How to install Aslain's modpack for World of Warships on Steam
I just spent half an hour trying to figure this out so I thought I'd write it down somewhere in case it helps someone else in the future.
Aslain's modpack contains a whole lot of quality-of-life mods for WoWs, for example Battle Expert (formerly known as Navigator) which shows the exact relative angles between your ship and the enemy's. Almost feels like cheating to me, but Wargaming has endorsed this modpack and it even has a dedicated channel on the official discord server. Theoretically you have the same information without the mod, but it can be difficult to see how a ship is turning or changing speed by just looking at it.
These instructions are for when the game is installed through Steam, which looks like it uses some kind of overlay filesystem. This led to that the game install folder didn't show up for the modpack installer when I tried other methods.
- Install protontricks, I used the version available in Fedora's repos.
Everything you need to know about gaming on Linux
Hi everyone, I just finished writing a guide on everything you need to know in order to game on Linux. It covers Proton (Steam play), using Heroic Launcher (with Wine-GE), and all sorts of tidbits and tips I wish people had told me earlier. I hope this can be useful to someone out there!

Playing Visual Novels on GNU/Linux
cross-posted from: https://lemmy.comfysnug.space/post/138679
We've been working on a guide to help players on all major GNU/Linux distributions play visual novels for the past few weeks. This guide is designed to be used by both beginners and experts, with minimal need to touch the command line.
openSUSE wins the award for "never had to touch the terminal" and "simplest setup instructions", but Fedora is a close second.
While there are a few existing visual novel guides for GNU/Linux around, we've tried to fill in the gaps we noticed. We've put a lot of research into this guide and ensured it is accurate while remaining simple and approachable.
If you're interested, start here!
We have an extensive Troubleshooting section on our Problems page if you're having trouble getting visual novels to work, too.
