Installing Oblivion Construction Set on Linux

Hello,

 

I'm a Linux user.

I have Oblivion & the GOTY DLC installed & running smoothly via PlayOnLinux.

 

I'm curious about specific instructions, or innovating working instructions, for installing the OBSE Construction Set.

 

(Notes: Reading various other peoples' posts, I've noted that the OBSE edition of the Construction Set is important, as well as using Wrye Bash for Mod Management with Linux, as well as installing 7z for unpacking the Mods within Linux.)

 

Do I add the Construction Set to the Oblivion install, or do I install the Construction Set in its' own Standalone install directory?

 

These are the instructions that I used to install Oblivion via PlayOnLinux, which is really handy because I could use my own install discs, & all I need to do to run the game is to open PlayOnLinux > click the Oblivion icon > press "Run".

(Note: I used those instructions for installing Oblivion upon a Debian 9 Stretch fresh install.

As well, I needed to use multiarch with sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 & install wine32 in order to get things working smoothly.

I ruined a previous build of Debian 9 Stretch because there were unmet dependencies upon trying to get wine32 installed, & somebody gave detrimental instructions upon the Debian Bug Report site. So, this actually worked upon a fresh install of Debian 9 Stretch with aware of the necessity & process of installing wine32 upon that fresh install.)

 

Cheers!!
