Wine dependency issues
Another question, I am using wine-tkg installed from nix-gaming. However, Lutris depends on and uses wine-staging. Is it possible to force Lutris to use wine-tkg instead?

Currently trying to switch from Windows to Linux and struggling hard. Should I stick with it?
I don't really play that much anymore nowadays, but I have the game installed from this Nix channel. If you know Nix or feel like figuring out how to it installed on your system (you can install Nix on any distro), you can try installing it from there :)

Is it possible to override the system Wine installation with a custom one?
There's wine-tkg in https://github.com/fufexan/nix-gaming. Using the same derivation for that, one could build GE from source the same way.

How i install heroic-games-launcher on NixOS 21.05?
Right now Heroic isn't packaged, but legendary is. nix-gaming takes advantage of that and creates a basic install/launch script + desktop entry for RL, for convenience. Feel free to try!

The only working fix for this at the moment is using GE-Wine 25 via Lutris.

Can Wine-GE play the ARR opening movie?
I have FF14 working with WINE-GE 8-21 on Arch Linux. The only issue seems to be with video playback from ARR. The openings for Heavensward thru Endwalker all play OK.

FSR is back with the latest GE Wine/Proton release: https://github.com/GloriousEggroll/proton-ge-custom/releases
This is big, at least for some of us. I honestly stopped at the last FSR enabled GE, which was around GE-Proton7-55, and planned to stay there for as long as possible. Don't know who Ph42oN is, but deserves tons of respect for make it again possible. Yes, gamescope was/is another way, but I very much prefer this one. https://github.com/GloriousEggroll/proton-ge-custom/releases/tag/GE-Proton8-7 https://github.com/GloriousEggroll/wine-ge-custom/releases/tag/GE-Proton8-11

Has anybody managed to get the 2006 abandonware game "You Are Empty" working on Linux through Wine?
I would try GloriousEgroll, I use their version of proton to help with a lot of games, I linked you to their WINE version.
