I've always wanted to get final fantasy XI and XIV working on Linux. I had hit and miss attempts with XIV where install went smoothly but when launching the game, I'd get a blank screen. XI has been a major pain, lutris only does a partial install with only the main game files are installed. The remaining add-ons have be manually installed to complete the install. This is where I fubar the install. Skyrim ran perfectly for me via Steam play. Fallout 4 worked but audio was MIA which I never got around to finding a fix for. I put a 1700X in a Dr. Zabar's Sentry case and installed Antergos on that. My main PC is stuck on Windows 10 for the time being.

The
quick question, I know this was from a year ago, but I went through the guide and found that the game worked until I clicked -New- on the fallout 3 GOTY menu, this might be just fallout 3 GOTY's shenanigans but I want to know anyone found a fix for that? also I have looked at the protondb page for this, I tryed fixing the Xlive.dll problem, got it to work, and then after getting it working (on proton 3.16-9), I tryed to play but as the slide was scrolling the game stopped and crashed.
EDIT: I also noticed that it talked of windows features and their needing to be turned on or off, also I am on linux manjaro

My The Game that is keeping me from switching my main pc to Linux is RuneScape. Have been playing it since preschool and it's a second home to me. It's an mmorpg, not on Steam and so forth so I kinda doubt it'd work. There is some stuff about the old java client working on Linux but most stuff I find about it are from 2012. :/
If the new client did work however, I'd switch in an instant. (literally)

Thanks for this video! I just bought this game on Humble Bundle on sale. I didn't dig through any .ini files, but I got it working at least. When I was on Windows last time for gaming (during 2014, I think) that game, even with the .ini fixes, worked and bugged out every fifteen or so minutes. Need to be playing more of this so I know that won't happen :)

I recently moved over from Windows 10 to Manjaro Linux for the first time and I got to say I am in love with this OS it is so awesome. And one of the first things that really surprised me was just how well Fallout 3 works on Linux, I have been playing it for over a week now and not once have I had it crash on me!

The trick on Windows for this was some mod that lets you play fallout 3 using the new vegas engine. Any idea if you can get it running via that path? Seems better than digging up some games for windows live dll to patch fallout 3 to work.
And, as I recall, it would still crash about every 1-3 hours.

steam version is the worse version, don't think you can mod FO on linux very much which kinda defeats the purpose of playing those old games anywho. vanilla bugthesda games were never really playable in their original form without the modding community's fixes.

Hey Chris, could you maybe test BeamNG.drive in the next episode(s)? I want to see it because it's a CPU-heavy game (a lot of physics calculations) so I wonder how it would do with Proton, especially that recently they made it use a little less CPU
