How can I explain a friend of mine how Wine works?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 15. November 2024 - 19:11

He thinks Wine is an emulator, and I explain that Wine doesn't emulate an OS, but it uses the an implementation of the Windows libraries and translates those instructions to ones that Linux understands, but he still thinks that is emulation, is there a better way to explain how Wine and compatibility layers in general works to him and why that is not emulation?

Some games think my 8bitdo Ultimate C wired controller right stick is the triggers

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 15. November 2024 - 17:05

I have an 8bitdo Ultimate C wired controller that's been working fine on Debian with just about every program I've used it for. Recently I installed Heroic Games Launcher, but every game I play from there (but not the launcher itself) seem to think right stick down is RT and right stick up is LT. Nothing seems to trigger the right stick movement, although pressing it down as a button still works. I thought I'd just use AntiMicroX to remap the controller to the correct keyboard controls for the game, however AntiMicroX also has the same problem. I then added the game to Steam and launched it from there. Exact same problem. Every other program that I've tried works just fine, it's just AntiMicroX and games from Heroic that have this problem. All the games I have on Heroic are from Epic, in case that makes any difference.

Running ASMLauncher.exe via Wine & Lutris?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 15. November 2024 - 14:49

I’ve tried everything to get ASMLauncher.exe working with Wine and Lutris. Installing dotnet472 helped it opens now, but there’s no text showing up. Everything is blank, and if I click on anything, the launcher crashes. Any ideas on how to fix this?
This also happens for ASM2Launcher.

I'm currently using Wine 9.21 Staging. I've also tried older Wine versions and Proton, but no luck.
