Return code 256 EGS, BNet, EA App

There is an issue with winetricks downloading corefonts atm. If you are experiencing this issue and see any reference to corefonts in the output installing these launchers or any other game, you will need to clear the folder listed below and manually copy the font from the web link here to the appropriate folder and run the install again. As always, make sure you are running lutris 0.5.13/14 and have the latest wine-ge 8.x (currently 17) installed in lutris using the wine folder under the runners section on the left hand bar in lutris:

If you are on the Steam Deck or use flatpak lutris, the folder to clear and load the new fonts into is /home/your user name/.var/app/net.lutris.Lutris/cache/winetricks/corefonts

If you have native lutris, the folder is /home/your user name/.cache/winetricks/corefonts

This didn’t work for me. Please see the following topic for more details.

I was not sure what you meant by “copy the font […] to the appropriate folder.”
I guessed you mean “/home/your user name/.cache/winetricks/corefonts”?!?

Note that you may use the following path if lutris was installed with flatpak.
/home/<user>/.var/app/net.lutris.Lutris/cache/winetricks/corefonts

Funnily enough, I said that in the original post…
