Try installing d3d9_47 I think it is? d3dx9_43
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
did both of those also using wine-ge-proton 7-13 newer doesnt work read on the compatablity page that 6-3 versions work (but heroic doesnt have those)
wee-brown
wee-brown•3y ago
new one works for me
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
hm? odd for me it gives a crash error on the most recent wine-ge lemme start it like that rq, and ill post logs
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
logs on most recent hold up what winetricks dependencies do you have? ill try mirroring what you have see if that works
wee-brown
wee-brown•3y ago
all the ones that are recommended for first setup, i think?

mybad on that one lol
wee-brown
wee-brown•3y ago
none, it just runs for me
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
huh what distro you on then? bc like to even get the launcher to work for me i had to get a DLL from winetricks
wee-brown
wee-brown•3y ago
arch based
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
hmmm idk why it isnt working for me ill make a fresh prefix what dependencies does this use again? besides d3dx9_43 ill try with just that rq nope boots into launcher but not into the game blackscreen then crash no gearbox logo either funny thing on one game boot it showed the logo video
wee-brown
wee-brown•3y ago
hmmmm
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
THEN it crashed and like im far from under-speced aswell
wee-brown
wee-brown•3y ago
give me a second to boot it up, see if it still works for me past the launcher
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
alr
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
you might need native dotnet40
wee-brown
wee-brown•3y ago
yeah, i didn't do anything on a fresh prefix and it booted right up there was a thing that said "launch options" above the play button, did you change that to homeworld?

What windows DLL would that be?
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
you don't need it worked for RawToast without it
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
huh why dont I have the launch options? bc this isnt working for me :/ launching the EXE directly doenst work either opens a chrome tab to sign into epic for some reason then hangs immediately
wee-brown
wee-brown•3y ago
with a fresh prefix on the latest wine, post the log again? I went back to check this again. The box with the Launch Options only appears after pressing play for me, then stays for subsequent launches. My game is launching from GOG, are you launching from Epic? If so, I'll give that a try and see if I reproduce it After installing the Epic version, I was not able to replicate it. The Gearbox logo was a little stuttery, but the game loads into gameplay and plays the cutscenes just fine do you have ~/Documents/My Games/Homeworld Remastered/ created? It may be having trouble with that? I don't know
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
epic hm, lemme check has it ill make a new prefix it being on my 2nd drive wont effect anything, right? (trying to save space on boot drive)
wee-brown
wee-brown•3y ago
i have it on my second drive, but what is the format of your drive?
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
ext4
No description
wee-brown
wee-brown•3y ago
should be fine, then
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
game booted into the gearbox logo, did not load further after that (black screen, had to force close)
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
gonna try again once more
wee-brown
wee-brown•3y ago
that's on 7 not latest
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
latest doesnt boot into launcher iirc ill try latest
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
not booting on more recent
wee-brown
wee-brown•3y ago
that's still not the latest, the latest is 8-13 or you can refresh and just update wine-ge-latest
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
oh wait it is? alr ill do that diddnt know a new release happened
wee-brown
wee-brown•3y ago
it's not very clear sometimes, i honestly wish there was a ping in-app about it because i've been a version behind for a full 20 days lol and actually, there was a release yesterday for 14
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
yeah, same on that also wish accessing older versions was easier (or documented) but either way
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
crashed, diddnt get into launcher even
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
theres logs ((dont have any wine/windows dependencies installed from winetricks also, due to it being a fresh prefix
wee-brown
wee-brown•3y ago
on this same prefix try installing d3dx9_43, d3dcompiler_47, and dotnet40 from winetricks, one at a time in that order after each one, try booting it up to see if it is fixed if it asks you to install mono, make sure to install it
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
alr did with first, crashes dwonlading the compiler
wee-brown
wee-brown•3y ago
post the heroic log for that crash?
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
installing the next now
wee-brown
wee-brown•3y ago
oh, you mean that it crashed loading up the game?
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
like loading at all no launcher gives a wine crash logs
wee-brown
wee-brown•3y ago
yeah, but not during the download of the library
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
I suppose yeah
wee-brown
wee-brown•3y ago
okay, cool another thing you might try is "Verify and Repair"
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
ill do that if downloading the DLLs doesnt work
wee-brown
wee-brown•3y ago
sure
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
idk why the game files would be corrupt tho just installed lmao
wee-brown
wee-brown•3y ago
it just happens sometimes. if a file gets interrupted during download it would go on to the next one happened to me yesterday, actually
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
fair. The classic versions of the game launch from the launcher tho (on older wine-ge)
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
after installing the d3d compiler
wee-brown
wee-brown•3y ago
actually, that error changed so skip the last one and go for the verify
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
oof, missed your msg already isntalled dotnet40 now it doesnt even try gonna remove it and verify
wee-brown
wee-brown•3y ago
lol no worries
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
wee-brown
wee-brown•3y ago
so this is post verify and with a fresh prefix?
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
yeah
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
I added the d3d dlls that were needed
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
not even launching at all now
wee-brown
wee-brown•3y ago
did you try it without those? was that the last log?
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
you don't have wine mono installed install it first
wee-brown
wee-brown•3y ago
how did you know?
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
It Can't load dotnet
wee-brown
wee-brown•3y ago
interesting, thank you!
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh forgot to install that on the new prefix will do (ill post logs when I do)
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
no luck installed mono black screen gonna make a fresh prefix with JUST mono rq
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
Your wine ge is 60 years old wtf Please update You aren't going to be running anything on a wine version from 2 years ago
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
the launcher doesnt work on wine thats newer ill go to latest and post logs
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
Press refresh button It doesn't auto update Damn you must have been using heroic for a long time then
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
no like i manually put it on an old version
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
Oh Lol
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
because the game's launcher doesnt work on newer version of wine
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
heres the logs for wine-ge latest
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
Wine mono not installed
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
wait what
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
You have to reinstall it A newer version
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
i did, ill do it again
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
You jumped many wine-ge versions
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
yeah thats fair
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
intalled mono
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
gives me a program error super weird also also is there a way to get like WAY older wine versions on heroic? bc I read that some 6.X releases work for people experiencing the problems I have (on the compatability page*)
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
Looks like missing wine dependencies
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
oh yeahhh need d3d43 and the compiler ill brb
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
Do you have all the gstreamer plugins Installed Including 32 bit ones It can't play some video
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
nope, diddnt know that was the streaming plugin for that i install it from winetricks right?
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
no system package
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
huh, ill try to install it also got the missing dependencies
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
still crashes on launch
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
I got out of bed for this, better work first try for me
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
sorry lmao hope it does
molecular-blue

