Fallout - New California released

"It just works"
Seriously, I just installed New Vegas in #Lutris, and ran the installer in the #WINE prefix.

Tip because I've been having this issue with Fallout: London as well with no success in finding anything about it on the net: setting audio driver to #ALSA in Lutris fixed the deafening buzzing sound that happens with the opening cutscene. (I don't have ALSA installed, so it must install it to the WINE prefix). Fixed the same issue with Fallout London as well. Been trying to fix this for a while now, and now I can actually play!

Through #WINE and absolute fuckery, I was able to get #SkyrimSE running with #MO2 and run my existing load order. No more messing with #VFIO and #KVM . Only thing that won't work is #ENB — for that I'm testing #CommunityShaders which so far looks good. Not quite as pretty, but far more performant.

• move Skyrim mod install from Steam .exe to GOG
• after installing correct skse version and address library, updating a handful of mods, things just work
• notice performance pretty quickly gets worse, laggy, stutters, and eventually CTD
• narrow it down to a memory leak in the GOG .exe
• there's a mod to fix it

Thanks modding community

So I finally found getting ModOrganizer 2 to run on GNU/Linux is easier than I expected once I found the right script. So that's my next few nights sorted building myself a nice loadorder.

#Skyrim #Linux #MO2

Modding Oblivion on Linux is challenging. I started to do it manually, but mods wasn't loaded even though I saw them on the datafiles panel.

Wyre Bash was lacking a requirements file (I may retry it from their git directly) and wanted to use the system python at all cost to function properly. I felt vitualenv or nothing. 🤔

Installing Mo2 was lengthy and the UI behaves a bit strange through Wine. It threw errors about unimplemented calls. But at least the mods were loaded. Too bad the game crashes after 1 second... 🤦

Playing Fallout: London in a VM, installed through MO2: a virtualized file system over a virtualized machine.

Why am I like this?
#FalloutLondon #KVM #mo2

So state of #steamdeck automated modding for #Bethesda games as I see it now. #Wabbajack: still basically impossible to run on #linux, #Vortex works with steamtinkerlaunch and you can do Nexus collections - but you lose #MO2 support.
Don't even bother trying to do #Skyrim - mods are a mess right now. But you may have a shot doing stuff like #Oblivion using collections.

This is something I hope we will see significant improvement on.
