wine-nine-standalone VS wine-discord-ipc-bridge

[!->] Native Direct3D 9 will be unavailable. For more information visit https://github.com/iXit/wine-nine-standalone [!->] err:d3d9nine:d3dadapter9_new Your display driver doesn't support native D3D9 adapters

It's still getting updates as of last month, so I'd say it is supported just not as frequently used as DXVK these days.

If you happen to be using a gallium driver galliumnine can be a more performant alternative to wined3d for dx9 titles. This has been beneficial for my old laptops with Sandybridge and Ivybridge graphics.

Looking into it further, I don't know if Gallium Nine would work with your Nvidia GPU, but it sounds like your CPU has integrated Intel HD 3000 graphics, which sound like they'll work with Gallium Nine Standalone. https://github.com/iXit/wine-nine-standalone

now for step two, for whatever reason winetricks mirrors are all down so i had to manually download latest gallium-nine, rename it to gallium-nine-standalone-.tar.gz and paste it on ~/.cache/winetricks/galliumnine/, very unnecessary but easier to use tbh.

One thing you could try is playing the Windows version with galliumnine (basically a native d3d9 implementation for gallium drivers). There's actually a way to get galliumnine working in standalone wine prefixes now rather than having to compile patched versions of wine. After you install both 32 bit and 64 bit libd3dadapter9-mesa libraries install this to the wine prefix. Unfortunately I don't have any terascale era hardware to try this with right now, but I can confirm it works pretty well with sandybridge graphics using crocus when I want to play WoW private servers on my laptop.

The fact that the deck runs on Linux only affects one tiny feature: the union terminal does not function. Joining the union requires Discord rich presence to recognize that you are in-game, and that does not function properly with Proton, which is the compatibility layer used to run the game. So, your friend could join the discord server, but won't be able to access any of the union features unless they try a work-around: https://github.com/0e4ef622/wine-discord-ipc-bridge This is such a minor feature though, that they don't need to worry about bothering with this unless they really, really want to. This will not affect your ability to play together, one way or the other.

https://github.com/0e4ef622/wine-discord-ipc-bridge You can try this and see if that takes care of the problem.

ive been trying to install wine discord ipc bridge for the past 2 days but the compiler thats needed to install it takes up more space than the var-a partition (/var directory) actually has, and i cant figure out how to resize it or free up space in it

For linux, you can use https://github.com/0e4ef622/wine-discord-ipc-bridge to access the union (thanks to neijr for this !)

This https://github.com/mellowagain/rpc-wine no longer works because Discord Rich Presence no longer uses discord-rpc.dll. And while https://github.com/0e4ef622/wine-discord-ipc-bridge works, it's annoying to have to go ALL the way to the .exe and start it for every single application I want to run; it only supports one at a time and closes itself when the application stops sending RPC. I can make it run along side Steam games fine to alleviate this annoyance, but for non-Steam games I am SOL because .desktop files only support a single system command, which can only contain one application at a time, but since I'd need to run two at a time to make it cleanly work with my non-Steam games, I would need to manually run it for any non-Steam game, making this .exe solution also not viable to CLEANLY solve this issue.

To enable Discord RPC, you'll need to download this "https://github.com/0e4ef622/wine-discord-ipc-bridge", Download "Source Code (zip)", and "winediscordicpbridge.exe".

I have a game that needs me to use PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 %command% -novid in order to work. However to get Rich Presence using this but if I try adding it before the launch argument with &&, the game won't launch. However I looked it up on Google and it told me that different arguments are separated by a space. This was apparently a lie, because no dice; simply having the path to the .sh file at the beginning with no && also did not work.

this worked for me https://github.com/0e4ef622/wine-discord-ipc-bridge
