Hello ouioui, did you try this:
open a terminal and type this command:
wget https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/538903130704838656/796102070825779250/dxvk_versions.json -P $HOME/.local/share/lutris/runtime/dxvk
?
You didn’t read the whole discussion aren’t you?

21

yeah i just tried that before posting and it didnt work

22

I dont know what you did but now it works for me so thank you. First day using linux

23

Thanks!

24

Thank you!!! You’ve freed me from the shackles of MS gaming :slight_smile: :smiley:

It didn’t work for me. Any time I try anything in terminal with Lutris it does this.

Hi @Wackyyyyyy, have you tried running this command in your terminal?

wget https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/538903130704838656/796102070825779250/dxvk_versions.json -P $HOME/.local/share/lutris/runtime/dxvk

Hello Guys!
I can’t run lutris on my Arch.
When i want to run it from menu, it doesn’t do nothing and when I want to run it from terminal, I get this errors:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “/usr/bin/lutris”, line 52, in
from lutris.gui.application import Application # pylint: disable=no-name-in-module

Thanks for help

30

This thread should help…

Missing Dependencies 0.5.12

Particularly terminal command (Arch Linux) “sudo pacman -S python-certifi” in my case provided the missing file.

31

This command solved my problem too.
Thank u so much bro

Hello all,
I am attempting to run lutris on my ubuntu machine

this is what comes up when I do “lutris -d”

33

for me it tries to connect for years

34

@mogswamp have you tryed all the options posted futher up in this post to fix your issue?; if you have and all your games are steam games, I would not use Lutris and just install your games with steam. If you have games from GOG, and Epic, I would use hero app.

35

@Shadowbane I want to play fortnite and i used all commands further uo the post.

36

Which unline game provider did you purchase fortnite from? For example, did you purchase it from Steam, GOG, or some other online store. You might want to stay with Windows because I think fortnite uses Anticheat and I have heard people getting lockout of the game if they runthe game on linux.

37

I can see that it installed the json file, but why was it missing in the first place ?
did you just happen to have one lying around , or did you create it ?

we demand to know what this sorcery is ! :smiley:
