To a lot of people it's difficult. Vendor lock-in, support, cartels (the old kind) and familiarity are very important factors in choosing what you're going to use to compute things.

We should embrace the new ones and build things that they are going to use.

You only have a chance with a well organized army, with good supplies and/or logistics, or with the support of the State army.

Hope you the best from Brazil, kill this piece of shit!

Is dxvk and vkd3d enabled in lutris? Maybe bottles will help you if it doesn't work in lutris. Protondb might be good to see too.

Edit: just saw this, there's a wine DLL override that might fix the game (in lutris you can config it on the wine configs) dinput8.dll=n,b .

The prefix is where the "windows" system is, the default is a .wine folder on your home folder (if i'm correct), if you enable seeing hidden directories and files it will show.

What game are you trying to run? And can you test installing the packages (the .net runtimes and the vcredist) using a wine-staging from lutris and running the game with the wine-staging? You can install it from the download, on the Wine section on the left of lutris.

Install an all in one packages (visual c++, etc) (or this for .net too) into your wine prefix and run the repacks (like fitgirl or dodi) like in windows.

Put dxvk and vkd3d-proton on your wineprefix (automated like with cachyos or manually downloaded) and maybe create a lutris application to just select the exe to install the game.

Edit: Also jc141

Edit 2: Added one link for the .net ones, run the wine cmd for these packages and they autoinstall all the gaming dependencies, so you can install almost any games. Also, you can install dependencies (like those needed by some games like skyrim) using winetricks.

Edit 3: Updated the link

One tip: gnome on a tablet is amazing, the best way to use a tablet.

I have a ThinkPad x1 tablet gen 2.

If the US used something like pix, MasterCard, visa, etc, wouldn't have any power to do this, but they want to make Brazil delete pix from existence. Interesting.

Edit: grammar
