I know the previous thread died because you're all having SEX, but I was busy changing the thermal paste in my old PC instead. I'm not sure if I did it very well because I can't see through the bastard heatsink, but the temperatures haven't gotten catastrophically worse as far as I can tell. I had a hell of a time getting the heat sink fan back in place, because it has these stupid pins instead of screws and they really didn't want to click into place. This is what I get for doing this on Friday the 13th, but I didn't realize the date until a few minutes ago.
I also broke the clip holding the little fan cable to the motherboard, or rather, the clip that made it impossible to fucking remove, so good riddance. I could barely get a grip on the tiny-ass plug with its sharp-ass corners, and prying a clip away from it at the same time as pulling it out was proving to be such a literal pain that I'm glad the fucker broke. I don't need a tiny little cable being held in place with 9000 pounds of force. It's snug enough. I'm glad this is only my old computer though.

Anyone tried that GOG version of Dino Crisis on Linux?
Yes, I see there's a Steam version with bizarrely higher system requirements and third-party DRM, but the GOG version is the same price and I assume the Enigma-infected Steam release is just for people who don't know GOG exists.

I know, it's just that every time a Linux FOSS software I've used gets abandoned, I get sadder.
I'm still worried about Lutris ending this way too.

Is there any way to mitigate input lag caused by high GPU usage?
I've been testing a few more demanding titles on linux (cachyOS) and I thought my controller was getting stupidly laggy sometimes (and I don't mean silly couple of milisecond latency shits, I mean almost half a second of the analog doing something without me even touching it, even once started just spinning endlessly). I thought to try capping framerates with lower settings, but as I suspected, the input lag problem is generally present not when the framerate is low, but the GPU usage is at around 98 to 100%. Of course it's less noticeable if that happens at high framerates, but the point is it's much more severe than I thought.
I thought it was my gamepad as well, but I tried with my mouse and it wasn't a lot better either. There is definitely some GPU usage being so high it's not letting this thing absorb inputs fast. Any ideas? Any scheduler or whatever I can use to prevent this? CPU usage isn't high.
I'm on AMD. I noticed one thing: It does get worse if I use Proton-GE instead of Proton-CachyOS. So there might be something there.

>>557381920

What the hell is a Fluorine
I didn't like Lutris for quite some time. I remember still having to deal with manually creating folders for new prefixes which was kinda dumb. I went to bottles, found it to work much simpler, but it was janky and I remember having a lot of trouble with japanese fonts because they weren't registering correctly. Then I tried Heroic and it worked quite well. Now there's this faugus thing, I'm trying to catch up. What the hell is Fluorine? Is that another thing on top?

>>557410735
I tested both.
I mean I'm having an input lag difference that at least correlates with what I'm seeing on screen. MangoHUD is reporting maxed out GPU usage, I get tons of input lag. If I don't, I don't get the same input lag. If for instance I set graphical settings down, so my FPS go higher, but then I cap the FPS to something similar to what I got before, and the GPU usage goes down to 80% or 70%, the input lag isn't there, is what I'm referring to.
So something is there and I'm trying to figure it out. If it has no effect, then what the fuck else?

Wayland shouldn't be an issue as long you're using anything other than KDE.
Gamescope is broken and in maintenance mode and I'm sure Valve doesn't care about it anymore unless they have an update ready for the Steam machine release.

>>557413278
I tried using GNOME and while I got more consistent frames somehow, I got this weird thing where VRR enabled meant the framerate got halved (so it reported 70fps for instance, but it looked 35 until I alt+tabbed which obviously disabled VRR). That is on wine on wayland mode. Also HDR worked really weird.
I thought of trying Hyprland but last time I tried setting up HDR in there it was a royal mess. I don't think I have any more options.

>>557412895

I've never tried the game, but it seems I have it in my Steam library (though I don't remember when I got it). I could try it later tonight. But I'm probably just going to start off with whatever tweaks are recommended on ProtonDB which you can go see for yourself if you haven't already:
https://www.protondb.com/app/12130
At a glance, it looks like a real bitch to run. The latest report intrigues me, with its editing of the executable. I don't really understand exactly what that command does in detail, but the alternative seems to be downloading a fixed version from somewhere other than Steam, which seems riskier than what looks like a command to insert some null bytes into the .exe file.

