Is this the right place to share success reports?
I got the latest rhino_en-us_7.32.23221.10241.exe running. Still trying 8 WIP.
Couldn’t lock license to the host (aka standalone), only floating/cloud worked. But after installation it is possible to run it offline (at least it hasn’t complained yet).
When installing Rhino 8 third parties it tried to connect to were google, baidu and gravatar. If you block them (opensnitch) licensing failed.

Pacman/AUR packages. Probably not everything from this list is needed.

Under Wayland (KDE) and with an optimus laptop on nvidia binary driver (not open source) worked as well. Nvidia render offload causes quite a few glitches though (but no crashes yet):
env __NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 __VK_LAYER_NV_optimus=NVIDIA_only __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia wine .wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Rhino\ 7/System/Rhino.exe
and finishing commands doesn’t refresh the window (this is after clickling to complete the box):
Still hasn’t tested it on a properly large scene (only some boxes).
Statup times are really nice - ~12 seconds both on Intel iGPU and Nvidia dGPU. Seems about the same as on native Windows.
Firejail works as well with the default profile and this .config/firejail/wine.local:
whitelist ${HOME}/.wine
whitelist ${HOME}/.cache/winetricks
whitelist ${HOME}/.cache/wine
whitelist ${HOME}/Desktop
tmpfs ${HOME}/Desktop
disable-mnt
net none
# ignore allow-debuggers
not sure why allow-debuggers is needed, but otherwise licensing doesn’t work.
I’ve tried bottles, as well, but couldn’t even start the installer (always only showed a blank white window).
