You could probably put all that in the main message maybe.
Are you also on Steam Deck?
xenial-blackOPโข2y ago
No
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Oh
xenial-blackOPโข2y ago
I can't
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Oh okay nevermind then
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
install dotnet48 in the prefix using winetricks
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
and BAM

adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
you also have to use winecfg and change the drive from Z: to D:
ambitious-aquaโข2y ago
I am getting the selected path is not writeable ?
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
.
@Gusdel
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
I tried doing that and it says that the installer returned status 67 . Aborting
And the game is still not running
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
which wine version
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
I am not sure how to know that
I am using proton
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
yeah don't use proton
absent-sapphireโข2y ago

adverse-sapphireโข2y ago

protestant-coralโข2y ago
You said heroic

adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
Oh yeah you also have the same issue
You cant use proton
Have to use wine
protestant-coralโข2y ago
How
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
Once you switch to wine
You have install dotnet48 again
Install it with the wine manager
In the sidebar in heroic
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Which one
Latest?
extended-salmonโข2y ago
yes
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Ok
Um it said the minimum supported platform is windows 7
And it been saying i should use 32 bit prefix
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
What
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
yeah so I tried installing dotnet48 and it's just not happening
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
Could you post another log
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
I don't know what is the error
or how to show you
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Ok
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
Even with wine-ge
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
yes
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Which log?
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
The wine one
Not the heroic one
protestant-coralโข2y ago
So the game log?
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
Could you post a log as well
Yes
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Okay
ambitious-aquaโข2y ago
@OOOOOF123 i did change it D: still getting the same thing any advice ?
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
So there is no z: drive
And you made the d: drive point to / right?
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
So I don't know how but it jus fired up this time so thank you brother!!!
One more thing though
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
how do I assign more storage? @OOOOOF123

ambitious-aquaโข2y ago

adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
try making the D drive point to the folder that contains the game folder
you can either free up some storage
or move the game to a drive with more storage
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
No I have storage it just assigned it 7GB
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
wdym
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
I don't really know but I have more then 150GB of space on my sdd
it seems like heroic is only giving 7GB to ES
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
so your /home/$USER drive has 150 gb of storage?
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
huh that is weird, I had payday 2 with more then 100GB
protestant-coralโข2y ago
This is the new logs
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
No it's 500GB about 150 GB is free
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
you have to change the wine version from proton to wine-ge
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Okay how
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
go to the game settings
it's the first setting
strange why it doesn't work then
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
I don't know it precisely shows this
So do I just click install and see what happen? But I don't think that would work
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
you sure you have 150 gb of storage
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Okay do i add dotnet48 again or just launch the game?
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
yep
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
add it again
it's a different prefix now
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Ok
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
also 20 gb is a lie
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
Huh, I have 269 GB
Free
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
the download is 75 gb
xenial-blackOPโข2y ago
I'm trying too
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
damn, well I have the storage if it would just let it have it
protestant-coralโข2y ago
I got this notification when opening wine tricks
protestant-coralโข2y ago

adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
just click install
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Ok
xenial-blackOPโข2y ago
Install it
ambitious-aquaโข2y ago
@OOOOOF123 thank you so much for you help that worked pointing "D:" to /home/$User/Games/
just an fyi on my system the launcher didn't like wayland but works on x11
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
works fine on wayland for me
strange
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
I just clicked on install and it gives me this

