Linux Visual Novel Manager: version 0.5.3 released

LVNM (Linux VN Manager) has been released in version v0.5.3.

LVNM is a tool for managing and launching visual novels on Linux with enhanced compatibility features.

This release adds emulation support: under settings -> emulation, users can add an AppImage or CLI command for each emulator, which creates a fake prefix selectable per game in the sidebar. The core GameRunner has also been refactored into a launcher_base with separate sub-launchers (Wine, emulation, etc.), making it easier to add new features or potentially port the launcher to other operating systems in the future.

Adds emulation support:

  • In settings -> emulation -> Add the appimage or cli command for each emulator, it will create a fake prefix for the platform that you can select in the game sidebar.
  • in the game entry add the iso, rom, etc in the game path, and in prefix choose the platform of the emulator.
  • RPCS3 requires the eboot bin file, example: /home/deck/games/BLJM61043/PS3_GAME/USRDIR/EBOOT.BIN or game ID %RPCS3_GAMEID%:BLJM61043 or directly BLJM61043 should also work.
  • All other features should still work, for more info: https://github.com/uunniiblog/linux-vn-manager-lvnm/wiki/Emulation

The core GameRunner has been refactored into game launchers: launcher_base and sub launchers: wine launcher, emulation launcher, etc. This should make easier to implement new stuff or even port the launcher to other OS in the future.
