You can find a procedure using Lutris here
Worked great for me on a fitgirl repack.

I’ve installed a few through Litrus and they have just worked. This was on SteamDeck and Ubuntu desktop
- CHKMRK ( @CHKMRK@programming.dev ) English18•5 days ago
Never really had a problem with either FitGirl or DODI repacks in Lutris

This may not be the right place for a superficial rant, but: I never figured Lutris out. Installed it a couple of times in the past years and rage-deleted it after a week of fiddeling because NOTHING WORKED. Not GZDoom, no emulator, no windows game let alone the RDR2 repack. I don’t think I’m that dumb, but seriously, I need help. I love the idea of a gaming platform on Linux, but the time I already sank into this piece of software without accomplishing anything is depressing!

I feel this so hard. I managed to get Bottles to run most things but the few I struggled with I’m always told others got it to run with Lutris. Okay but how? Because everything I’ve tried with Lutris failed.

I also never figured out lutris. I gave up one day with rage and discovered bottles. Never looked back after that.

Just download jc141, they have both doom big collection and rdr2
- Teppichbrand ( @Teppichbrand@feddit.org ) English1•4 days ago
So here I go again, searching the web to find out what jc141 is. I go to Reddit, huge wall of text that says stuff like “Peazip is not recommended to extract zpaq”. So I go to GitHub, it links to GitLab, which tells me about Arch: stable, Distrobox, Debian: unstable. 10 minutes have passed and I still don’t know what jc141 is. This gives me PTSD, it’s Linux at it’s worst.
- Eyck_of_denesle ( @Eyck_of_denesle@lemmy.zip ) English2•4 days ago
Well it’s piracy. It’s supposed be like that. I can help you, just dm or reply here. Their gitlab has all necessary links to setup, torrent website link, rss if you need it, etc. I am free now for a few hours so feel free to ask.
Emulation in general requires a bit of learning an tinkering, it’s just how it is, rom emulator users, ps2, 3,gameboy etc they have it way worse than us. Now it’s just click and play in linux in most titles.
- prole ( @prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) English1•4 days ago
It kind of just seems like you aren’t very good at determining what’s important to read/click and what’s not.
Or maybe you’re just bad at doing searches?

If lutris make problem, launch with
lutris -d
in terminal for debug message.To test if system broken, try install linux native game (for example tuxkart). If that no work, maybe system has problem. If does work, finally accomplished one thing :)
If more problem, !linux_gaming@lemmy.ml or !linux_gaming@lemmy.world maybe helpful

Install them with Bottles or Lutris
- Biskii ( @Biskii@lemmy.dbzer0.com ) English17•5 days ago
I’m using my last month of Game Pass before switching to Linux. I just want to thank everybody here and Lemmy wide for being so friendly and helpful about all things Linux. You guys have taken out all the stress and worry from the transition
- Commiunism ( @Commiunism@beehaw.org ) English10•5 days ago
I personally use bottles via flatpak and flatseal to make the games not connect to the internet when it’s not needed just in case.
If you want native linux games, there are sites for that.
- ancoraunamoka ( @ancoraunamoka@lemmy.dbzer0.com ) English3•5 days ago
Ehm… which sites?
- Commiunism ( @Commiunism@beehaw.org ) English5•5 days ago
There’s torrminator for once, it has a section for linux cracks specifically. There’s also a large collection on the internet archive of native linux games that you’d have to find for yourself (to keep in line with the rules), but it shouldn’t be too difficult.

Not sure if this C is about the same thing, but there it is. Linux crack.

I install them on my Windows Desktop, copy the files, and run them with Proton
- Kairos ( @LodeMike@lemmy.today ) English8•5 days ago
Or just
wine
that bitch.- cmnybo ( @cmnybo@discuss.tchncs.de ) English6•5 days ago
That works 99% of the time. I’ve run across a couple that refuse to extract, so I had to run them in a VM and copy the files over.

Jc141 is nice if you are using a up to date distro.
- Fleppensteyn ( @Fleppensteijn@feddit.nl ) English3•5 days ago
Install the full Visual Studio runtime and try some different settings with winecfg. People recommend Lutris but for me it never made a difference
