Did the upgrade to CEF-91 as part of 11.17 break the client for anyone else?

  • wine-lol

    Discontinued Patched wine-staging with fix needed to run League Of Legends (by yuiiio)

  • I've been using yuiiio's wine-lol fork (which updates wine to 5.18 and adds fsync support) and the client still works in low spec mode. I do, however, get terrible frame drops when games start which mostly subside after a minute or two.

  • wine-lol

    Patched wine-staging with fix needed to run League Of Legends (by polkaulfield)

  • Running into an issue where I run League with the new .deb packages from here: https://github.com/ekistece/wine-lol/releases/tag/Release installed and run the League start-helper script from here: https://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflinux/comments/j07yrg/starting_the_client_script/ but end up with a completely black Client. While not having any visuals sound works and I can even interact with the client and get into a custom game where League runs normally, but the client does not have any visuals. Not installed via Lutris but only through wine.

  • wine-lol-patched

    Discontinued Wine 6.15 Staging with extra patches to make it work with LoL

  • Here is a guide about reinstalling LoL from scratch. I'd recommend you to see Lutris' logs tho in case it has to be with something related to Lutris itself rather than the Wine prefix

  • leagueoflegends

    Discontinued League of Legends install and launch wrapper for Linux (by kyechou)

  • I've been using it for some weeks and after today's update it still runs the client + game fine. It's what i'm using with the leagueoflegends script: https://github.com/kyechou/leagueoflegends

  • wine-tkg-git

    The wine-tkg build systems, to create custom Wine and Proton builds

  • If anyone wants to try, you can grab the wine-tkg source tarball from https://github.com/Frogging-Family/wine-tkg-git/releases/tag/6.14.r6.g1bc4da9d and make the following changes to customization.cfg:

  • wine-staging

    Staging repository for Wine; mirror of https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine-staging - Bugtracker and Patches: https://bugs.winehq.org/

  • This one could be a candidate for fixing this (but I have not tried what happens if I don't apply this to a recent wine version): https://github.com/wine-staging/wine-staging/blob/534f6ae34e89615fa424ee3e3002b1b3d419a8ba/patches/winebuild-pe_syscall_thunks/0002-winebuild-Call-__wine_syscall_dispatcher-through-the.patch

  • wine-lol

    PKGBUILDs to package GloriousEggroll's LoL-patched wine version

  • That's why I created a solution, which allows to install the patched glibc separately, some years ago: https://github.com/M-Reimer/wine-lol. At first a patched glibc is built and installed to /opt/wine-lol on the system. Then a patched Wine is built with compile parameters to force it to link to this specially patched glibc version. This means that actually only wine-lol will use the patched glibc and only wine-lol itself can suffer if something is wrong with it.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • wine-ge-custom

    My custom build of wine, made to use with lutris. Built with lutris's buildbot.

  • lutris

    Lutris desktop client

  • Weird, I tried what you said, and the building your wine didn't work ( the process was kinda scuffed tho ) In reinstalling LoL and trying to follow your instructions, I found that reinstalling LoL with the first install script on lutris.net configured a different version of wine **lutris-ge-lol-6.16-x86_64**. It seems to work perfectly: I even have the practice tool running atm. Maybe if someone sees this, they might try just reinstalling LoL with stable installer on Lutris's site.