>>557448370

>>557468364
Rather than following the latest ProtonDB report to the letter (which includes using Proton 9.0-4), I kept the game on my default compatibility tool which is Proton 10.0-4. (I tend to use the latest "stable" i.e. numbered version and I think that's it.) I tried launching the game "out of the box" just for good measure, but knowing that:
>several reports recommend Wine DLL overrides for d3d8 and ddraw
>several reports recommend renaming some included testapp.exe to replace the included manhunt.exe
>several reports recommend some "Manhunt Fixer" patch (this and the file renaming might be mutually exclusive)
>that latest report recommends not only renaming testapp.exe to manhunt.exe but also modifying the executable to disable anti-piracy measures which break saves (which is extra annoying because I won't really know if I need this until I run into whatever issue "breaks saves" is describing)
Anyway, just running the game with no changes brought up a launcher window in which I selected my native resolution as the screen mode... and from there, I was able to launch the game, and get as far as the main menu... and from there, I hit "play" and clicked through the brightness setting screen and selected a difficulty mode and started a save file... and then watched a cutscene, and started the gameplay...
Uh, isn't the game supposed to be way more broken than this? Yes, I know that the anti-piracy measures will break saves according to the latest ProtonDB report, but I literally did nothing here except launch the game -- no Wine DLL overrides, and no executable renaming. I guess I'll play for a bit and see where it stops working.
Obviously this is 4:3 stretched to 16:10 so I'll want a widescreen patch, but the game isn't crashing or anything. Did recent Proton updates fix the issue described by the "out of the box it just crashes" report for Proton 9.0-4 from 8 months ago?

Well, it crashed during gameplay, specifically while I was picking up and then putting down a body. Attached screenshot of execution cutscene unrelated.
So I guess there's some instability, at least. Still better than "doesn't run at all" which is what I assumed would be the out-of-the-box experience. Again I haven't done any tinkering yet.

Crashed in the same area again. So maybe this crash IS the anti-piracy fuckery that needs to be fixed by renaming and/or modifying executables. I guess I'll try using testapp.exe instead, but rather than renaming files, maybe I can just put this in the launch options to make Steam run testapp.exe directly:
>bash -c 'exec "${@/manhunt.exe/testapp.exe}"' -- %command%
Trying that now...

>>557472441
Yup. With the launch options replacing "manhunt.exe" with "testapp.exe" in the game's run command, I got past the gate in the previous screenshot (which, in addition to the crash that happened near there, wasn't opening before -- which is likely a broken anti-piracy thing, now circumvented by using the other executable which has no anti-piracy measures or something).
After a fight tutorial, I saved before quitting, so we'll see if I can load the save. That latest ProtonDB report had some note about the anti-piracy breaking saves, and it fixed it by not only using (by renaming) but also modifying the alternative executable...?
I'm a little confused by what exactly these tweaks are supposed to do. So I went to PC Gaming Wiki which has a LOT of shit about this game. Here's one note about the Manhunt Fixer patch, which I'm not using but the bulk of this is still relevant:
>Manhunt Fixer makes the game run through testapp.exe by renaming it to manhunt.exe to fix these issues since it bypasses the anti-piracy measures. However, the renamed executable may cause the game to refuse to launch due to Data Execution Prevention (DEP) being triggered since it's a literal crack of the game that rockstar put into the legitimate version of the game. This was reportedly fixed on Windows when using the steam version of the game, however this issue may still be present; (DEP is a part of Windows anti-virus protection).
Okay, so I'm using testapp.exe and thus bypassing the anti-piracy measures, and the remaining issue is that testapp.exe is an actual pirate copy which triggers anti-virus shit? Is the
>printf "\x00" | dd of=manhunt.exe bs=1 seek=2270 count=2 conv=notrunc
in the ProtonDB report (where manhunt.exe is the renamed testapp.exe) meant to remove the part that the anti-virus doesn't like?
Anyway... it seems to be working for me just by using the cracked (lmao) executable.

File: MANHUNT | 2026-02-14 23-45-24-936557156.png (2.2 MB)

Well I was able to load the save with no problem. Here's me fucking up at stealth.
So I guess the game works just by making Steam run the cracked executable, which apparently doesn't work for others because of anti-virus stuff (and I assume that's what >>557450586 meant but I don't know what security thing on Linux would actually search for some warez group's signature and prevent this from running).
If there are minor graphics bugs (e.g. maybe this film grain effect isn't supposed to look so ass), then I don't know because have no frame of reference, having never played the game before. But as far as being able to run it, I don't see the big deal. Sorry >>557448370 if you had more trouble than this.

