Execute linux commands before running wine game?

Support
1

This is how I launch the game in the terminal. I need to run the first two commands in order for the game to run properly. How do I edit the game runner to execute the killall pulseaudio and pulseaudio --disable-shm=true before it runs the game within Lutris?

$ killall pulseaudio
$ pulseaudio --disable-shm=true
$ env WINEPREFIX="/home/ahmed/HaloOnline" wine "C:\windows\command\start.exe" /Unix "/home/ahmed/HaloOnline/drive_c/Program Files/Halo Online/eldorado.exe"

Create a bash script containing the two commands. Place the path it in the pre launch command field.

I made this script and then I set it as the game runner “pre-launch command” file, but I also enable “Run in a terminal” and the terminal window does not show those commands being executed before it executes the game.

#!/bin/bash

killall pulseaudio
pulseaudio --disable-shm=true

Does the pulseaudio command output anything or does it just return to the prompt? Killall just returns so you wouldn’t see it.

#!/bin/bash
echo "Stopping Pulseaudio..."
killall pulseaudio
echo "Starting Pulseaudio with shm disabled..."
pulseaudio --disable-shm=true

You could also try to run Lutris from the console and then monitor there whether you see output.