I am going to scream why is this working for you but not me
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago

ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
ubuntu 23.04
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
ofc it's ubuntu lol
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
yep meaning to distro hop
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
u aren't using snap right
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
lazy heck no .deb
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
ok thank god
ratty-blush

ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
ill try that also the wine mono package? so I never have to worry about it again
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
oh you wanna know the name for ubuntu lemme find it
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
yeah maybe this will magically fix it on your wine prefix for the game, what windows dependencies do you have on it?
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
none only dxvk and vkd3d I litterally just clicked play doesn't exist on ubuntu sorry šŸ’€ even flatpak has it
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
I have flathub installed why tf is it just working then
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
yeah but for the flathub package to use it you have to install heroic thourgh flatpak
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
aughhhhhhhhhhhh god
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
missing deps from above ig
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
which ones were missing from mine? besides the d3d9 ones
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
this one you tried it right?
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
oh yeahhh did it still crashing
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
ok now install the i386 version of all those packages as well
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
im going back to the ancient wine version and see if its magically fixed, atleast I could get into the launcher on that uhhhhhhhhhhhh how would I do that?
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
idk i stopped using ubuntu like 2 years ago was too unstable
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
fair and yeah my entire reason for wanting to switch distros what did you move to?
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
arch
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
tried fedora, but too slow for me
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
even fedora rawhide is better in what aspect
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
like clunky
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
package manager?
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
and yeah that too
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
yeah that thing is really slow
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
messes with my APT themed muscle memory aswell
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
luckily dnf5 is great it's about as fast as apt now
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
huh neat
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
not shipped by default yet
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
might move to an arch based distro
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
they pushed it back to fedora 41
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
yeah?
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
so you have to install dnf5 manually I was actually astonished at its speed tho
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
huh interesting I might try smth arch based soon
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
like I don't feel like a turtle
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
yeah
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
on fedora with dnf5 don't go for manjaro pls
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
yeah, ik was part of my researching doesnt do what I need tbh the only reason why I have stuck with ubuntu is I have alot of files
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
arch can do everything?
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
fedora is redhat based?
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
I have litterally not seen something that arch can't do
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
oh i must have been thinking about a different distro i am running on 4 hours of sleep
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
arch is not the same as fedora or has anything to do with redhat
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
ik
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
seems like you think that way ok just checking
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
anyways
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
you could also try heroic flatpak that one might work
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
eh, yeah last time I used the flatpack version it diddnt play well with my 2nd hard drive tho I solved it on my end tho, so I might move back to it but im going to try this on a fresh prefix tho wine mono nothing funky and see if this works
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
crashed, diddnt go to launcher
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
im gonna turn in for the night and go at this tomorrow with fresh eyes lmk if im missing any more dependancies
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
ok so it's probably 32 bit gstreamer
apt-get install libgstreamer1.0-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-dev gstreamer1.0-plugins-base gstreamer1.0-plugins-good gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly gstreamer1.0-libav gstreamer1.0-tools gstreamer1.0-x gstreamer1.0-alsa gstreamer1.0-gl gstreamer1.0-gtk3 gstreamer1.0-qt5 gstreamer1.0-pulseaudio
apt-get install libgstreamer1.0-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-dev gstreamer1.0-plugins-base gstreamer1.0-plugins-good gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly gstreamer1.0-libav gstreamer1.0-tools gstreamer1.0-x gstreamer1.0-alsa gstreamer1.0-gl gstreamer1.0-gtk3 gstreamer1.0-qt5 gstreamer1.0-pulseaudio
take this and add :i386 to the end of package
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
to all the packages? alr will do downloading now so launcher opens now the game itself does not
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
wee-brown
wee-brown•3y ago
after downloading all that i'm pretty sure you need to delete the prefix
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
ah will do that
wee-brown
wee-brown•3y ago
make sure mono is installed on the new prefix
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
there we go it finally looks like it's working but you are still missing a bunch of stuff https://www.gloriouseggroll.tv/how-to-get-out-of-wine-dependency-hell/ follow this guide
wee-brown
wee-brown•3y ago
handy link, thanks
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
o, alr thx I sometimes get ingame now but crash after like 10 minutes
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
yeah you probably need to install the stuff in that guide then
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
yeah running the command given now hopefully this will solve some of my other issues aswell diddnt solve i it* still usually crashing on game startup so like i did install it correctly, right? (the thing from the website). ran the command from the ubuntu section
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
yeah as long as you got it word for word
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
pretty sure I did I just dont get why its being so inconsistant
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
ok lemme run it a few times
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
from my tests, I get ingame (ingame being past a black screen, onto the main menu) about 1/10 - 1/15 times
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
wtf that's really low it just worked 2/2 times here
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
huh ill record my screen rq show you what I see
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
the graphical issues are not real I do not get those ubuntu screen capture being weird
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
bluds screen capture exploded ubuntu moment anyway I got it working 3/3 times
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
so true why is it working for you ughhhhhhhhhhhhh
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
heroic games launcher crashed before this stupid game
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
this is severely annoying
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
4/4 times
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
tbh im am tempted to install a different distro at this point like ingame?
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
yeah into the menu
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
the launcher always opens
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
I even pressed tutorial one of the times
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
aughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
cuz i got bored of seeing the game work
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
all my other games work fine but this why doesnt it work
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
I have no idea maybe reboot your machine idk
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
i have lmao ill do it once more brb
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
update your nvidia drivers? first
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
they are fully up to date
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
no they aren't
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
GTX 1060 drivers
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
they released a driver yesterday 535.104
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
huh
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
or was it today I don't remember

