Introduction

This a very short guide build on top of a guide written by Lil Lumby and Hamod9041 showing how to setup OpenMW in Linux. This is assuming you already have OpenMW installed, if you do not already follow the other guides or the OpenMW guide[openmw.org].

In Linux you can directly open OpenMW using the "openmw" command in a terminal, so using this guide you can create a file containing this command and launch it from steam.

Instructions

Create a script file of any name you want
I just use "OpenMW.sh"
Inside the file type "openmw" or "openmw-launcher" depending on your preference
Place it in a folder where you know the path/directory
I put it in the Morrowind directory steam uses.
By default steam uses: /home/YOURNAME/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/Morrowind
Make the file executable by opening terminal in the file's location and typing "chmod +x FILENAME" where FILENAME is the name of your file
So for me I used: "chmod +x OpenMW.sh"
Ctrl+Shift+T opens Terminal in many Linux distros
Go to the Morrowind page in your Steam library and open up the game properties
There should be a cog wheel in the right corner, which then has a dropdown showing the properties option
In the startup options add a command telling Steam where to run the executable file and appended it with: %command% to make it run it as a command.
For example I use: "./OpenMW.sh %command%", which looks in the steam Morrowind folder for the file and runs it as a command. Basically as if I had a terminal open and typed "openmw".

And that should be it.

Conclusion

If I'm missing any instructions or if any distros go about this in different ways please write a comment showing the method you used. I'm using Arch Linux so other Arch based distros should use the same instructions.

I'll happily update this guide if there are any suggestions if other instructions are needed for other distros. And thanks to the previous guide creators for providing instructions on how to integrate OpenMW directly through steam!

or you can just use luxtorpeda to more easily integrate openmw with steam on linux

Or skip steps 1-4 if you got it from the repos.

you can pull up just the command executable of either the launcher or the game itself and would work fine (if you downloaded openmw from the repos). It would work too in this case calling directly for the binary in /bin

Very well done. :)
I'll link to this in my guide for those using Linux to follow. I switched to Linux myself a while back and never got around to writing some Linux-specific instructions for the guide, but now it looks like I've been beaten to it, haha.
