Install Grapejuice on Linux Mint

This document will guide you through the steps of installing Grapejuice on Linux Mint. Please read it in its entirety, from top to bottom.

Installation options

The follwing Grapejuice installation methods can be used to install Grapejuice on Linux Mint:

• Source Installation
• Package
• Flatpak

It is recommended you use the Flatpak method for Linux Mint. Do not install both multiple at the same time. Doing so will cause conflicts in your system. If you are not sure which method to use, stick to the recommended option.

If, for some obscure reason, the Flatpak version of Grapejuice does not work on your system, you can uninstall the Flatpak and try the package method.

Install Grapejuice using Flatpak

Installation instructions for the Flatpak package are the same for all distributions. Check out the Flatpak page in the sidebar for instructions on using the Flatpak package.

Enable 32-bit support

Roblox still relies on some 32-bit libraries. In order to make those work, you will have to enable 32-bit support on your installation. Enable 32-bit support by running the following command:

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386

Install Wine

Before you do anything with Grapejuice, you need to have Wine installed. Roblox will only work if you have wine-staging 8.0 or higher installed on your system. If your distribution does not have the required Wine version, its recommended to install Wine Staging from the official WineHQ website. if you do not want to install another version of Wine globally, you can check out the guide on using custom Wine builds.