protestant-coralโข2y ago
How do i get a 32 bit version
Prefix
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
you don't
just click ok
that's winetricks being stupid and outdated
protestant-coralโข2y ago
It says an error occured
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
do what Gusdel did
.
screenshot?
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
this thing?
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
yes
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
ah alright
protestant-coralโข2y ago
No screenshot available
Should i send game logs again
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
wait did the dotnet install fail?
protestant-coralโข2y ago
I think so
It did say error occured
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
that's pretty werid
nobody else had that in here
protestant-coralโข2y ago
What logs should i send
If any
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
the winetricks one
if you are able to send it
protestant-coralโข2y ago
I don't know how to get it
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
you are using flatpak version of heroic right?
from discover store?
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Yeah
Discover
Winetricks' log is in the main Heroic log, although it's hardly readable
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
that's dumb, we should probably fix that
protestant-coralโข2y ago
So i should send heroics log then?
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
yeah
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Ok
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
hey I can write my actual username instead of $User right?
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
yeah ofc
Indeed, shouldn't be too difficult to do actually. I'm in the process of getting a dev env setup on my Deck currently, after that is PR review timeโข๏ธ, and then I'll look into this
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
then it's still not working saying the same permission thing again

absent-sapphireโข2y ago
Yeah it is still not working, I tried restarting heroic still the same thing,
the path has been applied as per you said but it still says that permission thing
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
your prefix hasn't been generated yet
you have to run the game once
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Ok
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
also could you refresh your wine manager
and update to the latest one
seems like your latest one is a little old
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
Anything for me @OOOOOF123 ?!
protestant-coralโข2y ago

absent-sapphireโข2y ago
I got this too, I reran it
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
ok cool so the prefix has been created
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
and it worked
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
send a screenshot
of the install location
protestant-coralโข2y ago
So now what
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
do the winetricks thing again
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Ok
absent-sapphireโข2y ago

adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
you have to remove the \heroic part
and add it to the D: drive
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
how?
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
current_path/Heroic
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
that same path redirecting I did earlier?
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
yeah
just add /Heroic to the end
protestant-coralโข2y ago
How do i get wine version 5.18
xenial-blackOPโข2y ago
@OOOOOF123 Thank you so much it's working
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
you don't need to get it
that's the wine-ge build system being broken so it reports the wrong version
it was fixed recently
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Oh
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
so it will be /home/$User/Games/heroic?
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
yep
with captial H
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
alright
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Sure taking a bit to download dot48
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
Do I select the ElderScrolls...... part as well?
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
yeah it takes a while the first time especially
no
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
alright
xenial-blackOPโข2y ago
I have error
xenial-blackOPโข2y ago

absent-sapphireโข2y ago
it seems like it's working
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
just restart it
it works after that
lol
xenial-blackOPโข2y ago
nope again
protestant-coralโข2y ago
What do i want to do to this wine prefix
protestant-coralโข2y ago

absent-sapphireโข2y ago
I atleast got to this screen, can only be sure in the morning tomorrow if it works

absent-sapphireโข2y ago
Thanks a lot @OOOOOF123 !!!

absent-sapphireโข2y ago
how the hell did that ss get in there ๐
protestant-coralโข2y ago
What do i do now
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
install dll or component
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Ok
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
scroll down to dotnet48
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Do i want dotnet 40 too or no?
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
48
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Ok
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
48 installs 40 as well
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Well they both are checked
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
already?
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Yeah i guess
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
then just click ok
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Ok
It brought back up this
xenial-blackOPโข2y ago
I will try to install epicgames in lutris
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Do i select the same things?
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
Did you click allow
In your browser
It should work
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Why does it want me to sign in to epic games after clicking play?
ambitious-aquaโข2y ago
the epic launcher has a hard time remembering the password
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Oh
I have got into the game
But
When
Clicking install it says the selected installation path is not writable please update the permissions to the selected path
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
It's fixed in the next release of heroic
Just scroll up you will find the solution
xenial-blackOPโข2y ago
Yes
It isn't working
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
You are using wine-ge right?
Not staging
Staging doesn't work I think
xenial-blackOPโข2y ago
Yes, I use wine-ge
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
Yeah not sure then
xenial-blackOPโข2y ago
I will try install epicgames in prefix
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Can you tell me i Donghae know what im looking for
adverse-sapphireโข2y ago
Read this
You have to do it in winecfg
And it's /home/$USER/Games/Heroic
$USER is your username
On a steamdeck it's just steamdeck
protestant-coralโข2y ago
How do i know my username
xenial-blackOPโข2y ago
Not working
I will try install it again
whoami
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Where do i type that
Your favorite terminal emulator, e.g. Gnome Terminal, Konsole, XFCE Terminal, etc.

