So I’ve tried Fallout London GoG version in Lutris: I’ve had issues in making the 2nd installer works but I managed it someway.
Now I’ve a pretty standard issue which happens in Windows too it seems: after each intro cutscene I have zero voices and music. In the beginning I had the same issue with sound effects but it has been fixed by the winetricks xaudio and directmusic or something.
Unfortunately those didn’t fix the voices and musics.
Has someone had this type of issue? I’m convinced I’m missing some library but I do not know which: wine log is perfect not even a warning so it cannot help… I guess the next try could be raising wine log level but in the meanwhile if someone knows the topic… thank you in advance
I had this the first time round, but cleaned it off since there were so many bugs, so I thought I’d wait a bit.
This reminded me 1.02 was released
Installed GoG F4 using default Lutris GoG installer. Used standard WINE staging to install Mod Organizer 2 and the FoLon installer, and ran the game once. Voices were ok, but FPS performance was terrible
Created a duplicate of Fallout4 in Lutris, pointed it instead at the install.exe in the London install dir, and changed the runner to Proton, and launched again.
Voices and music still works, and performance a lot better than stock WINE
No idea if any of the early “fixes” (xact, dx10) will work for you, but there’s probably updated reddit posts by now.
You know the best advice I can give to everyone is the following: know your distro. Just that.
So what I’ve done:
The basics: remove wine profile, checking that my system is using the intended Wine, creating a new profile with winecfg
Executing Lutris and setting a custom Wine executable: that’s my ace in the hole. The reason is that Lutris by default - or at least by default on my distro - is using a 32bit Wine version which indeed my system support by there is a huge warning on Gentoo handbook saying: even in a multilib system (meaning system compiled both with 32 and 64 bit libraries) it’s not guaranteed that all the libraries can support both architectures. So as soon as I set the custom binary Wine exec 64 bit the world changed
Due to the configuration of point 2., Lutris falls on a bug due to a .yml file (there is a related thread in this forum), so I installed GOG Galaxy manually from a terminal. After the installation was completed from within Lutris I chose to add a ‘game’ and manually set the executable and its dir
Launched GOG Galaxy from Lutris
From within GOG Galaxy installed FOLON but DIDN’T execute it at the end of the installation
From within GOG Galaxy installed Fallout 4 GOTY which is required for FOLON
Executed from within GOG Galaxy FOLON
FOLON custom installer found the Fallout 4 dir and installed the MOD
Launched FOLON
By instead setting the 32-bit Wine version even using the vanillas installed onto my system I got the following issues:
FOLON installer may not find Fallout 4 dir even when pointing at it. After some exit and restart the application or changing randomly Wine versions it may succeed
