Cyberpunk 2077: Add a diagnostic for running REDmod when we can't automate it #2109

Open Pickysaurus opened 1 month ago

Pickysaurus commented 1 month ago

Improvement

Currently

Users on Heroic Launcher (Linux) do not benefit from automatically running REDmod deployment due to technical limitations of the WINE implementation.

We want

To surface a diagnostic where REDmod needs to be run but we could not run it automatically. This may need an accompanying help page with manual instructions.

Supporting Information

(Include any supporting screenshots etc to support the above)

Design

(Any designs to required for this feature)

Note: as mentioned here https://github.com/Nexus-Mods/NexusMods.App/issues/1915#issuecomment-2304179034, Heroic has some capability to deploy redmods automatically on its own.

Since 2.13.

OTTOMH, I can't recall if it is an experimental feature that users need to enable or something that is available by default.

Either way, perhaps this should be taken into account in any user-facing instructions?
