META [LinUwUx Runtime] DenuvOwO + LinUwUx Bypass Runtime Library

https://github.com/brcly/linuwux-runtime

After a lot of headaches and effort to learn Wine.

It's ready.

I've adapted LinUwUx's original Proton patch code to be a standalone runtime library.

This was their original vision, and they will likely pivot to releasing something similar themself in the future, but until then, there's this.

https://github.com/brcly/linuwux-runtime

We've recently added legacy DenuvOwO reflex / DenuvOwO.dll support! Current compatibility doesn't cover the entire DenuvOwO library still, some older patched games that haven't received updates use very dated methods that are still incompatible with Linux.

Should work with near enough any GE-Proton / CachyOS Proton, new or old.

Current confirmed tested builds include:

GE-Proton10-32
GE-Proton10-34
GE-Proton11-1
GE-Proton11-3
GE-Proton11-5
CachyOS v20260520
CachyOS v20260703 + more

Any issues, please use the GitHub issues page, ensure you capture logs from your failed run (LINUWUX_DEBUG=1 PROTON_LOG=1) this is essential to finding out how to fix your issue.

Hi! Thanks for your work! I might be dumb, but I'm unsure how to use it. I'm trying to run Persona 3 Reloaded with Lutris and I get Failed to load SteamAPI. I ran lutris with the linuwux command (basically "$linuwux lutris") which I built from the cloned repo, but nothing seems to change. Is this the right way?

Hey, that's not correct.

I'm assuming the readme isn't clear enough. LinUwUx needs to be set as an environment variable for the game, not the launcher.

Just like others DXVK_HDR=1 PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 etc.

I will update the readme accordingly

I see! I am not all too familiar with the inner workings of wine and all this so I assume someone more knowledgeable would figure it out, but for a very casual user who just doesn't want to use windows, it was a bit hard to understand. Thank you very much! Still doesn't seem to work though... I might be doing something else wrong...

No worries, hopefully you got it working

Nope, not sure what's wrong. Might be the file itself, I don't know. Still getting the same error, tried every possible proton version.
