Hero Designer on Linux

Does HD6 work in Linux? If so, how would I install it? 

I understand that distros are just flavors of Linx. Has anyone installed it in MX Linux? If so, what were your results?

First, check you've got Java installed...at least Java 8.  It should be part of the Linux install in most cases.  The OpenJDK version or the Oracle version should be fine.

 

Then download and unzip HD.  The HD6.jar file now has to be made executable.  On my Mint install, there's a Properties item on the popup menu...I expect it's there on MX, too.  Just click on the Properties.

 

Now you should be able to right-click on the HD6.jar file, and Open with Other Application.  

 

That was it...just downloaded and did it on my Mint box.  

 

You can also set up a script file, something like this...

java -Xmx256m -cp .\HD6.jar com.hero.HeroDesigner 

 

Should do it.
