  • What do you mean you don’t have the game files? As in, you don’t have the installer?

    Normally you should click on “New Game”, give it a name, then “run installer” and it’ll allow selecting the installer wherever it is on your disk, run through the installation procedure, and finally you have to select “path to executable” and navigate to game’s executable in the wine prefix.

    If you already have the installed game files, create a “New Game”, give it a name, save it, open the win prefix, copy the game files into the prefix (e.g C:/Game) and in heroic again, select the path to the executable.

    If that isn’t helping, you need to provide more information about your situation.

















  • I brought it up because if you can’t contribute technically, you can contribute monetarily. Money can reduce stress. I bet you if FLOSS maintainers didn’t have to worry about money, they’d be making very different choices in life.

    Imagine if rsync were a fully funded project and the maintainer could employ devs and more maintainers to help out. Do you think they’d be happy to use AI? This dude is retired, gives his time to the project and is trying to make things better, but instead of helping, people are berating him for his approach without contributing a damn thing.

    We aren’t acting like anything. He wants to work on his passion project and people who have done absolutely nothing for the project are giving their unsolicited opinion on how he should work on his own goddamn project. They can all fuck off. It’s his project. FLOSS maintainers don’t owe us anything. Absolutely, nothing.
