  • hey, thats my video lol

  • Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/watch?v=55_TtnN7dnk

    Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

    I'm open-source, check me out at GitHub.

  • As soon as I got mods working for my favourite games I was done with windows for good. Took years to get a good mod set up working.

    • Most modloaders work by tricking the game into loading a dll file by giving the dll file the name of another dll file the game actually needs. (dsound.dll for example)
      But wine ignores these custom dll files by default because it has its own custom implementations of the libraries that use dll files with those names and prioritizes those.
      You can change settings with winecfg to make wine load the modloader dll files anyway, I don't remember exactly how to do this for a proton prefix, but it shouldn't be difficult

      • Depends on the game, cyberpunk for example needs vcrun2022, a d3d compiler DLL and a version library. Protontricks can do all of this pretty easily.

        Vortex and MO2 can be installed via steam tinker launch very easily these days.
