Wine Launcher 404

[Alchemist00]

Tried the new runner, but get this error now: https://i.imgur.com/p3c6MD2.jpg

The error list is longer if I try to use dx9.

I get that often when running any fresh version of wine, something something cache probably. Could you try just starting it again without any changes?

[Alchemist00]

Killed all wine processes, same result.

[feffe]

seems weird, are you using dxvk through lutris or some other method?

[Alchemist00]

my config looks just like yours.

[feffe]

does it crash on the launcher or the client?

[Alchemist00]

The client, the launcher logs in and works fine itself.

[feffe]

no clue in that case, if it was the launcher we could have tried to see if it still happened on other wine versions

Hello, managed to build a version that should work with any lutris install, confirmed by at least one other person so far. Link is in op.

EDIT: Also yeah, why is this no longer in tech support? Seems really weird to put it in general, can we get an admin to move it back?

You're the best. Logged in, no issues so far.

Also yes, this is better in tech support as that's the first place many would look.

And let's not forget this is really a hacky bandaid; Square, please throw us the bone of not keeping this launcher change. I can't see the harm in how it worked before letting Windows force CEF - the MSHTML part of the launcher is the only bit Linux can't do and this requires no real effort or official support on your end.

I noticed they moved it and wasn't sure why. We found fixes ourselves, so the least they can do is keep it visible; that way people can find the solution more easily instead of bothering SE directly (or unsubscribing). You'd think that would be in their interests...

If linux isn't officially supported, they probably did it because they don't see it as a technical issue that linux users can't play the game.

I guess they just want this thread spam-linked from technical support whenever someone inevitably makes a thread about this now.