>>557475167
I don't know what other issues might crop up later, or might happen on different hardware or whatever. There are apparently multiple issues, and I have no idea how to guess which of them are
>simply not an issue on Linux
>not an issue anymore with the latest Proton
>already fixed by game patches (e.g. see the "reportedly fixed" in that PCGW quote)
etc., and I still don't know what the Wine DLL overrides for d3d8 and ddraw all over the ProtonDB reports are supposed to fix. I apparently didn't need them unless I just haven't noticed what they fix.

>>557475167
Also, simply doing the file renaming like
>mv manhunt.exe renamed.exe
>mv testapp.exe manhunt.exe
is probably sufficient to get Steam to use the other executable, despite my preference to use the arcane launch options in >>557472441. I just wanted to leave the game files as unmodified as possible.

File: Screenshot from 2026-02-15 00-17-14.png (44.5 KB)

Oh, I see. The "Manhunt Fixer" patch includes a d3d8 wrapper. That would probably explain the Wine DLL overrides for d3d8 in the ProtonDB reports. And any ProtonDB reports that recommend overriding d3d8 despite not using the patch are probably just "monkey see, monkey do".
I'm not sure about the ddraw override but maybe it's also included in this or some other patch which I'm too lazy to install right now.
The game doesn't contain any ddraw.dll or d3d8.dll out of the box, so I'm pretty sure the overrides wouldn't make sense unless these files are being added by something.

Manhunt Fixer might be worth using if the audio glitches happen on Linux. I wasn't paying much attention to the audio so I can't say if I already encountered any.
As for the "AI bugging out", it looks like this is a high-frame-rate issue caused by Vsync for old games being broken on modern Windows, but I don't think the game was actually exceeding 60 FPS for me. This might not be an issue on Linux.

Steam's frame rate display shows it's running at 60 fps, so the broken-Vsync/high-frame-rate issues and resulting AI bugs are probably not a thing in Proton.

There's UMU_NO_RUNTIME environment variable and proton-cachyos already running without runtime (giving it installed on CachyOS since CachyOS ships patched umu that allows proton-cachyos to run without a runtime).

One more note about Manhunt for >>557448370 >>557475167:
I tried and failed to find any other documentation of that latest ProtonDB report's claim that one should run
>printf "\x00" | dd of=manhunt.exe bs=1 seek=2270 count=2 conv=notrunc
after renaming testapp.exe to manhunt.exe, so I still don't know exactly what effect it has or why I need it. (To be clear, I didn't run that command before the testing done above; I only told Steam to run testapp.exe via launch options.) The report says the command "rewrites the executable so that anti-piracy measures are always disabled" but I thought disabling the anti-piracy was the whole point of renaming testapp.exe (supposedly a cracked pirate copy) to manhunt.exe in the first place, so what the frick.
Anyway, running what is supposedly a warez group's cracked executable seems a bit sketchy even if Rockstar thought it was good enough to pass off as their own, and that ProtonDB report's further modification of the cracked executable implies there's something still subtly wrong with it (with no clue what that might be), so I wanted to try another fix.
There is a patch which apparently circumvents the anti-piracy measures in the original executable:
>https://github.com/Fire-Head/MHNoDRM
So I removed the launch options given in >>557472441 (thus setting the game back to its normal state), downloaded "MHNoDRM.asi" from that GitHub repo, and dropped that file into the game folder. This appears to be working, as it fixes the crash and locked gate at >>557472441 without any need for switching executables, which is nice. And I reckon this patch is at least as trustworthy as a cracked executable distributed by a lazy publisher.

>>557481513

That's unfortunate. Maybe they'll fix it and introduce once again.
Anyway, there's a new patch in proton-em that implements server-side decorations. This and system tray are the only remaining things for me to deem wine wayland as ready (of course you would want all that shit upstream and not in the form of patches for a some random proton fork).

