Anybody know how to play pirated Windows games on Linux? I recently installed Lubuntu (22.04.2 Jammy Jellyfish) on my ancient laptop and all the guides I can find and trying out Lutris only seem to apply to “legit” copies bought from the official sources.
Is it even possible or will I have to do dualboot when I install Linux on my gaming desktop?
What did you do when the error logs say “wrong or missing environment variables”? I’m having that error a LOT
I don’t remember running into this issue myself, but the error is clear enough that I’d know where to start. If there are environment variables set, remove them one by one until the game starts. If there are none set, or if step one didn’t help, go into protondb and see what flags the others are using to get the game running.
Generally, when encountering any sort of issue, trying a different runner can also already solve the issues. It really is a hit or miss process, and in some cases, a game will simply not run at all.
