Î build an appimage for yad (for x86_64) and it looks like it work not so bad, there are some find issues but I'm not sure it's related to my appimage (I didn't test on my desktop that have yad).

yad-appimage.zip

$ whereis yad
yad:
$ unzip yad-appimage.zip
Archive:  yad-appimage.zip
  inflating: Yad-313ada9-x86_64.AppImage 
# Not needed normally but just in case the executable bit is lost
$ chmod +x Yad-313ada9-x86_64.AppImage 
$ yad=./Yad-313ada9-x86_64.AppImage $(pwd)/stl compat add

In steam I use this command as run

# Replace the yad appimage path and the stl path
yad="/home/user/GITS/steamtinkerlaunch/Yad-313ada9-x86_64.AppImage" /home/user/GITS/steamtinkerlaunch/stl %command%

I just did a test on CrossCode (it's a native game). Maybe it would need some test for Windows games...

Nice, this probably comes in handy for debian users, so thanks!

kadogo commented 4 years ago

I added informations on https://github.com/frostworx/steamtinkerlaunch/issues/98#issuecomment-720107680 about the AppImage that is stored with Dockerfile and script if the AppImage file not sound trustfull.

frostworx commented 4 years ago

Closing here. Obviously missing op feedback and #98 is still pinned

I need help.

I tried running the commands but it said:

user@debian:~$ yad=./Yad-313ada9-x86_64.AppImage $(pwd)/stl compat add bash: /home/user/stl: File or directory not found

What am I doing wrong?

my current yad version is: 0.40.0 (GTK+ 3.24.38)

Unable to use SteamTinkererLaunch for days now.

sonic2kk commented 10 months ago

Did you download STL and put it into that path? Also, you can install STL using Pacstall on Ubuntu and derivatives.

Make sure you understand what commands are doing before you attempt to use a program like SteamTinkerLaunch. Blindly running commands from a 3-year-old issue is not a good idea.

The bundled Yad version sounds very old and likely you can just install STL from Pacstall, or do a manual install and install a Yad Appimage following the commands on the STL wiki.
