Lutris seems to be having huge bugs at the moment where I can’t install any games because the installer doesn’t initiate, but Lutris will go “Everything’s installed, you can launch it now!” only when I hit Play it goes “Executable not set” well that’s weird innit? I just installed that application just now, but Lutris claims the executable is not set. Sure enough I browse the directory where it said it was installed and what do I find? The directory where its suppose to be installed with it’s executable at does not exist. Opening the Log for Lutris seems to do absolutely nothing and tells nothing whats going on because it just gives up reporting anything useful because the it’s last log message is just;
Initial process has exited (return code: 0)
All processes have quit
Exit with return code 0
it doesn’t refresh, it doesn’t restart or update again when you close and restart applications, or restart Lutris. The log button is just there to run once then do nothing and look pretty it seems because I get no useful information out of it for when an applications stop working, or wont launch. It just gives up and thinks it’s completed the install successfully when it hasn’t. There was no install popup prompts asking to install the application either.
Am I running the latest version of Lutris?; As-far-as I know yes, the most recent version available of the stable release build, no-beta builds, no pre-release alphas, etc… I don’t use any custom mods or configs with Lutris other than Proton, Wine, GE-Proton. If I go manual install the applications in to the prefix outside of Lutris using system version of Wine or Proton for that matter, the application will install perfectly fine, but not in Lutris for whatever reason, it’ll create the initial directory and the wineprefix setup, but will not install the application itself. Even if if I go to the manual install from within Lutris itself, if I go Run EXE inside Wine prefix Lutris will do nothing. If I go run the Wine Uninstaller from within Lutris, it will simply do nothing.
I think Lutris is pretty broken at the moment, whatevers been changed or updated since, it’s not working anymore. I still see deprecated warning popups in Lutris warning about “This is a 64-Bit Prefix” which shouldn’t even be a thing anymore, those warning popup messages were suppose to be silenced several versions ago.
