How to install Davinci?
novelWriter for books is like building a dungeon in D&D I might add. All it needs is a map editor ;)

What kind of applications are missing from the Linux ecosystem?
Novelwriter almost hits the sweet spot, but misses some features and is written in python, which makes some features hard to implement due to the nature of the programming language.

Looking for a 'Scrivener Light'
Alternatively, if you want Scrivener-like and are happy with open source projects, novelWriter scratches some of the same itch and is (a) free and (b) available on Linux, Windows, and macOS: it has a similar project-oriented interface to Scrivener, can export projects in HTML, Open Document, Markdown, Plain Text, or PDF, supports tagging and metadata, and uses Markdown for authoring. It's much less hot on importing foreign files (it's really an authoring tool) but is implemented in Python, uses XML/Json for internal files/metadata/configuration, and in use feels like an early version of Scrivener 1.x (which is really what your students want, but Lit'n'Latte discontinued it about a decade ago and you can no longer buy it).

MSWord is surprising to hear. I would've thought some specific tools like Vellum. There are free and open source tools as well, like https://novelwriter.io/

Looks like RF3s modding is just like RF5
Asset Studio for browsing and previewing files, Avalonia for replacing/editing bundles. Of course, I've never actually modded RF5; all I've managed to get working so far for RF3s is portrait and model texture editing, and face textures are so tightly cropped that replacing them might be a pain. As for dialogue, the extracted .txt comes out garbled, and I tried it with Grimoire just for fun but that doesn't seem to do anything.

Trying to find sprites from the games files, but I cant find them.
the sprites won't appear as actual images unless you are using something to load the sprites like AssetStudio or a similar program. unfortunately i can't remember the name of the program that allows you to take a screenshot and rip assets from there, or something similar. but AssetStudio will do the trick and you have to load the folder called "hollow_knight_Data" from - C:\(yournamehere)\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight\hollow_knight_Data - some of the information here will vary based on what you've named your drives but the main folder is in steamapps\common\HollowKnight\hollow_knight_Data

School of Dragons
I've tried exploring a few things with this but the only sound file I was able to find was the one that plays on the startup screen. I think I might have another lead with the files that steam displays but I'm doing my best and if worse comes to worst I will just try to get recordings of everything :]

What’s Left to Preserve for Priconne EN & Github Priconne Image Extractor
Hi, I'm the person who made priconne-image-extractor. If you're looking to decrypt .unity3d files from the EN server, you can use that to get all the .unity3d files from EN's CDN, and then use AssetStudio (https://github.com/Perfare/AssetStudio) to load the folder with all the .unity3d files. This won't work anymore for JP's server since they updated Unity a while ago, but in theory this should work for EN still.

Does Anyone have the SFX file of Video Game Club Skill?
You can dig the audio files yourself from the game data with Asset Studio. I can get it for you, but it'll have to wait until I get home. I advice you try to dig yourself. Might find many cool things in there.
