  • Running the game on Linux
    1 project | /r/spaceengineers | 28 Oct 2021
    So I have the game on steam, and I've played it through the latest Proton (6.3-7). I went through a couple forums to seek solutions and I managed to get the game "working". -I've read some tips on protondb (I've installed dotnet and stuff trough winetricks, cause protontricks didn't work): https://www.protondb.com/app/244850 -I've tried the jar file from the LinuxPatches github site (and I've tried to make the changes manually): https://github.com/Linux74656/SpaceEngineersLinuxPatches

    This repo helped me get it running a while ago https://github.com/Linux74656/SpaceEngineersLinuxPatches
  • Space Engineers .NET out of date when running through Proton
    1 project | /r/linux_gaming | 17 Aug 2021
    I've tried almost every solution I can find on google (forcing certain .NET versions through protontricks/winetricks, running the SpaceEngineersLinuxPatches tool, forcing different versions of proton) but I can't get it working. I just get the same .NET is out of date error.

    He's probably talking about games that are not officially supported by Proton yet. Those gave me mixed results. Some games just work without a hitch. Some need minor bits and bops (a few launch options here, using GE proton there) and some require the sacrifice of a mechanical goat before they work (I'm looking at you, Space Engineers!)
  • Space Engineers .Net issue

    Downgrade your proton to an earlier version like 4. something, install the dotnet you need, then upgrade to the latest proton. It is a known issue with installing dotnet on newer proton versions. Check out protondb.com, if you have any problems running a game through proton, that site will most likely have the solution in the test results. One of the comments led me to this page which had the solution to your issue at the bottom of the page https://github.com/Linux74656/SpaceEngineersLinuxPatches

    You can play Space Engineers on linux. There is a patch which makes it work (for me it did). I do not play COD but you can search for it on protondb to see if people got it working.

    Space Engineers is playable(or was as of a few weeks ago), after applying https://github.com/Linux74656/SpaceEngineersLinuxPatches. It has been playable for a while now and was one of the games I missed too.

    You need to set up the wine prefix in a specific way. Use this: https://github.com/Linux74656/SpaceEngineersLinuxPatches
