hmm should have worked what runner do u use crossover? wine crossover?

genetic-orange•2y ago

complex-teal•2y ago

genetic-orange•2y ago

complex-teal•2y ago

rocket league needs to be running you need to have ran rocket league at least once

genetic-orange•2y ago

ive run it before

complex-teal•2y ago

how without a runner u cant

genetic-orange•2y ago

dont know just tried opening it through heroic and it worked

complex-teal•2y ago

you must have one installed then go to top of rl settings and send ss

genetic-orange•2y ago

in heroic?

complex-teal•2y ago

genetic-orange•2y ago

wine crossover 22.1.1 dont remember installing it

complex-teal•2y ago

genetic-orange•2y ago

complex-teal•2y ago

@CommandMC any clue why this wouldnt work? does run exe on prefix not work on macos? @Elbow stan can u send heroic logs>?

genetic-orange•2y ago

wheres that sorry

complex-teal•2y ago

genetic-orange•2y ago

new to all this

complex-teal•2y ago

settings > logs in sidebar i think copy to clipboard and send here or show in folder and drag and drop

genetic-orange•2y ago

message.txt

complex-teal•2y ago

can you nuke your prefix then launch rl and then try again?

genetic-orange•2y ago

sorry how i do that

wise-white•2y ago

delete the folder listed in the prefix section of the game's settings or, more safely, rename it to something else so you still have a backup copy. i don't recommend this, though.

complex-teal•2y ago

yeah just delete /homeElbowstan/Wine/Prefixes/rocket-league

genetic-orange•2y ago

theres nothing there now and now rl wont open

complex-teal•2y ago

did you delete the folder or the contents?

genetic-orange•2y ago

just the text there 💀

complex-teal•2y ago

waht

genetic-orange•2y ago

i dont know what im doing

wise-white•2y ago

/home/Elbowstan/Wine/Prefixes/rocket-league

genetic-orange•2y ago

in heroic where it says that

complex-teal•2y ago

its a folder

genetic-orange•2y ago

in heroic or finder?

wise-white•2y ago

finder oh, you deleted the text in the prefix box

genetic-orange•2y ago

yeah

wise-white•2y ago

put that text back and delete the folder itself

genetic-orange•2y ago

right

wise-white•2y ago

(don't feel too bad being new, just do your best to communicate well. we all gotta be new sometime)

genetic-orange•2y ago

i cant find it wait think i got it so do i delete the rocket leeague folder or prefixes one

wise-white•2y ago

just the rocket league one

genetic-orange•2y ago

so that?

wise-white•2y ago

yes, correct

complex-teal•2y ago

yeah delete that wait why does that say default at the top

genetic-orange•2y ago

rl wont open now

wise-white•2y ago

i've seen that a lot, it doesn't tend to matter. some people leave the "default" did you re-populate the prefix box inside of the game settings?

genetic-orange•2y ago

yeah

wise-white•2y ago

post a screenshot of that?

genetic-orange•2y ago

wasnt elbow before, was this but u guys are nice enough so +it was in the logs bit

wise-white•2y ago

when you tried launching the game this time did it create the folder listed there?

genetic-orange•2y ago

tried putting the folder back and still wont open dunno what ive done

wise-white•2y ago

when you say "tried putting the folder back" do you mean that you created it yourself?

genetic-orange•2y ago

no moved back from bin

wise-white•2y ago

moved which folder back from bin?

genetic-orange•2y ago

rocket league just to see if it would open

wise-white•2y ago

okay, but does the folder in the most recent screenshot exist or not?

genetic-orange•2y ago

yeah issue might be something else at this point

wise-white•2y ago

what's the creation time on it? maybe not is it very very recent?

genetic-orange•2y ago

yeah

wise-white•2y ago

okay, good. post the last play log?

genetic-orange•2y ago

10 mins ago wheres that?

wise-white•2y ago

under game issue https://discord.com/channels/812703221789097985/1044301598018515105/1044301598018515105

complex-teal•2y ago

redelete it tho then send the game log

ratty-blush•2y ago

There's a guide for Linux and steam deck on Reddit

complex-teal•2y ago

oh cool

genetic-orange•2y ago

yeah im mac didnt realise

complex-teal•2y ago

he cant get run exe on prefix to work tho

ratty-blush•2y ago

Steps should be same for mac as well That's a problem

complex-teal•2y ago

i know i told them to nuke their prefix cause i saw some stuff in logs but now RL wont launch

wise-white•2y ago

hence the last play log 😎

genetic-orange•2y ago

this? or u want the fine itself

wise-white•2y ago

drag and drop the file into discord

genetic-orange•2y ago

Sugar-lastPlay.log

complex-teal•2y ago

weird did you delete the prefixes folder maybe

genetic-orange•2y ago

dont think so just rocket league inside it

complex-teal•2y ago

might be heroic bug then

wise-white•2y ago

so this folder exists?

