Running a trainer with a game on Linux using Proton and Heroic
So Im trying to figure out how to run a trainer with a windows game using Proton and Heroic on Arch Linux..any help is much appreciated..Thanks in Advance
ICan someone show me how to run multiple files with a bat file on Arch linux?
Iguys please help?
Cyou don't, what you want are bash scripts or .sh files
Nmake a .bat file in your game folder with your version of the following contents:
Nset the .bat file as the alternative exe
Cyou can run .bat files on linux?
Coh of course you can as long as it's through wine
Ci feel dumb lol
Nhere's guacamelee 2 complaining that there's an existing instance of the game after running the game's exe and a copy of the exe
Nyeah, so long as they're not too complex
Ncalling two exes is nothing though
Nthat's the extent of all I'd use bats for
IThanks Guys..will try that and let u know
ISo I did exactly that and the game run without the trainer :wha:
Nwithout any context, I can't provide any input
IOk..so the game is Assassins Creed Black Flag I just wanted a game that has a working trainer..the trainer is fling trainer and it run by itself And I made the bat file in the format u suggested and the game run without the trainer
II don't know what Im doing wrong since the game run successfully
Nstill needs more context. file locations, file names, etc.
Ndoes the trainer require additional dependencies?
Ntest it by using "Run EXE in prefix"
II did run exe in prefix and now the trainer run but the game dosen't
Iis there a better solution for Linux other than running a standalone trainer..I get it that some people have succeeded in running such trainers but we need more reliable way in modding single-player games without all this hustle
NSteamTinkerLaunch is useful for this for games on Steam as it is better with concurrent exes than hacking around with batches
Nbut for the third time, I cannot help without more context
Iwhat info you'd like to know?
Nthis for starters
Ncontents of your .bat in its entirety
IHere is my bat file and all files located in one folder :
Nrename the trainer exe to get rid of that period in the middle, or simply rename it trainer.exe
Ntesting it now, you may be better off just renaming the file. using quotes didn't work for me earlier with files with spaces
IHow could I miss that..it worked flawlessly..Thank u so much :Pandayay:
Imarked as solved..Thanks to @termdisc
NGlad you got it working
WYou just set it as the alternate exe in heroic settings
CRead further, I know now lol
WThis is great, this is exactly what I was looking for.
WSo in Heroic I should change the game path to the new .bat file?
Also some games .exe are located in sub-folders. where do I put the bat file?

WYou change the alternate exe to be the bat file
WIt can be anywhere
WGreat..I am about to test with in an hour.
I will provide updates on how it works.
Thanks you.

Thanks you.
WIt works like a charm, I can't believe it...I have been searching for a solution for almost a year and sold my LCD SteamDeck because I was unable to use Trainer on Linux... Thank all of you for the help..
WNo problem!
W@QuadRadical (Ping on reply) Hi sorry to bothered you you, it possible to create a script to open two different programs in different folders?
WYeah you can modify it easily
WPlease how
WWThis works if they are in the same folder but if the second file is in a different folder it doesn't work.
Nspell out the path to the .exe then
Nz:\ is root if you need itWWhat if the .exe is in the same directory as the game folder but in a separate folder
