I can’t install Voices of the Void with the installer script; the itch app works though: Voices of the Void - Lutris
I have read the pinned topic and I think (hopefully) I don’t need to provide too much debugging, as I think this is a mistake in the install script. The error is, as said, after the popup to select install location, clicking “continue” brings up this message. With lutris -d:

raise ValueError("Missing Itch.io app ID")
Checking the script on the page doesn’t mention any ID, however when downloading it instead of viewing it, there are more “layers” or “levels” of the .json: Direct link to downloadable .json
There you can see mentions of an id and a game_id variable, which are either misnamed so the installer can’t find it, not placed into the game layer like arch, exe etc. which is unlikely as I tried to put them there and run it, and it still can’t find it. Also, I tried searching for the game’s ID but I couldn’t find any mentions of an “itchid” or any numerical ID for any Itch game, so I couldn’t investigate further.
The documentation for script writing mentions IDs for Steam, GOG etc. but not for Itch.
If I was mistaken and need additional info, please let me know. Thank you for the help!
I have the same problem with the Itch.io version installer for OneShot, same error output. Maybe a recurring issue with Itch installers? Someone knowledgeable should look into this.

…remove the game/prefix entirely, then retry the install.

command existed with code 256 idk
what is “sha256 beginning 29f for VC redist 2019”?
sha256 is a hash - in this case used as a checksum - they get put in winetricks so it has a basic check of what it is downloading It is a low-effort way of confirming that downloads are what they say they are. The current checksum for visualc++2019 runtime starts with 29f - as per your previous log.
Did you completely delete the old /home/elliot/games/windows/voices-of-the-void - chances are you also need to delete it in Linux after selecting remove in Lutris.
Error 256 is sometimes a windows setup error where it installs. I’ve just run a test on mine and it installs fine. Also, if you are running flatpak version of lutris, as you’ve changed the path from the default, make sure it has access to write files.
awsome, thanks for sharing knowledge
yes i did completely remove the game folder, using the thunar file manager.
oh interesting, how might i give lutris access to write files?
Just confirm if you are running Lutris 5.17 flatpak before we start poking around.
Start with the basics first - have you got 32 bit support enabled and WINE staging installed? Your VotV script is failing on the 32 bit version of vc_redist. Windows error 183 is weird, as it usually means “already installed,” or something blocking files being copied, and why we delete the directory completely.
Check the install file ls -l /home/elliot/.cache/winetricks/vcrun2019 - you should have a vc_redist.x86.exe at around 13820168 bytes, if it isn’t, then delete it and it’ll re-download automatically.
Sorry if that seems out of the blue, but you necrobumped an old thread and will have a slightly different config You might have guessed by now that it installs and runs fine for me every time.
ok after some fandagling, figured out the lutris i had installed was from debian’s software aapp? not flatpak. installed the flatpak one. couldn’t install votv 0.8.1b but 0.8.0e worked. epic epic