Sorry for going on and on about this, but I might as well close the loop on something about which I already complained at length.
It looks like that ProtonDB report's modification of the renamed executable with `dd` is based on what the Manhunt Fixer patch does in its "exepatch" source code.
>https://github.com/ermaccer/Manhunt.Fixer/blob/master/manual/source/exepatch/exepatch.cpp
The hexadecimal value
>DWORD dwOffset = 0x8DE;
in the patch's source code is equal to the decimal value
>seek=2270
in the `dd` command. So in renaming the executables and then modifying some bytes, it seems the author of the latest ProtonDB report was reproducing what exepatch does (or was at least attempting to do so). So it does make sense. I had renamed the executables but hadn't modify the bytes, and the game seemed to be working for me, but I guess it's possible that I would have run into some issue later on as a result of not completing the steps that the exepatch code would automate.
I'm probably just going to keep using MHNoDRM though. Using MHNoDRM to fix the original executable is easier, especially if the modification to the alternate executable is necessary for it to work fully.

Oh, MangoHud works. In the past, I had seen it fail to work for some other DX8 games until I turned on D8VK, so I actually assumed this game would be the same. But it just works (and of course shows WineD3D because D8VK is off by default in Proton).

I suppose I should switch to a 4:3 resolution, because I haven't grabbed a widescreen patch yet, and have been doing everyone's eyes a disservice by posting stretched garbage.
I do expect ThirteenAG's widescreen patch to work after adding the appropriate Wine DLL override, based on prior experience with is widescreen patches (and DLL-based patches in general), but I'm keeping it 4:3 for now.

Enabled D8VK by replacing
>mangohud %command%
with
>PROTON_DXVK_D3D8=1 MANGOHUD=1 %command%
in the launch options.
I haven't scrutinized the game enough to know what difference this makes, but according to PC Gaming Wiki, Proton users should prefer D8VK over the custom D3D8 wrapper applied by Manhunt Fixer.

I've made a small change in MangoHud so it now shows if game is using SDL GPU API, not just Vulkan.

>>557515337
I think it is, and I think that's why I can enable it just by adding an environment variable. But it's not enabled by default, at least not in Proton.

ThirteenAG's widescreen fix added.
It uses dinput8.dll, but required no WINEDLLOVERRIDES option. I think it's because the current Proton overrides dinput8.dll automatically due to its frequent use in mods; I saw discussion of such a change on GitHub once.

The sum of my Manhunt tinkering.
Recommendations from ProtonDB/PCGW that I've ignored thus far (or reverted):
>Manhunt Fixer, which is a combination of several other fixes:
>>the exepatch (and any alternative implementations thereof), made redundant by MHNoDRM;
>>the custom D3D8 wrapper, presumably made redundant by D8VK;
>>the audio fix, because I haven't noticed any audio bugs;
>>a frame rate lock for broken Vsync, which doesn't appear to be an issue on Linux (and MangoHud could take care of it anyway);
>DLL overrides for Manhunt Fixer and possibly other patches;
>skipping intro videos, because they don't bother me that much.

>is there a way to run battle.net on linux?
Yes, that's how I've been running StarCraft 1 which I "finished" (but not Brood War yet) last thread: >>556735979
I installed it with Bottles, which has a built-in Battle.net installer, and the only fucky part was that Bottles' default Wine runner didn't work and I had to switch to a different one. Kron4ek Wine Staging TkG worked. See my archived post:
>https://arch.b4k.dev/vg/thread/550785138/#551471226
Note that this was late last year, and because I set my StarCraft shortcut to use the "-launch" option that skips the Battle.net log-in, I'm pretty sure Battle.net hasn't updated since then. So if any Battle.net updates have fucked up its Wine compatibility even more, then I wouldn't be aware of that.

Not using Manjaro btw but it was one of the first results and it worked.
It's great that I can just create a file to fix this but it's stupid that mono sound isn't a basic built-in option in every audio control menu. I know a broken speaker is a stupid use case, but sometimes I want to listen to stuff with one earbud etc. and I'm not the only one.

Unfortunately this is one of those games that scales like a bastard.
This is my fault for being such a based 16:10 gigachad, I guess, but the game is 16:9 and stretches to 16:10 instead of letterboxing. But that's okay, right? There's windowed mode and an option to change the window scale.
>1x: 480x270
>2x: 960x540
>3x: 1440x810
>4x: ... 1912x1080 ?!
The mathematicians among you may note that 4x should have been 1920x1080 which would be perfect, but apparently it's afraid to fill the entire screen width and backs off a few pixels on each side. Holy fuck.
In theory, gamescope is the solution, but:
1. In my experience, gamescope tends to introduce input lag at best and occasionally dropped inputs at worst.
2. This is my ancient shitbox computer whose GPU is not supported by gamescope — at least not when I'm using the amdgpu driver. I haven't tried the radeon driver in a long time; it was years ago that someone told me to put "radeon.si_support=0 amdgpu.si_support=1" in the grub cmdline thing for better Vulkan support and I haven't bothered to ask if that's still recommended.

