wine-tkg-git VS protontricks

NTSync still seems to outperform any userspace fsync implementation https://github.com/Frogging-Family/wine-tkg-git/issues/936#i...

See: https://github.com/Frogging-Family/wine-tkg-git/issues/936

The exact version that I'm using: https://github.com/Frogging-Family/wine-tkg-git/actions/runs/4806748824

Clone the wine tkg git repo: git clone https://github.com/Frogging-Family/wine-tkg-git

Can't use native bcrypt.dll however Valve's proton uses a patched version. Wine-tkg uses Valve's version, might want to give it a try.

Just played games on Linux for the first time. It's way easier than I originally thought since Proton is integrated into Steam client. Can even run non-Steam games through Steam client but had to use protontricks to add dependencies like Visual C++ redistributables.

We'll be needing Protontricks to install those packages into our Proton session of our game (each steam game has their own one). You can install it here https://github.com/Matoking/protontricks.

Try to run the mod manager in the game prefix by using protontricks.

ALSO if a mod has some kind of external dependency, like if it specifically mentions needing VisualC or .NET Runtime, Protontricks will be a lifesaver for installing these into Proton prefixes. Might not need it often, but could come in handy to know anyways.

I'm learning a bit more about Proton. You can install Protontricks and then run protontricks 824270 and it should install stuff for you.

You can try protontricks with protontricks 1730590 winhttp (1730590 is The Entropy Centre's Steam App ID, that I just looked up on protondb)

That might be a problem, you could try to install native d3dx9 and xact to the game's wine prefix using winetricks or protontricks. I'd try d3dx9 on it's own first.

But I suspect that you'd find it much easier and more convenient to just use protontricks for this.

install it in the game's proton instance with protontricks
