I have my own copy of goty morrowind in my gog account for my gaming in windows, but now i use Linux and I realised that gog only gives you the setup for windows.
I dont want to install it through wine and make the openmwlauncher take the data files from the virtual windows folders

exists a method to extract the data without installing it?
Thanks a lot

-EDIT- (SOLUTION)

K0kt409P Gave me the solution, I'm postint this here to be more easy to find it if someone have the same problem:

If you are using ubuntu follow those steps:

1- sudo apt-get update
2- sudo apt-get install innoextract
3- innoextract {route where your gog setup.exe is without brackets} and enter
4- wait and execute your openmw launcher, then select the folder "app" in your home directory and select morrowind.esm
5- Go to data files in the openMW launcher and create a new profile
6- open the content dropdown and select morrowind.esm then you can select all your expansions

Thanks K0kt409P and all users that help me!

Since innoextract is free software, it could theoretically be integrated with OpenMW's installation wizard to support installing directly from the GOG installer.

Just use the installation wizard of the openmw launcher and point it to your installation source. Settings->Run Installation Wizard.

I don't think that helps him as gog delivers their games as an installable .exe.

one possibility also is to use 7zip or some other to open .exe.
data files are probaply as separate to avoid data corruption at least

That might work. I'm not sure if GOG installation files are encrypted in some way, but they at least possibly seem to be able to be browsed from 7zip.

If they are self-extracting executables, it would be a nice feature request for the installer to support them.

Thanks a lot!! It works!! And it's super easy to use! just had to make this:
apt-get install innoextract
innoextract /home/xavi/Downloads/setup_tes_morrowind_goty_2.0.0.7.exe
and then just select the folder of the extraction in my home folder.

Thanks a lot!

Thank you K0kt409P.

That sounds good, I think I'm going to re-buy Morrowind from gog, I'm tired of using CDs.
Edit: 20€? Too much, they are crazy.
