Seriously I have games dating back to the 90's.ĭo I really need to repurchase games on Steam just to play them (which isn't so bad during the Winter Sale going on) or is there another option (GOG or some other platform)? I'm sure it's probably something I'm doing wrong, but all the tutorials I find are outdated or only focus on Steam (which doesn't really need a tutorial). Games like Civ IV, Empire Earth, Rise of Nations, Crysis, X3: Reunion, and the Quake series I've had no luck getting them to install from CD using Wine or PlayOnLinux. This is a bit off topic but are there any gamers here? I've had pretty good luck with Steam+Proton on the few games I have, but I have a lot of older non-steam games that I haven't had much luck with. VFAT isn't, so all the mismatched case stuff just works. It's a mess on an EXT4 filesystem which is case-sensitve. I've run into so many problems with installing 3rd party / free content from outside of the DAZ store that doesn't have any consisitencey with upper/lowercase names in files/directories. Just make sure your wine-prefix directories are on a vfat filesystem (or at least your library directory).

I've never had to do the 'workaround' by installing Postgres under Linux and pointing DAZ to it. Even the Windows-based Postgres DB it installs. Every CoD up to the early 2010 games, GTA1-4, Crysis 1 / 2, and lots more. Not only that, almost all older games I've thrown at this thing work. I've run DAZ from day 1 under Lutris-managed WINE runners and it's been flawless for me (except for the lack of GPU rendering of course). Seriously, just get Lutris, and use the custom Lutris builds of wine which have pretty much the same tweaks to them that Proton does. Any of you doing Wine manually, installing deb/rpm/flatpak versions, manually compiling vulkan, etc.etc. For all Wine-related stuff you do in Linux.
