Epic-Asset-Manager VS AreWeAntiCheatYet

I use the wonderful Epic Asset manager, available from Flathub

Also available through Epic Asset Manager. Required a slight fix, but is ok now. Not sure what to do with the bridge plugin though..

-There’s a flatpak called Epic Asset Manager (is also on AUR), there you can install the engine itself, you can download assets or even games from EGS (although for games I prefer heroic launcher)

The recommended way of getting Epic Asset Manager is through flathub so if you want to give it a go, try that route.

Epic Asset Manager is working to use official prebuilt binary instead of using Docker image/UE source code (#201) so I hope that remove the require to link Epic account with GitHub account.

Are you referring to this Epic Asset Manager?

My hope is that the community maintained asset manager gets more popular, since this kind of thing shouldn't be that hard to add.

That's all for now. I didn't test how unity works because I have no experince with Unity but hopefully this guide is helpful. Also I will write a guide soon about how to install Unreal engine without compiling from source using containers. Spoiler alert: by using Epic Asset Manager [EAM](https://github.com/AchetaGames/Epic-Asset-Manager) which is far more simpler

You can use https://github.com/AchetaGames/Epic-Asset-Manager for assets and you can try installing engine that way (not sure how well it works, i compile UE from source)

I only really play single player, but I have run into this too. This is a great resource to keep track of progress - https://areweanticheatyet.com/

It varies by game. https://areweanticheatyet.com/ is an interesting resource for that because they also track announcements by developers about whether or not linux support is eventually planned.

AFAIK the games that don't work are more modern, competetive games that use Anticheat. https://areweanticheatyet.com/ is a good resource to see the status of your game.

It is game by game basis. Use this guide to see if the game you play is supported or not.

The only caveat to that is online games with anti-cheat. EAC and BattlEye both support Linux but requires studios to tick a box, many of which refuse. Any kernel-layer AC that doesn't have a userspace component will not run on Linux. Can see a list of games and their AC support here.

> except Multiplayer online games

That's no longer the case. I'd say about now, there are more multiplayer games that you can play, as opposed to ones you can't play.

See: https://areweanticheatyet.com/ as reference, but it's not very up-to-date, so https://www.protondb.com/ would probably be a better reference.

Only listed the 'bigger' ones, but you have a rather full list here if you want to check your favorite games: arwianticheatyet.com

Nope, just works. There are some games that use invasive kernel-level anticheat that wont work as Linux sensibly blocks anything that shouldn't be messing with the kernel, but I'm not personally interested in those games anyway. EAC and Battleye both support Linux, but requires devs to tick a box, which there's several that can't be bothered.