ratty-blushOP•3y ago
i think im on most recent? nope
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
No description
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
how do I update?
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
oh ubuntu doesn't have .96 yet either wtf that's like 2 weeks old and fixes major flickering and shader cache problems
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
I mean I installed the drivers a month or 2 ago
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
and they don't roll out the update because of "stability reasons" wow
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
maybe sudo apt update diddnt do it
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
gotta love these guys
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
yep couldnt I just download the drivers.sh package from nvidia website and run it?
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
nobody recommends that + your system will probably explode no matter the distro
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
yeah had it happen on my OG machine annoying
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
it also might be an nvidia driver issue, even on latest
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
could this really be a driver issue?
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
im on amd
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
lucky OKOK so get this so
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
are you using wayland?
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
this system was originally a 20.04 ubuntu install no lmfao and my built in screen supports 120hertz and it would go up to that on said older version but when I updated the option got greyed out and set to 60 weird ĀÆ\_(惄)_/ĀÆ
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
x11 moment
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
yep
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
at this point use another distro, this is a hole that's too deep
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
yeah meant to do as much just moving everything is gonna be a pain
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
you can litterally dual boot learn second distro keep all your files
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
I am on a 256gb SSD and have a 512 on my desk
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
move them as needed
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
im simply gonna swap ssds
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
galaxy brain strategy
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
as i dont have the space for that ill just backup my files on my HDD in the laptop (yes, ew, HDD in laptop) ((I am going to upgrade that soon))
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
I still use an HDD to store games
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
yeah in my old desktop I had like 6tb of storage
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
it's pretty fast like games work pretty ok
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
yeah
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
my ssd is limited by the filesystem being straight poopoo tho don't use btrfs it's not stable enough yet
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
yeah Ill probably stick to ext4 as its fast enough for what I do and I dont know of any major benifits to other ones atleast for me*
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
yeah I just wanted to try btrfs since it's the default on stuff like fedora I still regret it xfs is a much better option
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
its that bad?
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
for me it is
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
fair
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
only one drive I have ever used seems to work properly with it it's my 2tb hdd with all my games every other drive is a disaster
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
yeah Wanna know why I switched to linux in the first place?
molecular-blue
molecular-blue•3y ago
lol yes
ratty-blush
ratty-blushOP•3y ago
SO for as long as ive been using computers ive used windows because like its been there but on my main (old) pc like 1/10 every time I'd use a USB stick the file system on said stick would kill itself properly ejecting and everything fat36, ntfs all of them ((and ISO managment is also horrid) its a silly reason also like, the usual reasons I probably would have never switch if it wasnt for the fact I used a 2008 macbook pro as my daily driver tho (((now that I say it, it sounds really dumb lol))) I have plenty of windows horror stories tho
