Writing down the step by step so I don't forget it. :D

This was done on Ubuntu 16.10 with a Nvidia 1070

1. Get the latest wine:

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt-add-repository 'https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/'
wget https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/Release.key && sudo apt-key add Release.key
sudo apt update && sudo apt install winehq-stable

2. Make a win32 wine prefix for alleg

export WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.wine_alleg" WINEARCH=win32 wine wineboot

Remember to export that WINEPREFIX again whenever opening a new terminal to use this wine setup

3. Configure stuff

winecfg

Just click ok.

4. Install all the Microsoft baloney

winetricks corefonts d3x09_42 vcrun2008 xact vcrun2008

5. Download Steam for Windows and install it.

wine SteamSetup.exe

6. Run steam with the no sandbox option, otherwise the Store won't render.

wine Steam.exe -no-cef-sandbox

If it crashes, Ctrl+C and try again.

7. Install Alleg.

Select Windowed launch. At this step, it fails to validate font.mdl and crashes. :doh:

note for linux users:

an old windows PC + steam in-home-streaming might be an ok workaround
