Hey ! I bought a game on steam, but I cannot install it on lutris as it’s not even listed… It’s a windows only game. Is there a way to play it? Am I doing something wrong?
The game is Wednesdays : https://store.steampowered.com/app/2747770/Wednesdays/
Thanks!
If you don’t see your windows games in steam on Linux you have to enable Settings/Compatibility/‘Enable Steam Play for all other titles’, then just install normally from the Library screen.
I feel that this setting could be on by default nowadays
It really should be.
I do wonder why Valve hasn’t enabled it by default. It’s only defaulted on SteamOS and in fact, I believe they removed the option to turn it off on SteamOS recently…
That was it! Thanks a lot!!!
what a time to be alive
Especially considering theyre plenty happy to advertise and sell windows only games to you in the store when running linux.
It seems to be working with Pronton
Install Steam client, log in and download it there. Even if you connect Lutris to you Steam account, AFAIK, the way Lutris launches those is just launching Steam
What you mean when say “windows only”? You can just set “use proton” in steam client and run windows game on Linux with proton.
ProtonDB link: https://www.protondb.com/app/2747770?device=any
Go into the game’s settings in Steam and then set its compatibility to Proton Hotfix. You should then have the option to install it.
Enable Proton. And check ProtonDB before you run it.
I have 3-4 older games, like Giants: Citizen Kabuto and Deus Ex that I run separately under Wine, using the default settings.
