"Linux can't run my cock and ball squeezing app!"

[-] Sabata11792@ani.social 69 points 3 weeks ago

Actually, I been much happier not being able to play League anymore.

[-] NoPanko@feddit.uk 27 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah I realised the only games I cant play on linux are the ones that really don’t respect my privacy/time/wallet so it ended up a net benefit

I had my first issue since switching just yesterday (I've been switched for a couple of months).

I wanted to run some mod installers for the old Kotor games but they're .exe files.

Only stuff I could get working was manual file-replacements and steam workshop mods.

[-] NoPanko@feddit.uk 1 points 3 weeks ago

You should be able to use those mod installers by running them with wine within the wine prefix Kotor is installed in surely?

[-] sunbytes@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

Not sure about wine. Haven't used it since like 2016.

I'm running all my games in steam with proton. Not sure if that's connected at all.

[-] NoPanko@feddit.uk 1 points 3 weeks ago

Proton is just wine with some extra stuff added, if you install protontricks this explains what to do.


protontricks-launch --appid <APPID> <EXE>

Should get you what you want, you can find app id by looking at the url of the game in the steam store or using

protontricks -s <GAME NAME>

Never been a better time to try dota 😈

[-] Sabata11792@ani.social 23 points 3 weeks ago

No. I'm clean man. I can't. Not again.

[-] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 3 weeks ago

Just a little match. For old time's sake

[-] Sabata11792@ani.social 3 points 3 weeks ago

I went though this with Mike, I must not repeat the sins of the past.

Stay strong! MOBAs are like rage-inducing crack!

[-] Sabata11792@ani.social 2 points 3 weeks ago

They also destroy friendships.

Good thing that Linux can run pretty much everything I want to play. Ckb-new and and Streamdeck-gui still need some finishing touches so that E:D and DCS are identical to old Windows setup, but everything else seems to run without a hitch.
