1. Download and install Lutris.

2. Download the offline backup version of Resident Evil and Install inside Lutris.

3. Right click Resident Evil and select Configure.

4. Enable dgvoodoo2.

5. Play the game!

Issues:

FMVs are not working, only play the sounds. Maybe someone who knows more about the game or Winetricks will show how to enable the FMVs.

For some reason my controller (DS4) uses the analog to move the character under Linux, on Windows it is the d-pad.

Tip:

To configure the controller, inside the game press left stick to come up with the config menu.

It's working on Ubuntu now. Thank you!

Yes, let me modify your instructions:
1. Download and install Lutris.

2. Download the offline backup of Japanese language version Resident Evil and Install inside Lutris.

3. Right click Resident Evil and select Configure.

4. Enable dgvoodoo2.

5. Download Resident Evil Classic Rebirth DLL file as well as official 1.01 patch from classicrebirth.com/index.php/downloads/resident-evil-classic-rebirth

6. Copy both files to your installed game directory and overwrite BIOHAZARD.exe

7. In Lutris go to game configuration, then System options and add WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ddraw,dinput8=n,b" to Enviroment variables

8. Play the game!

Issues:
FMVs have Japanese subtitles hardcoded and you can't get rid of those. Other than that - zero issues.

Good advise, thank you!

I just want to add, that "Classic Rebirth" fansite also offers improved movies, which got no Japanese subtitles anymore. Also these run smoother. One can check it out.

Keep in mind, this way you get auto-aim function and more explicit cotent. Progress can only be saved at typewriters, though. Altogether, Resident Evil becomes simpler
