I would like some help with playing pirated and steam games on Linux. I am comfortable with Linux bit not a super god and English is not my best.
I have a duelboot with Linux on a small 125 gb sata SSD and Windows on a 1TB NVMe SSD. I have my games installed on a separate 2tb HDD (NTFS) and this works fine on Windows. But I want to play the same games that I have already installed on my HDD. All the games is installed using Windows. When using lutris I get a lot of “can’t create file” errors but I can create files in the filemaneger in linux so I have read-write.
I have tried to search online and some say that heroic game launcher is better but that one spits out “program got a serious problem” error.
I use Pop 22.04 jammy AMD Ryzen 7 5700G with Radeon Graphics @ 16x 3.8GHz NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 16GB ram
i have tried Lutris and heroic. i got Age of mythology retold to launch but not read dead redemtion 2.
if you guys need more just ask, i am quite new to linux gaming :D
I can post logs in a moment but really happy if someone can help out a bit.
I just installed the ntfs3g package and it was straight forward. Never faced any error.
Did you install the games on Windows? Have you tried AAA games? How did you run the games? Bottles, lutris, steam, heroic etc?
Lutris. There’s some sym linking to do i forgot. Best to do what others are suggesting.
