Ron steam theres a remaster for it
Rbut i want to play the classic edition
Twhat game?
RPocket Mirror
Tdid you already download the runtime package as instructed by the readme?
RVX Ace? Yep
Dawww damn, most likely theyre talking about windows dependencies which you can get using protontricks
RMaybe, but which ones?
Dor winetricks in the case of lutris
Tjust downloaded it from itch, installed the VX Ace RTP, ran the Pocket Mirror exe, no additional deps needed
RWhat am I missing then
T
R
Dyeah… that might be a pain to figure out, the game just freezes at launch still? even with the 60fps fix?
Ryep
Rthe game runs but the image is frozen
Rmy directory looks like this
Di wonder if the steam version is out of date
Rthe steam version is a 2023 remaster, not the same game
Rim trying to run the itch io version, this one
Doh gotcha
Kplatinum rated
Twrite down the steps you performed, in order.
Rdid all the steps but dont get it working
TI should note that I did it via Lutris
Tusing wine-ge-8-26
RDownloaded the game from itch.io
Downloaded VX Ace runtime from the website that itch.io says
Downloaded VX Ace runtime from the website that itch.io says
Rshould work either way
Ryes but im trying to run the itch io version
Rso its not really a solution
Keither way? how did you do it if not via lutris?
Rthe guy got it working on both
Ri assume he used the same wine version
Rwhich he didnt tell, he just told me "missing dependencies"
Tit's not a dependency problem. I installed zero
Tand then?
Krun it in what? installed in what?
T"tried to run it" is not detailed
RI run it in bottles
Twhat's "it?" what was used to run? etc.
Rwith soda 9.1
Ri also tried wine GE 8
Rboth presented the same issue
Kplease try Lutris. I cannot support Bottles. It's a flatpak and follows completely different stadards from any other gaming wine runner.
Rthe issue being: game opens but doesnt load the main menu
Rthe music does play
Tthere's a reason why I asked for the order of operations
Rwill try Lutris and report back
Dshould be ez pz just adding the .exe, selecting wine-ge 8.26
