If anyone wants to know, LLJK mostly works on wine still.
The OP guide is still sorta accurate to nowadays, though you'll need to get "Play on Linux" (PoL) so you can specifically get wine 3.8 32bit. If you have a Mac, these instructions might also work for you if you use Play on Mac.
Alternatively you can find a manually compiled version of it somewhere, or get wine-git at the 3.8 release point and compile it yourself in a 32bit chroot. Idk your choice.
It's because there's a regression in wine 3.9+ that crashes dreamseeker on load. I reported it here. https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45486
You also do not need to install any directx stuff. fancy lighting works fine in default wined3d now. (Skip step 7 and 8)
Winetricks verbs have changed around a bit. Also, the OP's guide doesn't catch ALL the fonts (some fonts still show up with unicode errors or substitutions). As such, i'd recommend
winetricks allfonts mfc42 vcrun2013 wsh57 msls31 ie8
instead of step 4 AND step 9 in OP. Wine comes with gecko already, and it doesn't work well with the current version of byond. ( at least, for me. You can try it yourself first without msls31 and ie8 if you want to try. Ie9 definitely does not work yet still. I've tried with wine-staging 3.13 with their preliminary wusa.exe; it don't work. They haven't implemented msdelta yet.)
Either way, you'll get some warnings about old IE bindings. You can close the warning over the chat box by clicking it's uparrow unicode thing, and MOST things work. Some don't. Feel free to scream at them.
