Here I've been ignoring play.it because I'm an Arch user - I was under the impression that it only supported Debian and derivatives. Seeing that it supports Arch, I'm going to have to revisit it. Thanks for the heads up!!

I'm from the western/redneck part of Canada - my French is .... spotty, at best.

As I said in the FAQ, yes :)

I can probably do wrappers for all of those easily enough though as I've previously had them all running in Wine; VTM:B has some graphical issues though so I've been holding off that for now.

A wrapper for this is now ready, just needs some more thorough testing :)

Adamhm, you just may be my favorite person on the site.

That’s a good thing, despite what I claimed earlier ./play.it actually doesn’t support it yet…
Looks like I got mixed up ;)

About VTM:B, what kind of graphical issues did you notice?

A wrapper is now available for Total Overdose :) Also a wrapper is more or less ready for Jade Empire now, just needs a bit more testing.

Objects/geometry popping in/out around the edges of the screen. The game is still playable, but this can be a bit distracting.

nvidia driver I guess? I don’t remember anything like this with radeon and amdgpu.

By the way, I feel curious and as there must be quite a lot of Linux GOGlodytes following this thread it might be the best place to ask: are any of you using the free driver nouveau for your gaming?

My current system uses an RX480 with open drivers, while my previous system uses a GTX750Ti with proprietary drivers & the issue occurs on both systems.

Just tried it, and works like a charm. Thanks! :)

I'm using an Intel / nVidia bumblebee laptop. I use the proprietary driver. I haven't had much success with Nouveau, but then, I also haven't tried it in a long while.

Hi there!

Good job on these scripts! Thanks!

I have a few observations on Mirror's edge script. Another dependency to add in README is "unrar".

My install partition has some permission issues that I'm trying to understand and fix thus I get:
Extracting ./temp/language_setup/language_setup.exe OK
All OK
Done.
mirrors_edge_wine.sh: line 227: /mnt/sdd_577.5GB/gog_downloads/mirrors_edge_wine/Mirror's Edge/wine/bin/wine: Permission denied
mirrors_edge_wine.sh: line 228: /mnt/sdd_577.5GB/gog_downloads/mirrors_edge_wine/Mirror's Edge/wine/bin/wine: Permission denied
Moving files into place...
mv: cannot move './temp/game' to "/mnt/sdd_577.5GB/gog_downloads/mirrors_edge_wine/Mirror's Edge/prefix/drive_c/Mirror's Edge": No such file or directory
Done.
Building .tar.xz archive (this will take a while)

You may want to add additional checks for the success of basic commands, like rm, mv etc. before "Done.". One can run out of space ;)

Same here | sed -e 's/bumblebee laptop/old desktop/' -e 's/long while/long, long, loooooooong while/'

:P

It was taken for granted that people would have basic tools like unrar installed since RAR files are very common. I could add it to the list along with Zenity though.

There are already some checks for this & running out of space should already abort the script (at least if it causes innoextract to fail). I'll definitely see about adding more checks for other failures though.

These will both have to wait until I next update everything, but I'll add them to the list :)

What filesystem does this partition use?

It looks like everything gets extracted but Wine fails to run because it doesn't have execute permission, which means it fails to create the prefix so there's no prefix for it to move ./temp/game into. This sounds a lot like you're trying to install it to a Windows filesystem like FAT32 or NTFS, which don't store attributes such as execute permissions.

A wrapper is now available for Jade Empire :)