Even the resolution in >>557541151 got screwed up somehow. The width is 8 pixels too small. Not sure how that happened; 2x scale actually was 960x540 when I went through all the options before that last post.

>>557556762
Is this a meme? Because every single time I hear of this launcher, it's someone just saying "just use Faugus" without elaboration, in response to a specific question to which it's not clear why Faugus in particular is the best answer. Install Faugus and then what? Is there something that makes it especially well suited to running Battle.net or WoW (like an installer script or automatic tweaks) or is it just a really nice Wine/Proton/Umu front-end? Third-party launchers like Battle.net tend to be fucky enough that people will need more instruction than simply "here's a snappy GUI for managing Wine".

Some of my top played on Steam are games I don't like anymore, my percentage of unplayed games is probably inflated to hell by bundles that I bought for only one or two of their games, my recently played is often polluted by those bundles' other games which I ran just to see if they work on Linux or just to get trading cards to sell, and nevertheless I'd probably be horrified by my total playtime.

Actually, three of them (Iconoclasts, Owlboy, Transistor), and one more with only a Playable rating (Bastion).
Okay so the Linux port of Transistor "just works" only if you're lucky enough that it doesn't choose the wrong audio device by default, but it's easily fixed by changing a number in a config file even if that does happen.

>New Plasma version is out
Huh, it was supposed to come out in 2 weeks on Arch like it usually does.
As for HDR fixes, I didn't notice any change in The First Descendant but I noticed it in Titan Quest with the RenoDX addon, it now uses my configured brightness of 203 nits while before it was much higher.

>>557828563
I'll need to check how it behaves now with some games with the wrong kind of tonemapping

>>557829687
So this is fucked, I actually didn't even notice I was already using 6.6
Anyways is the new Plasma HDR calibration tool even working properly? The second test (paper white I assume) tells you to make the logo barely visible, but that's pretty much max brightness (on True Black 400, so 456 nits in my case). I thought this was a 203 set and forget sort of thing. This shit is so confusing.

>>557830559
The third part is where you change it to 203 nits.

>another thing to calibrate

>And unlike in Wangblows you don't have to turn HDR off constantly for usage outside of vidya.
I don't
I just set the brightness appropriately and shit just doesn't look "off". I don't use AutoHDR either.
But I'm glad at least with this update half the games don't look like the sun unless you set an environment variable, or at least I hope so. I'll have to try this shit

I just loaded my 200 mods instance from MO2 that I was running with Steam Tinker Launcher and Proton and it just works

Christ.
I did try myself 6.6 with HDR and I'm seeing the same need for disabling tonemapping to get some games to not look broken. Kind of a bummer.

2026 and people still don't realize HDR is a meme?

>>557860740
It would be if it didn't work pretty well under a different set of circumstances.

>>557861264
Yes
I've tried recalibrating, instead of setting 203 on the last screen just maxing it out. I tried disabling that new box that says something along the lines of "assume windows applications are calibrated properly" or whatever the fuck.
This is on wine on wayland btw. I didn't try HDR through gamescope, but I had mixed results there in the past.

>>557861602
Well, gamescope does seem to work with HDR fine on top of plasma, weirdly enough.

i'll get a hdr display when kde 6.7 is out

6 minutes after my post and down to page 5 fuck gatcha

I started over because I forgot how to play but I guess I never played it that much in the first place, because here I am again.

how tf do i get er-patcher to work for elden ring

usecase for gamescope's sdl backend?

>>557855581
oh shit i saw this mentioned when i was looking into modding fallout but didn't use it cause it's still alpha

>>557898490
you get it to work by reading its github page

>>557919893
i added the launch arguments and it's arguments like it said but the game won't launch

>>557920230
Are you trying it on a new install of the game or was ER already installed?

>>557921834
ER was already installed

>>557921884
Post your launch options.

>>557922108
python er-patcher --all --rate 90 -p -- %command%

>>557922348
try python3

>>557922562
still no luck

>>557922825
You did copy the er-patcher file from github page and check if you have proper python installed?

