hello fellow sailers , hope you’re having a nice day , a few months back i switched to arch linux because my computer has good ram but not that good gpu , but now i would like to play some og games like portal 2 , portal 1 , inscryption etc from fitgirl repacks and i have scoured through many guides but nothing just works , too complicated. can’t there be a simple guide with preferably images or something like that (like a website /blog maybe?) I would really appreciate that since many of my friends may like to join linux ship but they are pirates like me as well who wouldn’t be able to play games on linux. #Fitgirl-repacks,#Linux

If your download limits aren’t capped by your ISP, I’d probably just grab the original Steam files and Goldberg’s Steam emulator off cs dot rin dot ru slash forum and call it a day

If you want something to help you with the process, you might like to try using Lutris or Heroic Games Launcher. They allow you to install anything you want and set up wine prefixes automatically. Heroic Games uses Proton and all other versions of Wine. If you find that you prefer Lutris, you can get Proton to work in it (lots of instructions about it available on Lutris web site). Good luck! If you need help with linux, lemmy.zip has a great community called Linux Questions. They’re very friendly and helpful over there. I know first-hand because I asked a question and got great answers.

That game has a native linux version. So, maybe find a copy of that?

I assume you don’t have enough experience to use Arch. Install Mint or Ubuntu or maybe Fedora (not recommended) and use wine.

Consider that maybe it’s the repack’s bug then go to fitgirl’s game page and seek for any similar problem and solution in comments

I usually try different version of proton. The one I get most luck with is protonGE you can install it with ProtonUp-QT (from the store discovery)
