I used to think I was a 5/10, but then I tried to pirate a game on SteamDeck and I felt like I lost a lot of braincells. Spend like 6 hours trying to fix things and I accidentally bugged the internal speakers.
I think I’m at 3/10, linux (SteamOS) is so fucking hard to use.
I might be the most technologically illiterate Lemmy user ever.
In case you didn’t figure it out (I don’t have a Deck, but Linux Desktop), exit Big Picture mode, install Heroic Launcher, click “add new game”, (optional: type in the name and set the image if you want), select that it’s a Windows version, (optional: select a specific Proton version in the dropdown), select the executable you downloaded, and you’re done.
If the download was an installer instead, do the same steps except before you select the executable click “run executable” or whatever it says first and run the imstaller, then select the executable that the installer creates (it’ll be in the prefix for the game, which should open when you click “select executable.”
I mean I think its the crack being intended for windows. Non RE4 cracked games do works, its just RE4’s crack is not working in linux.
Ah, OK. I haven’t tried that one. Possibly? I haven’t had an issue with any of them, but there’s always a chance it just doesn’t work through WINE.
