Launcher 2.0? #22

Open damccull opened 2 weeks ago

damccull commented 2 weeks ago

I used your fancy nix installer thing with my flake to install Star Citizen, but I noticed it uses the legacy installer. Is there and option to use the new one?

LovingMelody commented 2 weeks ago

I use wine-ge which is not supported, the development branch can install it which uses umu but the branch is updated very slowly and may suddenly break. 2.0 launcher will not be considered as an option until:

1.X.X launcher is not supported (which it will be for quite some time)
the resource consumption is greatly reduced
wine-ge gets updated (not likely considering it hasn't for many months now)

Fair enough. Why this particular version of wine? It has the required patches already? Sorry, I'm a complete wine newbie. Steam usually handles it for me with proton.

Yea, wine 9.5 or newer is needed, I use wine-ge since I still get good performance results out of it, I may consider looking into just using native wine and see how that runs since, wine-ge hasn't received an update in a while.

Pinning issue for feedback, if theres an update on performance, this issue will also be revisited.

Thanks for the info! I'll go do some learning about wine.
