I just want to play the game ;-;
I'm on fedora 38. please @me so I can see it, thanks

use wine-ge and get rid of the launch options
also delete the prefix just to be sure

as previously advised, delete the prefix, use wine-ge-latest, install vcrun2019 via winetricks
back up your saves
eastern-cyanOP•2y ago
ghow do i delete it?
evident-indigo•2y ago
i'm gonna guess you're using the dolphin browser you can do it through thta
or run
rm -rf "path"
eastern-cyanOP•2y ago
@RawToast neither things worked :(
evident-indigo•2y ago
please do not ping me.
in what way did it not work?
what exactly did you try?
eastern-cyanOP•2y ago
I deleted the prefix and used latest wine-ge, tired it and it did the same thing. then I installed vcrun2019 and it still blackscreens
evident-indigo•2y ago
how did you install vcrun2019?
eastern-cyanOP•2y ago
through winetricks

you didn't get rid of the arguments
"enviromentOptions": [
{
"key": "PROTON_USE_WINE3D",
"value": "1"
}
],
eastern-cyanOP•2y ago
got rid of them, nothing changes
evident-indigo•2y ago
post a new log
after every change, if it doesn't work, post a new log

your prefix is the same as the game install path. you need to not have it be that
eastern-cyanOP•2y ago
how do i change that
evident-indigo•2y ago
the same way you changed it to the game install path
eastern-cyanOP•2y ago
eastern-cyanOP•2y ago
didnt work
evident-indigo•2y ago
you now need to verify and repair since you made the folders the same. also, don't have it be in "prefixes" have it be a sub folder within prefixes for Moonlighter

i didnt rlly understand what u meant before
evident-indigo•2y ago
please be more clear. what do you not understand?
harsh-harlequin•2y ago
you have this error in the logs
00ec:err:module:import_dll Library mfc140u.dll (which is needed by L"Z:\\home\\cink\\Games\\Heroic\\Moonlighter\\Moonlighter_Data\\Plugins\\UnityNativeChromaSDK.dll") not found
did you install vcrun2019 using winetricks as suggested above?eastern-cyanOP•2y ago
i did this
it doesn't work
absent-sapphire•2y ago
could you post a new log then
eastern-cyanOP•2y ago
absent-sapphire•2y ago
your game is corrupt
could you repair it
evident-indigo•2y ago
i've told him to do it at least twice now
foreign-sapphire•2y ago
"savesPath": "/home/cink/Games/Heroic/Moonlighter/Saves", "winePrefix": "/home/cink/Games/Heroic/Moonlighter/Prefixes",These are wrong I believe RawToast also pointed out the prefix issue yesterday
evident-indigo•2y ago
okay, these are the steps you need to take, one by one.
1. Open the game page in Heroic
2. Open the sandwich menu at the top
3. Click Verify and Repair
4. Wait for that to finish
5. Open the game settings
6. Change the saves back to what they were originally. I can't for the life of me understand why you changed this:
/home/cink/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/Moonlighter/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/LocalLow/11BitStudios/Moonlighter7. Change the prefix line to the following like I told you to a while ago:
/home/cink/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/Moonlighter8. Try to open the game 9. Post a new log if it doesn't work.
foreign-sapphire•2y ago
step 6 is not consistent with 7 with the
default/
folder in thereevident-indigo•2y ago
I know, it doesn't matter too much. The default/ folder is a weird inconsistency that some people have and some people don't.
I don't want another layer of this confusing him
foreign-sapphire•2y ago
oops, I went too fast and thought you were telling him to set that
evident-indigo•2y ago
all good
eastern-cyanOP•2y ago
/home/cink/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/default/Moonlighter/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/LocalLow/11BitStudios/Moonlighter
there's no folder like this?
evident-indigo•2y ago
i've edited the message, there doesn't need to be a folder existing yet, copy and paste what's there into the save location in the heroic settings
eastern-cyanOP•2y ago
evident-indigo•2y ago
did you or did you not verify and repair?
eastern-cyanOP•2y ago
i did
it takes like 1 second and it says its repaired
evident-indigo•2y ago
i just installed it, installed vcrun2019, and it opened up just fine for me
which winetricks did you use to install vcrun2019?
eastern-cyanOP•2y ago
the one in the launcher
i just pressed the winrtricks button
evident-indigo•2y ago
good, good
try installing it again, i think you deleted the folder after you installed it the first time?
eastern-cyanOP•2y ago
i installed it again and it still doesnt work
eastern-cyanOP•2y ago
evident-indigo•2y ago
delete this folder in dolphin or whatever
/home/cink/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/default/Moonlighter/
do not change ANY settings in heroic
use winetrcks to install vcrun2019 again
eastern-cyanOP•2y ago
did it
dont work
eastern-cyanOP•2y ago
evident-indigo•2y ago
maybe a silly question, but what is the date on wine-latest?
eastern-cyanOP•2y ago
2023 -09-25
refreshed it to 10-13
evident-indigo•2y ago
You mean 10-23?
The 9-25 release had a bug with vcrun2019, I think
Make sure you hit the refresh button so it actually updates
eastern-cyanOP•2y ago
yes i meant 10-23
and no, nothing changed
foreign-sapphire•2y ago
You may need to recreate the prefix and/or reinstall vcrun
