can't install games #23

Closed treeshateorcs closed 3 years ago

treeshateorcs commented 3 years ago

i've tried about 3-4 different game installers, and i've succeeded with none. it just crashes with

0098:err:module:process_init L"C:\\windows\\system32\\explorer.exe" not found

how do i run installers with this?

edit: then after some time another error message pops up

wl_subsurface@24: error 0: place_above: wl_surface@3 is not a parent or sibling

GDI apps - e.g installers, popups, etc are not supported. Though the few GOG installers I tried did work.You can extract GOG installers using innoextract.

0098:err:module:process_init L"C:\windows\system32\explorer.exe" not found This is just a warning message.

wl_subsurface@24: error 0: place_above: wl_surface@3 is not a parent or sibling

This is an upstream issue with wlroots - https://github.com/swaywm/wlroots/issues/1865. It works in weston based compositors. One of the reasons why GDI apps are not supported.