/home/benpurling/Wine/Prefixes/

genetic-orange•2y ago

yeah

wise-white•2y ago

wait, does heroic have permissions to write to the wine folder? idk how it is on mac

complex-teal•2y ago

i think so? its in the user folder

genetic-orange•2y ago

dont know

wise-white•2y ago

i remember that being a sticking point for me on linux, heroic can't write to the .wine folder even though it's in the user folder

complex-teal•2y ago

thats not normal

genetic-orange•2y ago

i mean rl was booting fine 20 mins ago idk what i changed

wise-white•2y ago

yeah, looks like that's not the issue. my bad

genetic-orange•2y ago

np it worth re-installing?

wise-white•2y ago

you could try the verify option first

genetic-orange•2y ago

whats that

wise-white•2y ago

in the game's menu, sandwich menu, verify and repair

genetic-orange•2y ago

what game rl in heroic?

wise-white•2y ago

yeah

genetic-orange•2y ago

cant seem to find it found it says its repairing

wise-white•2y ago

okay, sick. wait for that to be done, delete the folder for the prefix one more time, and then try to run it again

genetic-orange•2y ago

stopped saying repairing and still wont boot

wise-white•2y ago

did you delete that folder for the prefix? the rocket league one

genetic-orange•2y ago

the repair didnt replace the folder

wise-white•2y ago

does that mean that it's not there?

genetic-orange•2y ago

think so

wise-white•2y ago

okay, drag the last play log into the chat again

genetic-orange•2y ago

Sugar-lastPlay.log

wise-white•2y ago

/home/benpurling/Wine/Prefixes/rocket-league

This folder does not exist, correct?

genetic-orange•2y ago

idk why dont think i deleted it

wise-white•2y ago

it's fine if it doesn't, i am only double checking that it doesn't if you create that folder with this command on the command line, are you able to?

mkdir /home/benpurling/Wine/Prefixes/rocket-league

genetic-orange•2y ago

in terminal?

complex-teal•2y ago

yeah

genetic-orange•2y ago

says No such file or directory

ratty-blush•2y ago

Huh

wise-white•2y ago

can you send a screenshot of the output?

genetic-orange•2y ago

with the mkdir bit

complex-teal•2y ago

@Elbow stan ls /home/benpurling/Wine/Prefixes/ send output of that

genetic-orange•2y ago

wise-white•2y ago

ls /home/benpurling/Wine/

and this?

genetic-orange•2y ago

same thing

complex-teal•2y ago

ls /home/benpurling

wise-white•2y ago

something has to exist lol

genetic-orange•2y ago

still nothing lmao

wise-white•2y ago

literally what???

complex-teal•2y ago

wise-white•2y ago

send a screenshot of that last command

complex-teal•2y ago

macos doesnt use /home idk whats going on here

genetic-orange•2y ago

complex-teal•2y ago

idk where u got that from

wise-white•2y ago

it's very hard not to get angry at mac "we're unix based now" "we don't use /home/" ignorance

complex-teal•2y ago

no like weird things were in logs too

wise-white•2y ago

@Elbow stan type this

pwd

in the terminal

genetic-orange•2y ago

/Users/benpurling response

wise-white•2y ago

/Users/benpurling/Wine/Prefixes/rocket-league

put this in your prefix box and see if it works

genetic-orange•2y ago

zsh: no such file or directory: /Users/benpurling/Wine/Prefixes/rocket-league

wise-white•2y ago

no, in heroic put that in the prefix section

genetic-orange•2y ago

oh that was there already

wise-white•2y ago

no, it was /home/ before

genetic-orange•2y ago

fml it worked

wise-white•2y ago

now try running it okay, great

genetic-orange•2y ago

💀

wise-white•2y ago

did the mod load?

genetic-orange•2y ago

lemme see

genetic-orange•2y ago

wise-white•2y ago

wise-white•2y ago

not sure, the reddit ones say they are out of date

genetic-orange•2y ago

thanks might be a bit too much linux even if i could understand it ill try again tomorrow thanks for ur help gn

wise-white•2y ago

good luck man

genetic-orange•2y ago

@RawToast got it to open (wine was trying to load in windows 7-changed to windows 10 now) but now says bakkes version is out of date (I’ve tried re-installing) dw now tho, going to bed :))

ratty-blush•2y ago

Yeah I made it that far as well The reddit guide tells you how to fix it

genetic-orange•2y ago

Is it the github link that toast sent?