is it possible to have a wrap up of the requirements here?
itchy-amethystโข2y ago
Use latest wine-ge (don't use staging)
Install dotnet48 vie winetricks
Create disk D and target it to /home/Games/Heroic via winecfg
have gnutls + lib32-gnutls installed

just retested wine staging works fine

I'm still having some issues trying to launch the game, I have the latest wine ge, i have dotnet48, created a disk D and targeted it. but nothing will launch for me. How do I install gnutls and lib32?
I have been trying all day to get this game to launch but it's not working.

Which distribution of Linux do you have?
I install it with pacman, because I use Arch Linux
If you use Ubuntu or Debian you should use "apt"

that is normal, you must wait. Wine is finishing some things in background

any reason you are using lutrist wine

dont use proton, use wine and i recommend you using wine from heroic games

this is lutris wine with proton patches. most of the wine-ge variants mention proton in their name, even wine-ge itself

I tried it

I found error:

did you check your browser
games sometimes require you to associate your epic account with the game
by default this opens a web browser with the linking page

Any pages don't open. I authorized in Epic Games in all my browsers, but it still doesn't work
Are they some setting for this?
like-goldโข2y ago
there might be in winecfg some settings on what browser to send it to.. do you have a default browser set

it generally should use the default one
you can try

I myself lost power so i can't do much lol otherwise I'd be continuing on working to get the game going
But i do have a question, how can i tell what drive my sd card is?
generous-apricotโข2y ago
I finally got it working on steam deck by installing dotnet48 from winetricks. Dotnet48 might take a long time to install and if it suddenly begins sending you on a loop asking what would you like to do then just click cancel.
It runs using wine-GE-proton8-10 which I downloaded from the wine manager within Heroics Launcher. I was able to bypass the install size error by adding the installer as a non steam game outside of Heroics Launcher, then just moving it back into Home/Games/Heroic

fair-roseโข2y ago
Do you point it to the prefixes folder or the game one?
itchy-amethystโข2y ago
Only to Heroic folder
itchy-amethystโข2y ago

itchy-amethystโข2y ago

ambitious-aquaโข2y ago
Install now seems to be working for me after I pointed D: at the Heroic directory path. It has similar probrlems under steam which require arsing around with install directories or moving it after install
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Ill see if this will work for me
So question how'd you add it as a non steam game outside of Heroic launcher?
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
anyone got the game launcher downloading a huge ammount of files? System requeriments says only needs 70GB but took >100GB and didnt even finish downloading
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Did you get inside of the game when downloading?
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
the game itself no, its launcher, eso one
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Can you screenshot where?
That way i can let you know or not
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
didnt get a screenshot sadly. left me with 1gb free space for the whole partition so had to uninstall it (otherwise the laptop collapses).
gonna try again and see if can take a picture
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Let me ask if the launcher looks like this (pause for picture)
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
if you mean like this one yeah https://discord.com/channels/812703221789097985/1131634126970171392/1131655468008362026
without the dialog thing
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Yes
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
yah got there, left it downloading the game, came back and all my 100Gb of free space were gone
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Hmm i haven't got that far mine says this
protestant-coralโข2y ago

protestant-coralโข2y ago
Not enough storage available
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
got that issue as well, solved it by setting
~/Games/Heroic
as D: in winecfg and giving it rw perms
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Im trying to put it on my steam decks sd card
Heroic already has permissions to access this folder (as well as any external drives mounted at
/run/media/
)afraid-scarletโข2y ago
isnt mounted in
/mnt
?protestant-coralโข2y ago
Whats that?
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
if i remember, usually all usb drives and so are mounted in there
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Ill look
KDE (which is what you're using when in Desktop mode) mounts media in
/run/media
I believe other DEs also follow thisafraid-scarletโข2y ago
oh right nvm yeah mounts there in fedora as well so i was wrong
protestant-coralโข2y ago
So is this the correct path?
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
you mean sdcard one?
that the virtual one set by wine
protestant-coralโข2y ago
I noticed the path looks different compared to this one
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
thats because he, in wincfg, set D: to
/
you want set D: in Games/Heroic
well, /home/${USER}/Games/Heroic
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Ok
Ill see what i can do
afraid-scarletโข2y ago

