It can but it's already a headache to get the tools running, and adding in the VM layer can add more headaches.

Usually the compatibility patches make the games work in the VM, but the map editors and modding tools had a lot of issues last time I tried.

The tooling around those games was incredibly barbones so there are probably a lot of hacks going on that the VM wasn't properly stimulating.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
