Any possibility to make this mod work on the Steam Deck? (Proton/SteamOS/Linux) #92

I really enjoyed this mod when the game first came out. Ever since 2022 I pretty much only play my Steam games on the Steam Deck. So I just wanted to know if there's any possibility to get this to work on the Steam Deck?

I tried to see if I can get it working myself but no luck on my end unfortunately (I'm a still new to Proton and Linux so I'm not a guru in that regard)

I understand if that's a large ask but I figured I'd ask to see if there can be a way.

@EusthEnoptEron just wanted to say thanks for this awesome mod. It legit was the reason I decided to play the game, otherwise I wouldn't have. So thank you so much.

Glad to hear you enjoyed the mod.

I'm afraid getting it to work with Steam Deck might be ... challenging. I had hoped it would just magically work, but it seems that's not the case.

I'd have to delve into the nitty & gritty of how Wine / Proton translates DLLs and how I can hook into them / find the memory addresses I need, and I don't currently have time or motivation for that. (I've made my multiplayer playthrough, which was the reason I created this mod in the first place, so I am pretty much done with the game.)

I'll close the issue for now, but if anyone wants to take a look, feel free to reopen it. I can also provide any assistance if required.