afraid-scarletโข2y ago
ofc, change the
${USER}
thing with your actual usernameprotestant-coralโข2y ago
Whats Y and Z for?
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
Z: is set by default, i assume to allow wine to access the whole filesystem(?)
for Y: no clue gonna check
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Oh i think i might of removed them
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
dont
checked, is where heroic flatpak is mounted
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Because i only have C and D
You'll definitely need Z:
protestant-coralโข2y ago
How do i get Z
Otherwise the game won't know where its files are
Simply add it with the button below
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Yeah but what do i set it as
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
/
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Ok
I think it might work now
Nvm
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
XD
you removed Y: as well right?
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Yes
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
ok give me a sec if i can see where is my Y: pointing at
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Ok
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
/home/zeglius/.var/app/com.heroicgameslauncher.hgl/cache/winetricks
change my user with yours and should workprotestant-coralโข2y ago
Okay
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
and if not likely you would have to remove the whole prefix and create it again
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Ok
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
and start again installing dotnet48 and D: and yadayada
protestant-coralโข2y ago
How do i update the perms to the selected path
protestant-coralโข2y ago

afraid-scarletโข2y ago
you set D: to /home/whateveruser/Games/Heroic?
protestant-coralโข2y ago
No
I set it to media/run or something
Trying to get the sd card to work
run/media
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
then ptobably the game is still in ~/Games/Heroic mm
protestant-coralโข2y ago
So what do i do?
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
i thing this lets you move the game folder

protestant-coralโข2y ago
And where should i move it to
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
to
/run/media/whateverusername/whateveriscalledthesdcard
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Ok
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
thought not sure depends of the file picker dialog
protestant-coralโข2y ago
And what should i make D?
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
same path
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Ok
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
with same i mean the /run/media/whateverusername/whateveriscalledthesdcard to clarify
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Ok
Yay that worked now time to download and let you know the results
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
nice
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Not sure if its fully downloaded but i got to this part of the game
protestant-coralโข2y ago

afraid-scarletโข2y ago
ya the launcher
protestant-coralโข2y ago
So what now?
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
now click there where says The Elder Scroll Online

afraid-scarletโข2y ago
and this appears

protestant-coralโข2y ago
Oh
Oof
protestant-coralโข2y ago

afraid-scarletโข2y ago
o
ok probably are the perms in flatseal
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Thats when i clicked install
Wym?
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
wait nevermind, these are set by default
how much space has that sdcard?
protestant-coralโข2y ago
I thought 38GB
afraid-scarletโข2y ago

afraid-scarletโข2y ago
:husk:
protestant-coralโข2y ago
So what do i need?
Do i need to delete a game?
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
a bigger sd card
if there are other games installed in the sdcard, try uninstalling them
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Ok
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
the sdcard is a 128gb one right?
ambitious-aquaโข2y ago
You need about 120GB for ESO - it's enormous
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
i think even more
had 140GB free space and that thing ate all that
just to download
ambitious-aquaโข2y ago
It's 98GB once installed (at this point) - it grows a few GB eevery new DLC 8)
protestant-coralโข2y ago
I have a 512 or something
It looks like it currently is downloading
How long would it take to download
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
depends of your internet, if its that much prolly a few hours
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Well it just finally reached 1%
I guess when its done downloading i will let you know the outcome
What did you say yours did when you downloaded it @Zeglius
It says download stalled
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
Warning, you only have 1 GB space left, aborting... of sorts xD
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Oof
I wonder why it stalled
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
mind to send a screenshot? i dont think that happened t me
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Sure
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Best picture i could get atm

