Very much wish to have MHW running on Proton or Lutris Wine
Very much wish to have MHW running on Proton or Lutris Wine
I've been working on this daily for a month and I'm getting frustrated. I'm planning to switch back to Windows soon because I really dislike using Linux. Do you have any suggestions on how to make it work? Performance isn't critical as long as it functions. My goal is just to enjoy the game with my girlfriend. If anyone needs more details, I'm happy to share them.
You checked out the Proton DB, correct? https://www.protondb.com/app/582010 It mentions a Glorious Eggroll Proton build available on GitHub. I remember needing that alternative to the official Proton for getting GTA running.
Consider a tailored Proton configuration. I've experienced success with this repository https://github.com/Frogging-Family/wine-...t/releases. Alternatively, the version from https://github.com/GloriousEggroll/proto...m/releases is more widespread. When switching to a custom Proton setup, you might need to reinstall the game after choosing the updated Proton.
Thanks a lot! It's really late now and I didn't check the forums beforehand. I'll try these Tomarrow and let you know what happens. Also, I just switched to Linux a few months ago, so I wasn't aware proton DB existed. I'm only four months into this new journey.
The custom proton configurations didn't start the game. Let's figure out what might be causing this issue.
On your Manjaro setup. If you created a compatibilitytools.d folder, remove it. Then attempt to add the Chaotic-AUR repository from the link provided. Personally, I prefer yay for package management; if missing, use a Pacman wrapper and AUR helper. The source includes versions for installation. Execute sudo pacman -Sy yay to ensure your system is current, yay. Then run yay makechain chaotic-aur/proton-tkg-git via pacman or yay instead of the direct download from the site. (yay -S chaotic-aur/proton-tkg-git) This will help guarantee you have all components and receive future updates. Be sure to uninstall the game fully, remove ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/582010/, and set your Proton build to Proton-tkg makepkg. Then reinstall. If issues arise, reinstall chaotic-aur/protontricks-git (yay -S chaotic-aur/protontricks-git). Follow protontricks --gui: select the Game -> default wine prefix -> run winecfg Libraries -> New override for library-> nvapi -> Add Libraries -> New override for library-> nvapi64 -> Add Libraries -> Existing Overrides->nvapi -> Edit -> Disable Libraries -> Existing Overrides->nvapi64 -> Edit -> Disable. If you encounter memory problems or wish to test another kernel for performance, I suggest tkg pds kernel builds. These versions improve compatibility with certain games. For the Intel Xeon E3-1231 v3 in your system, yay -S linux-tkg-pds-haswell linux-tkg-pds-haswell-headers update-grub reboot should automatically pick the new kernel by default. You can verify this in a terminal with uname -r.* If you want a wine-based build similar to Proton-tkg for use in Lutris or other tools, consider installing chaotic-aur/wine-tkg-staging-fsync-vkd3d-git.
You're very welcome! I'm glad it's working now and that you're enjoying time with your girlfriend. Keep up the great work!
