    I just wanted to post this quick tutorial that worked for me for installing ams2cm on linux using wine, you should be able to copy and paste to get the same results

    Get the zip on racedepartment, extract it and put the msi in downloads for simplicity

    1. Make a separate wine prefix to install AMS2CM in (you can choose the path but keep in mind to replace it for the rest of the steps):
    mkdir ~/ams2cm_wine_prefix
    2. Install the dependencies for it:
    wineprefix=~/ams2cm_wine_prefix winetricks -q dotnetdesktop6
    3. Run the installer, and make sure to select the install of the command line version too, I just selected to install all options:
    wineprefix=~/ams2cm_wine_prefix wine Downloads/AMS2CM.msi
    4. Next you need to create a new drive so that it can see the game folder:
    winecfg
    next select drives, and add a new one, setting the path of the automobilista 2 folder to it
    5. Edit the config.yaml file in the AMS2CM folder inside c:program files/AMS2CM, setting the path to the drive letter you just created i.e D:/
    6. Create a new folder called mods in the automobilista 2 folder, and two subfolders called enabled and disabled
    7. put any mods you want to install into the enabled folder
    8. wine "C:\Program Files\AMS2CM\AMS2CM.exe"

    9. success!
