Yeah Linux!,
Linux, Bitch!
Meanwhile, me running my whole Steam library off ZFS over NFS 😅
As a windows user, this meme both confused and frightened me.
Windows users don’t need to worry about Wine/Proton
Wait, why not? I’ve been doing this for a few games so I can play on Linux or boot to Windows and play there if I need more reliable remote play or better performance. I haven’t had any major issues, just annoying occasional proton reinstallation when I’m in Linux.
Wait a minute, Proton didn’t shit the bed when you run games off of NTFS? Did you happen to set permission masks or smth?
the issue probably is that you had the proton/wineprefixes on ntfs which will not work
@MyFairJulia wait, you can run games from ntfs drives with linux? what ntfs driver is recommended for that? is ntfs3g broken? I’m asking because each time I try to do something like that, I do get permission issues, as you say. Worse, each time windows would make a file, the linux side would come up with a permission error when trying to access it. That’s why, I don’t use ntfs stuff anymore at all
I didn’t know that I wasn’t meant to run windows game off ntfs, didn’t have any issues but the drive did die recently (bad sector) I’m assuming this might have been the reason?
that’s possible, ntfs and linux are known to not work very well, as you probably have seen in this thread.
I run overwatch and rdr2 from ntfs partition with no problems. I just created a symlink from the default install path.
