I switched my computer to Ubuntu recently because it ran like crap on Windows 7. Now it runs as smooth as a brand new computer. One problem, though: I can't play Roblox on it! I have a lot of experience in coding, but I need to know the command line options for RobloxPlayerBeta.exe in order to get it going. I know there are things out there that allow you to play Roblox on Linux, but not only are they hard to find, but hard to use as well! I'm thinking of making a Firefox plugin or something that replaces the "Play" button with a button that executes a wine command when clicked. All I really need to know is what execution options to put after the exe.

@LegendaryPyromancer No, I haven't. That's a good idea! (lol)

@vividtrip Yes, I have. When I tried pipelight, it didn't register in firefox as a plugin. This is why I'm making my own.

Also, I don't want to have to copy and paste the url of a game just to play it.

.exe stands for Windows executable. It is Windows only by definition. You'd need something like W.ine to run ROBLOX.

Never mind. Found it while messing around with wine. (It's "--id arg" where "arg" is the id number of the game)
