they dont get paid there. While it's true that World of Warcraft doesn't support Linux, it has been playable on Linux for years thanks to the Wine compatibility layer and it appears even sorting addons is now a breeze.
