check this: https://github.com/derrod/legendary/wiki/Fallout-New-Vegas
you can access regedit using winecfg or winetricks (I'm not really sure)

Did you use the Wine prefix for the game when making the registry edit?
Something like
WINEPREFIX="/home/deck/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/Fallout New Vegas" wine regedit ...foreign-sapphireOP•2y ago
btw the game will pop up the window to play and go into options but when i click play the window closes and no i dont think i did
metropolitan-bronze•2y ago
Ariel is correct you should share logs as well, since the fix may not work because you're using Proton, or there is some other problem.

they are asking you to read the #:pushpin: Read Me First | Frequently Asked Questions and post game logs
fascinating-indigo•2y ago
the problem you are describing (click play and it closes) is what the link @Linguin shared fixed
an alternative you can do that is more user-friendly maybe:
- download the epic games launcher (the official one from their site)
- in heroic go to the game settings > Run Exe in Prefix
- select the epic installer and complete its installation inside the prefix (don't execute the app after install)
after that, the game should work (installing the launcher in the prefix does the regedit thing along with other things), you don't need to actually start the epic games launcher app or anything, just install it inside the game prefix using heroic's option

maybe an importable .reg file would simplify it
oh wait, it's on the wiki
.reg files can be imported via wine's regedit

optimistic-gold•2y ago
I don't understand. how does the arial font or Ubisoft Connect relate to Fallout?
eastern-cyan•2y ago
it's just the name of the PR
I didn't change the name yet to something that fits
and tbh what would I change it to anyway
refactor ubisoft connect setup?
optimistic-gold•2y ago
Fallout isn't an Ubisoft game though
that's what is confusing me
eastern-cyan•2y ago
yeah it's not even ubisoft connect setup anymore
I refactored it to legendary setup

optimistic-gold•2y ago
no one has talked about it since the day you asked the question. I'll close it if you would prefer
optimistic-gold•2y ago
it's clear you gave up on it when others had given you the answer, but it was too much for you
foreign-sapphireOP•2y ago

optimistic-gold•2y ago
that'll be kept in mind next time you ask for assistance
foreign-sapphireOP•2y ago

optimistic-gold•2y ago
no, but when you ask for help and refuse to provide more info or implement the answers provided, it frustrates everyone
so for now, I'll lock this thread because you indicated that you gave up