ratty-blush•2y ago

well GitHub isn't reddit (so no it isint)

genetic-orange•2y ago

Could u send the Reddit link pls Wondered if it might be similar

ratty-blush•2y ago

idk where it is I'm on mobile Can't really give it to you Give it a google search I guess

genetic-orange•2y ago

Ok ty Like “bakkes update error Reddit”? I think I gotta whitelist it Dunno where I’d find that I’ll look in the morning @RawToast any idea how I’d whitelist bakkes mod?

genetic-orange•2y ago

Tried that and it didn’t work

genetic-orange•2y ago

Bit of a guess tho @OOOOOF123 don’t suppose you can remember how you got round the out of date issue

wise-white•2y ago

I really don't know, sorry

complex-teal•2y ago

Click winecfg box there @Elbow stan Look for a windows version setting Change to 10 (This isn't usually needed on Linux because wine-ge auto does it)

genetic-orange•2y ago

Did that and that got it to open Now it keeps saying it needs an update Tried re-installing

complex-teal•2y ago

yeah thats normal thats the next part you need to turn off safe mode this isnt needed

wise-white•2y ago

Makes sense

complex-teal•2y ago

this is in the options of bakkesmod when you launch it

genetic-orange•2y ago

Ok, stopped saying update required, but now I can’t seem to open both at the same time Also Is there a way to install the download rather than keep running the .exe every time?

complex-teal•2y ago

That's the next part If u so it bakkesmod will also auto start when running rocket league

genetic-orange•2y ago

Right

complex-teal•2y ago

You need to create a .bat script, and set that as the alternative exe in heroic settings for rl And make that .bat file launch both RL and bakkesmod In my original thread there's a .bat there

genetic-orange•2y ago

I’ll try find it Ty

complex-teal•2y ago

👍 U will have to change the paths in the bat file to ur install

genetic-orange•2y ago

complex-teal•2y ago

Yeah, anywhere

genetic-orange•2y ago

Going to bed now, I’ll have another try tomorrow Thanks tho i think i need to change some things in the file to get it to work on mac, could u help?

complex-teal•2y ago

You should be able to just cha he the file paths

genetic-orange•2y ago

Yeah I don’t really know how to do that Don’t know if I need the “Z:” either

genetic-orange•2y ago

@QuadRadical (Ping on reply)

genetic-orange•2y ago

im not sure if i need the win64 thing there either

CommandMC•2y ago

- Don't edit the file as rich text. "Format" -> "Make Plain Text" (assuming you're using TextEdit; I don't use macOS) - Line 3 should contain the path to your game's install path, not to the Wineprefix - Z: points to your local filesystem, meaning the path should start with something like Z:\Users\ - Make sure to always use backslashes (\) as path separators

genetic-orange•2y ago

how would i see my games install path?

complex-teal•2y ago

its in game settings in heroic iirc if not its in game logs

CommandMC•2y ago

Click the game's cover in your library, click "Installed Information"

genetic-orange•2y ago

thanks do i need the bit with the win64 etc at the end?

genetic-orange•2y ago

rl_launch.bat

genetic-orange•2y ago

is that all good? rl still not opening

CommandMC•2y ago

Don't edit the file as rich text

genetic-orange•2y ago

Idk how to format and make it plain text

CommandMC•2y ago

The "Format" option is in the menubar (at the top-left of the screen)

CommandMC•2y ago

Hope that's somewhat legible, screenshotting a VM through an AnyDesk window

genetic-orange•2y ago

@CommandMC thanks, bakkes now opens. but rl still doesnt, any thoughts?

CommandMC•2y ago

Could you send in your file again?

genetic-orange•2y ago

rl_launch.bat

CommandMC•2y ago

Add a \ between the Z: and Users

genetic-orange•2y ago

Same thing Bakkes mod opening but not rl

genetic-orange•2y ago

rl_launch.bat

complex-teal•2y ago

Hmm

genetic-orange•2y ago

message.txt

genetic-orange•2y ago

any ideas?

CommandMC•2y ago

Path not found.

Huh

genetic-orange•2y ago

yeah but i dont think i changed anything from when i used to load up without bakkes would the pathing in here need to be different for mac?

complex-teal•2y ago

You would of course change it to where RL is installed

genetic-orange•2y ago

Which part tho The %PATH%? Or the other bit (I can’t see I’m on mobile rn)

complex-teal•2y ago

The RL_PATH @Elbow stan did you resolve this?

genetic-orange•2y ago

Haven’t yet, not been on in a while but game says it needs an update. However when I press “force update if available” nothing happens So I gotta update it before I fix the pathing