>>557923289
i have er-patcher in ~/path to steam/steamapps/common/ELDEN RING/Game
and yeah i have python 3.14.3 which is newer than 3.8 which they list on the github

>>557923507
>Game
That's not where the game's exe is, but in base Elden Ring folder?
Been a while since I've played the game.

this is the root folder
the .exe is in "Game", so as far as i know i have the file in the right location

>>557924102
Dunno what the issue can be, I guess the game is set to offline mode in the options?

>>557924901
steam is online, and so is the game, i see bloodstains and phantoms everywhere
i suppose i guess i'm gonna have to try and complete clean install of ER and see if that fixes it

>>557925087
>so is the game
Then set the game in offline mode.

how can i download a demo game from steam without steam? i don't want to install steam to download it. sandustry btw

https://github.com/Marc-Pierre-Barbier/ModManager

Not sure this is the place for it, but did anyone here try using a different distro on the Deck and ended up preferring it?

>>557934719
the demo is up on cs rin ru, there's also steamcmd

>>557934719
Besides the methods mentioned early, isn't the demo in itch.io the same one?

>>557935968
there isn't a exe download on itch and my browser doesn't run the demo so i have to find the exe somewhere

how do i even go about reporting/troubleshooting this extremely specific bug
>playing deadlock
>go into vesktop (third patry discord client because official one is shit) voice channel with irl friends
>any time i press 'o' ingame deadlock crashes and someimes takes steam down with it
it has never happened if i solo queue and in not in a voice call.

>>557937207
To me it'd be easier to just use a browser that works with it but that's just me

>>557937250
i'm not sure why it doesn't work. it's regular firefox

was disappointed to find out Fluorine is vibe coded, found bunch of mod managers. wonder if any of them are good.

Any ideas? I already tried remapping the gamepad in 'wine control' and flipping through settings in Lutris
Guess I could play with keyboard lol

based on what. i'm trying out modsanity and it looks pretty good so far.

>>557945798
>symlink/hardlink
way tux(pbuh) intended it. vfs has overhead or whatever.
>Nexusmods integration and nxm
Nexus API key for Nexus features (browse/import/download/catalog populate)
>No INI/Saves management
no use case. just bloat.
>Poor amount of supported games
fair. but I only need it for bethesda games.

Done with this one, boss took me over 5 mins because the mod author increased his hp massively and also added respawning troopers shooting you from all sides.
Next fps will maybe be the 2009 one.

Dunno, latest changes in HDR work great. Now HDR white point values in Forza are in line with my display calibration, which wasn't the case before 6.6. Are you sure your display has proper HDR support?

Well, that's it for Quake 2 RTX. It was a nice benchmark for my new GPU. I wonder if there are more native Linux games with ray-tracing?

>>557965223
It's a 271 QPX. It does have as decent HDR support as it gets, granted a lot of ABL with its higher than 400 nits modes.
For reference, if I do the same (wine on wayland HDR) on Hyprland, it just looks correctly.

>>557962104
Is this underground 2, American wasteland, or..?

>>557965628
Maybe you should report it to KDE since it might be some bug

>>557965682
It's on the engine of THAW, but the reTHAWed mod is 14gb large and makes it have maps, skins and tricks from the entire franchise. They have a Linux installer but you need to run the game through a compat layer in the end. THAW is on archive.org in 5-CD ISO form

meant to say "use GE-Proton latest but disable every toggle button in 'Runner options' tab in Lutris"

>>557392415
I had to delete my post since it was about how Lutris was becoming abandonware since it hadn't seen an update in over a year. Saw that it recently got an update a couple days ago.
I've been using Faugus since it's currently being actively supported it has it's issue but it's coming along. Will check out this newer Lutris update. Had some issues with Lutris where some games not working in gamemode on Steam Deck.

but yeah like anon said enable multilib database and get the 32-bit drivers.

>>557973647
>lutris
>abandonware
There are tons of commits on their repo...

>>557967021
That sucks, I wanted to check it out, last time I checked freestyle gunz worked

>>557974250
The commits look like how a lazy co-worker will just shift things around to look busy but nothing really is happening.

>>557974269
Yeah the game itself would've worked fine, it's just their integration with Steam that's broken. If you start it says "Please run it through Steam", which it is.

>>557974762
I believe you. I'm just a nocoder

Honestly I kinda just want to be able to run "wine game.exe" and have it work. Maybe I should actually install DXVK to my system's default Wine prefix and see how it goes. I know that's not all these programs do, but I bet at good number of games would work without the need for more
