it's so fucking weird to cuz if you `winetricks directmusic dsound` the audio works correctly but now it has like a half-second delay in these games

Yeah, scrivener needs a directory deleted (texttospeech) and dotnet 4.6 installed (easily done with winetricks) forum.literatureandlatte.com/t/tutorial-r... SAPI installed won't work anymore because it's 32-bit, and Scrivener is 64-bit, unless there's a 64-bit version of SAPI.
Tutorial: Running Scrivener 3.1.5.1 under Linux w/Wine 64bit WITH activation
I originally posted this on my substack and linked it on Twitter/Bluesky/Reddit, and at the suggestion of @AmberV I am posting it here. I have been using Scrivener since the 1.x days, I’ve purchased ...

Question: how do you use AI to improve Linux compatibility? My first guess is that you use it to write winetricks packages on-demand, but that seems difficult.

I use Linux but I am not much of a power-user.

idk why I avoided lutris for so long but damn it's nice for someone who plays a lot of older games and hates setting up environments in winetricks per game lol

I've said it once, but I'll say it again. It's pretty amazing that a game can come out in early access and is playable day 1 on Linux out of the box with no tweaks or hours scouring the depths of reddit to manually edit winetricks and download missing fonts. What a time to be alive. Thanks Valve.

一度に1つのWinアプリしか起動しないのであれば、何かあったときには、Wineのプロセスをkillすればいいから、WineとWinetricks入れる方が簡単そう。

If you find that Lutris STILL isn't installing stuff, you're going to have to do it manually... Pull up a terminal and run winetricks yourself to install all the windows components:

WINEPREFIX=~/Games/ea-app winetricks

then install all the dotnet components etc.

also if you're running Winetricks/Protontricks and have no idea where all the storages are, they're in the mnt folder

had that problem when I wanted to mod a Steam game with a batch script that required being in the same folder as the game's exe and I couldn't find it anywhere in Protontricks

Whoop!! 🙌 I just set up my new TC Electronic Plethora X3 with the MS Windows editor app running on Linux Mint 🎸🎵😃
Runs under WINE with winetricks add-ons no problemo.

Please check https://www.protondb.com/ for gaming compatibility and the comments made there usually helps on how to set it up.

I recommend bottles, wineHQ + winetricks, or using proton itself (steam library that works even for nonsteam games) along with protontricks, i believe umulauncher[...]

Winetricks in multilib On first glance I don't see a compelling reason for it to be in there either. You could open an appropriate issue on the bug tracker.

like wdym you stopped supporting linux just before ur last major update (to scriv3) and i can only get it working with winetricks on my desktop, not my laptop
October 8, 2025 at 10:02 PM
I tried. There apparently wasn't an install script option for Avowed on BattleNet (aka the version you get with PC Game Pass).

I eventually got there, though, by installing Visual C++ Runtime 2015-202X on the BattleNet install with Winetricks.
October 7, 2025 at 11:01 PM
I was on the right track with Visual C++ through Winetricks. I just had to install the 2015 through 202X package, and not just the 2015-only.

Didn't have to touch any of the other settings from the Lutris BattleNet install script.
October 7, 2025 at 10:11 PM
I finally got Avowed running (after my 5th time downloading it)..

Had to nuke my Battle Net setup, and rebuild it from scratch. Then I had to use WineTricks to install the 2015+ Visual C++ Runtimes.
October 7, 2025 at 10:05 PM
I've never gotten Lutris to successfully run a game. Ever.

Add the Game Pass via BattleNet version of Avowed to the list...