protestant-coralโข2y ago
It has 0.0kb/s
It now says webget request failed where it said download stalled
I don't know what to do here
Oh its downloading again
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
maybe is just the launcher that is a bit bugged
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Maybe i don't know
But i feel this will take awhile
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
yeh better leave it plugged to the wall for a few hours
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Definitely
I think its slowly lowering the mb/s
And raising it back up again
I wonder if i should keep a eye on the game to see how it's doing with downloading.
I removed Hogwarts Legacy for this game so hopefully it works and is a fun game.
Oof i guess it takes 61GBs
Thats almost as big as Hogwarts Legacy i think
It stopped again
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
Takes way more
95 gb
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Way more what
Oh
Is there more then this download?
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
No clue, I suppose that's the whole base game without dlcs
protestant-coralโข2y ago
How come it says WebGet request failed again?
I guess maybe when it does that i will have to pause and unpause it
Oof the pausing and resuming doesnt seem to work
Im only at 6%
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
It seems the launcher somewhat is a mess. So yeah
Mine is still 2%. Ramps up then freezes and back to 0.0MB/s
Over and over
ambitious-aquaโข2y ago
it'll pause when downloading but not when patching. They seem to be getting clobbered by this free deal - the game start areas are full of confused newbies in novice gear
protestant-coralโข2y ago
It sucks i went outside and it only made it to 7%
I went outside and picked stuff up i thought it would of been further along from when i was in here
I did yard work
Hey we could all team up once we all are able to play
rising-crimsonโข2y ago
I used these steps to get to the installer:
1. Use Wine-GE (I used latest)
2. Install .NET 48 using WINETRICKS (it will complain about wine64, you can ignore them)
3. Ensure "Auto Install/Update DXVK"/"VKD3D" are both enabled
4. Launch the game and make sure to accept the prompt that should open up in your web browser the first time
however, I'm getting an "insufficient disk space" error (this is not the case)

protestant-coralโข2y ago
I now have to go through 81GB for it to apply a patch
Are you on steam deck?
rising-crimsonโข2y ago
no
flatpak runtime, so it shouldn't matter though
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Oh do you have another drive that has more GBs?
rising-crimsonโข2y ago
I have 600 GBs available
on the drive that's installed it
*in
it's not possible for it to see/access other drives in my system
protestant-coralโข2y ago
So 600 altogether or with games downloaded?
rising-crimsonโข2y ago
600 gigs of free space
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Ok
Idk then is that a different drive from the main or is it the main?
rising-crimsonโข2y ago
shouldn't matter- it's in a sandboxed environment
but I have it on my boot drive
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Make sure the games winecfg path and game path both go to the same place
At least that was what i did
like-goldโข2y ago
Did you do the step to add the d (or z I forget which, but its earlier in the thread) mount point, pointing to your game install dir
rising-crimsonโข2y ago
no
how do I add that?
like-goldโข2y ago
Wincfg
rising-crimsonโข2y ago
ah ok
rising-crimsonโข2y ago
it looks like Z:/ was already added, so I added D:/
ambitious-aquaโข2y ago
It's something weird about how it interacts with wine and sizes disks
rising-crimsonโข2y ago
seems to be installing now
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Prepare to wait ages like im currently doing lol
ambitious-aquaโข2y ago
other wine weirdness is that you sometimes get video stuttering unless you close the launcher window after you launch the game proper
(again same with steam)
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Im only on 18%
The first 61gb is a lie
There will be 81 more
rising-crimsonโข2y ago
bethesda's cdn servers are indeed painfully slow
ambitious-aquaโข2y ago
they are not normally this bad - the game itself was having 8 minute login queues as well on the EU server and full of new people so I think it's been a bit successful 8)
protestant-coralโข2y ago
What about downloading?
ambitious-aquaโข2y ago
that does seem to have gone to crap too
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Yeah my steam deck is really warm atm
I just wonder if i exit the game would i have to start over with downloading
ambitious-aquaโข2y ago
On updates it does the right thing, on install I've never tested
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Right thing?
ambitious-aquaโข2y ago
it does a verifying churn for a couple of minutes then picks up where it left off
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Oh
And your not sure about install?
ambitious-aquaโข2y ago
Nope.. I don't install from scratch very often!
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Then how do you get the game
ambitious-aquaโข2y ago
well I've installed it a few times but never interrupted during the install
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Oh
sensitive-blueโข2y ago
Hi All, I installed Wine-GE (latest), installed .NET 48 with WINETRICKS, ensured DXVK & VKD3D are enabled, and launched the game like @exx did above. My web browser opened and I attempted to allow the prompt. It then gave me an error message that I could not log in and should try later. The web browser prompt no longer appears. I uninstalled everything and retried to no avail.
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Im finally at 20%
How about anyone else
sensitive-blueโข2y ago
Can't get past the InstallAnywhere pop-up.
protestant-coralโข2y ago
My game finally finished installing and i now realized i lost a classmate from when i was in school which is shocking to me
Anyone know why it says my email is in a invalid format on elder scrolls when creating an account?
I got in now
I don't understand why it said it was uninstalled when trying to play from my steam library but when playing through Heroic Launcher it seems to work
xenial-blackโข2y ago
hey im instaling net48, but it takes really long time

