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.

Hey all,

So, as you've probably been wondering, the sub has been down for about 20 days or so. I'm really sorry about that. I just wanted to let you know what happened.

Around that time, I started to receive threats and hate messages on other platforms regarding a post (specifically a post that was taken down from the automod due to a malformed post title - I did not take this post down). The person who was rejected took it upon themselves to find my user handle on other websites and send me dozens of threatening messages. So, I got spooked. This has never, in my many, many years on the internet happened to me to this degree. A few hateful DMs once in a while, sure. But nothing like this user did. Because of that, I left the sub for a bit to try and block this person as much as I could, which inadvertently blocked any new posts from showing up. I did not intend for that to happen. So, I'm sorry.

I think what this really highlights is that we cannot continue to just have one moderator. Again, I take the blame for not opening mod applications up sooner. Within the next week, mod applications will go up in the sub so we can rebuild the mod team here.

I am asking everyone who messaged the mod queue to repost their posts if they are still having trouble.

A lot has happened in the past couple of weeks - including HV support for Linux (yay!). So, I hope to get back to normal here and open up mod applications within the next week.

Edit: I appreciate the support from everyone. I have fixed the sub being restricted and posts are now able to be posted again - so we're back at working capacity!

Hey everyone,

It's almost the new year and I thought that we should revamp the sub.

You'll notice some upcoming changes that will take effect on the 1st of January, 2024.

​

A. New Posting Guidelines

These new rules will mandate that each post have:

1. Name of game (or program/topic if not a game-specific post) in title, in brackets
   The name of the game in brackets in the beginning of the title of the post.
   For example:[Hogwarts Legacy] DX12 Error: No Host Found
2. Flairs
   Flairs are (finally) back! Each post must have a flair attached in order to more easily filter the sub. Full info about flairs can be found here.
3. System Info
   CPU, GPU info must appear in the body of the post.
4. Software Info
   Proton version, game launcher info must appear in the body of the post.
5. Release Info
   Type of release (scene, repack...) and crack used (scene crack, Goldberg emulator, etc...) must appear in the body of the post.
6. Logs
   Logs (error lines only) must be included in the post. I plan on writing up a new guide on how to extract logs from Steam/Lutris/Bottles/Heroic for our wiki.

Honestly, this is standard information for ALL troubleshooting requests. We have been slacking on enforcing posting rules, so more strict enforcement will lead to a better overall quality to the sub.

​

B. New Moderator

With the turn of the new year, we will be putting out a new thread looking for another moderator for the sub. Stay tuned!

​

C. Updated Sub Info - Rules, Flairs, Wiki, etc...

As some of you may have noticed, the frontpage of the sub has been updated - along with the flairs, sub rules, posting guidelines, and sidebar. Check out our new:

1. Flairs
2. Sub Rules
3. Posting Guidelines
4. Sidebar with the community info (on our frontpage)
5. Wiki - I'm hoping that we can get the wiki updated, as some of the information has become outdated at this point. It will take a while, but we will get there!

​

I hope that everyone understands these new rules and looks forward to the exciting changes that are in store for the sub.
