Hi fellow Linux users, I just built a new rig and am issues with installing large fitgirl repacks. My specs Ryzen 7 7800x3d Rtx 4070 ti super 32 gigs of ddr5 RAM Linux mint 22.1 Lutris with wine version: ge-8-26x86_64 I am trying to install FFXVI on an SSD with plenty of free space. I can get to about 90% of unpacking before I get an error saying I ran out of memory. I made sure to check the box in the installer to limit RAM use, I also had my system monitor up to monitor it and my RAM usage never got to 100%. Looking at other posts, it seems like using a windows VM is my best option because I have had missing files on other games that successfully installed. Just wanted to see if there’s another solution or if I should just use a windows VM. Thanks!
I had better luck with dodis repacks on Linux. Maybe there is some way to tell wine to use more memory?
May i ask what nvidia driver version linux mint uses, im thinking of giving it a shot but when i installed my 4070 super, only arch and bazzite had recent enough drivers to support my gpu.
this one, OP. just save yourself the bother and get DODI. installs in like a third of the time and personally can’t remember any issues, ever.
FG’s boneheaded compression that saves half a megabyte or whatnot in order to take hours to install and burn kilowatts and then not work half the time is beyond ludicrous.