using wine-ge-latest
like-goldโข2y ago
wait for dotnet48 to finish instlaling
xenial-blackโข2y ago
ok so its supposed to take really long time?
yday i let it run for like few hours
and it didnt finish
ambitious-aquaโข2y ago
shouldnt take that long, although you have to keep hittting ok to the dialogue boxes
xenial-blackโข2y ago
i get no dialogue boxes
altho i do have downloaded the TESO without using EGS just fine
xenial-blackโข2y ago
however when i try to launch it via EGS i get

xenial-blackโข2y ago
and same with heroic
and winecfg doesnt start
ambitious-aquaโข2y ago
it does that if you use the proton not the wine-ge-xx - dunno about latest though
xenial-blackโข2y ago

ambitious-aquaโข2y ago
I'm using 8-12
xenial-blackโข2y ago
ok imma try 8-12

winetricks is kind of a weird program that doesnt really have sensical UI imo. What happened when you tried to install dotnet48?
xenial-blackโข2y ago
What happened when you tried to install dotnet48?it would stop at this

xenial-blackโข2y ago
ok imma just try re download its entirety with heroic
should i install mono?
xenial-blackโข2y ago

xenial-blackโข2y ago
it would also take a long time to install it
like-goldโข2y ago
yes
so really, what winetricks does and a few other wine tools, is they download those things from microsoft itself.. so if your connection to ms servers is slow i could see the download taking a big

passive-yellowโข2y ago
Hey, I also get problems trying to run ESO... (already installed dotnet and changed Z drive to D)
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
finally :D

afraid-scarletโข2y ago
you cant change Z to D, otherwise simply wont work, you need to add D: pointing to
/home/whateveruser/Games/Heroic
if you are using the default instalation path and leave Z: to /
exotic-emeraldโข2y ago
so TLDR:
1) install dotnet48 using winetricks -> select default prefix -> install a windows DLL or component
2) setting D: to wherever you wanna install ESO to by clicking on winecfg in game settings -> drives -> add then selecting a letter (defaults to D:) and pointing this to where you wanna install ESO by clicking browse near the bottom
Don't change Z: since that breaks other stuff, just add another drive letter
That should summarise install instructions
Oh yeah use the latest wine-ge to get the latest wine fixes for the ESO launcher
protestant-coralโข2y ago
@Zeglius did you ever get yours working?
Also how can i save more steam deck battery life if possible because battery dies quick on this game
afraid-scarletโข2y ago
Without issue
As for the battery I have no clue I don't have a steam deck myself
wise-whiteโข2y ago
I was playing yesterday just fine but today after updating Heroic games launcher, the game wont start. Anyone have the same problem?
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
Yep same for me if I click on play it just says shutting down and closes
@Lucifer Morningstar hey did u manage to get it running?
protestant-coralโข2y ago
I got it running on my steam deck yes
Just battery dies quickly like an hour I think
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
Mine installed successfully but when I click play it just shutdowns
U got any fixes for that?
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Like you press play and then it says playing and then it stops to where you have to press play again?
On heroic launcher
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
Nope I press play screen goes black and it says shutting down
protestant-coralโข2y ago
On steam deck?
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
Nope the eso launcher

