    For anyone having persistent issues with lutris (it does happen), I suggest to manually install the package downloaded from the lutris website instead of the package that is offered by your distro's package manager. I myself went through a dreaded cascade of dependency issues that nearly caused me to format my entire pc and start over from scratch when I finally tried the debian package, which works like a charm!
    Also, it's not a bad idea to disable automatic updates to nvidia drivers when everything works as it should. Every time an update for my nvidia drivers is installed automatically, my nvidia control panel loses 80% of its functionality and most video games simply stop working. For the record: my AMD gpu rig has no issues with drivers whatsoever. If you're a devout linux gamer, you're far better off building an AMD powered machine, as AMD is more generous when it comes to contributing to open-source drivers.

    I noticed games can become broken and not start anymore when messing with Wine settings for each of the added games. I managed to fix this by removing the .wine folder altogether but you have to be careful to backup any savegame or game thats stored in that folder before proceeding. This enabled me to "reset" the wine prefix and the broken games worked again in Lutris.

      Yeah it was a pre-installed game. It's the same procedure for installation. Choose the exe file, enter the path to install, once it does install, right click on the game, click configure, them change the exe file to the one of the installed game from the setup exe.

    Is there a way to use proton instead of wine? Or is wine better?

    • @GsMultiverse
      @GsMultiverse  Před 2 lety +4

      You don't need to use proton outside of steam. Lutris wine has all the necessary things for exactly the same level of game playability. Proton just contains some steam specific components. You are NOT losing out on anything by using Lutris-wine.

    • @MikkoRantalainen
      @MikkoRantalainen Před 10 měsíci

      @@GsMultiverse Indeed, Proton is the name Valve gave to its fork of Wine. And as Proton is also open source, Wine will slowly include all the good/generic bits anyway. In theory, Proton could sometimes have a bugfix that hasn't yet been incorporated to Wine but that shouldn't last long until Wine is also updated.

    • @GsMultiverse
      @GsMultiverse  Před 2 lety +2

      Unfortunately i don't have a steam deck. It's not available in my country. A flatpak version of the app will be released in the near future. Combined with the fact that proton is already set-up on a Steam Deck (you don't need to install wine), it should be pretty easy to setup and should be similar to my tutorial. However, I'd say don't take my word for it. There will be people making videos once Lutris gets Steam Deck support and those should fit the bill.

    Hello, good morning. I have a problem with Lutris.
    You know, I see in this video that "auto" appears in the prefix, not what it is or how to configure it, any help you can give me? I need it to emulate Lineage 2.
    Thanks for your support!
    When I launch the game, it says "prefix not configured"..

      Sorry to disappoint but i don't know. You're better off asking this in a linux related subreddit. If you find the solution, don't forget to post it. :)
