UO Outlands & WINE, almost, but not working 100%

Will this work in Manjaro?

I vote yes

Thought so, just wanted to be sure. FlatPak is good with no issues right?

Try it and see how far you get, report issues when you find them if they are specific to Manjaro. Bottles is in the AUR and I don’t use flatpak so can’t comment.

Hmmm, I heard the AUR breaks Manjaro a lot, I will just get the FlatPak. Well I downated, no idea how to download, yhought it would just start or take me to the page, nope.

It doesn’t.
Just some AUR packages may not work as expected.
Why?
Because they in turn expect to be used on Arch
(it is called the AUR for a reason …)

Manjaro unstable branch is closest to it.
Manjaro stable may often be too far behind - and the AUR packages may not compile / work for that reason.

The instructions seem clear and easily adaptable to a arch system. Some effort on your part is required to make it work.

I just Downloaded Lutris to try outlands. I emailed the person from the page about where to download bottles, not sure if I missed it. I got no dowload link.

… but you already have Bottles
no?
It’s easily installable.
From the normal repos.

What would you need a download link for it for?

It is just in the AUR, I thought. I found it https://linux.softpedia.com/get/System/Installer-Setup/Bottles-104112.shtml that is a safe place to get it right?
I downloaded Lutris, & all th Op. deps., I can execute the .exe, it appears to have worked & the play button is there. I am in the game, but the UI is not responding to clicks, I will try again when my 4k is repolerized & glossy.

Have you followed the steps in the instructions you mentioned in the original post? There was some configuration required. Other then that no suggestions. I do not understand what the context is of this in the post above:

I have it working in WINE, until the game open, then my clicks get no response.

This tells us as much as the last post. Have you read the guide linked and seen step 9, this might have something to do with getting the program working.

Have you read the game wiki, specifically on getting the game running on linux.
https://wiki.uooutlands.com/Install_UO_on_Linux

The wiki, for example, links to OutlandsSteamDeck/README.md at main · roxya/OutlandsSteamDeck · GitHub where a specific runner in bottles is selected, there must be a reason…

So read up and post results, ask questions etc. Posting ’ it don’t work’ does not get you more help. Put some effort in searching, thinking and trying, this is beginning to look like a endless grind. (pun intended)

It is working until the game loads & the game doesn’t respnd to mouse clicks. So all accept for the none responsive game when it loads, The game opens so I am that far. I do not have Bottles installed, just Lutris with all Op. Deps. I get this far.

Please do not edit your topic title as a cry for help. Reverted.

No, we will not delete your topic. Perhaps if you provide information for us to help you, someone might be able to. You know where the Forum Rules and Wiki are. :wink:

I fot where I am in the game with no error, but the double click seems not to work & the shortcut keys… Lutris keeps saying the .exe doesn’t exist & I have to keep going to the folder & rechoose it. I just stopped messing with it.