Oh i haven't experienced that

I got eso launcher working, than I installed the full game successfully and when I click play it shuts down
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Are you playing on the deck?
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
Nope but I use an arch based system so it should more or less be the same right?
protestant-coralโข2y ago
I am unsure honestly
Are you on macc?
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
Nope laptop is Asus
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Or have you updated the heroic launcher
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
Yep to the latest version 2.9.0
protestant-coralโข2y ago
To its current update because if so that may be part of it possibly
But unsure
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
Hmm I'll try installing an older version then
protestant-coralโข2y ago
Ok

Enable a wrapper on game settings such as mangohud or gamemode (note you have to have these installed separately) or downgrade to heroic 2.8
@xXOverHaulXx the above for you too
absent-sapphireโข2y ago
I turned on game mode it the others section on the settings page of ESO but it still doesn't work
like-goldโข2y ago
you have to have feral gamemode for that to work

yeah heroic itself shouldnt be run with it.. just enabling the option in the game is fine, heroic will add the wrapper when launching the game

I am running the latest wine, running game mode, installed dot net48 using wine tricks, changed the drive to a new d drive pointing to the location /home/username/Games/Heroic
And also installed the latest heroic launcher, but also tried with the older version still getting the same error
I also tried if proton works but nope
Oh and one more thing when I was installing dotnet48 it said that it works mostly on 32 bit and that I am using a 64bit could that be the problem?

Nah, is just winetricks showing old warnings

Ah ok ๐
When I ran the log file through bard I got this message Idk what it means though ๐ "The game log you provided shows that there are a number of errors that were encountered when launching the game. These errors are related to the Wine compatibility layer that is being used to run the game on Linux.
The most common error is the wine:err:wineboot:process_run_key Error running cmd L"C:\windows\system32\winemenubuilder.exe -a -r" (126). This error is caused by the wineboot utility not being able to run the winemenubuilder.exe application. This can be due to a number of reasons, such as the application not being installed or the wineboot utility not being configured correctly.
Another common error is the wine:err:hid:udev_bus_init UDEV monitor creation failed. This error is caused by the udev library not being able to create a monitor for the HID devices. This can be due to a number of reasons, such as the udev library not being installed or the device not being properly configured.
The remaining errors in the game log are all related to the RtlGetCurrentProcessorNumberEx function. This function is used to get the current processor number, but it is not implemented in the Wine compatibility layer. This means that the game will not be able to determine the current processor number, which can cause a number of problems.
In order to fix the errors in the game log, you will need to install the winemenubuilder.exe application and configure the wineboot utility correctly. You will also need to install the udev library and configure the device correctly.
If you are still having problems after following these steps, you can try using a different Wine compatibility layer, such as Proton. Proton is a newer Wine compatibility layer that is specifically designed for gaming. It is possible that Proton will be able to run the game without any errors."

Hello! Did anyone amnage to figure out how to get past the "token error"? I installed ESO with Wine-GE-latest, donet48, and it installs and runs the launcher just fine (after creating D: drive with winetricks), but i can't get past that token error message. No matter how many times i restart it, it's not working.
And it used to work, before i reinstalled my system, i only got that error once, then it worked. Now i can't get past it.
Here's my thread about it with the logs. I use nvidia, arch, xfce4. Not sure what to do.
https://discord.com/channels/812703221789097985/1152760683126075413
Nevermind. I was missing lib32-gnutls package. After i installed it, it ran immediately! ๐ It's installing now, i think it'll work as before.
Thanks for this thread! ๐
