[–] FauxLiving@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago (7 children) If you do and run into any trouble, feel free to DM me. :) permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 7 child comments replies: [–] Almacca@aussie.zone 2 points 5 months ago (6 children) Thanks. I will say, though, that still seems pretty lengthy and complicated to get working. ;) But I guess I only have to do it once. Most of the other mods are simply cars and tracks, which I guess are just drag and drop like in Windows. The only other one that might be an issue is the 2Real traffic/pedestrian mods. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] FauxLiving@lemmy.world 1 point 5 months ago (5 children) I will say, though, that still seems pretty lengthy and complicated to get working. ;) But I guess I only have to do it once. Yeah it is. Though, if you're doing sim racing and also modding a game it isn't an inherently a plug and play situation even in Windows. :P Most of the games I play are just 'buy, click install on Steam, press play'. The only other one that might be an issue is the 2Real traffic/pedestrian mods. It looks like you can run the install.bat file in the wine prefix via protontricks and then copy the csp traffic tool, car pack and traffic/pedestrian.json files in the appropriate folders. You may have to click the 'Try to Fix' button in the taskbar in Practice mode to auto-install the traffic mods, but this seems like something that you have to do on Windows too. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 5 child comments replies: [–] Almacca@aussie.zone 1 point 5 months ago (4 children) Yeah it is.

The drive being formatted as NTFS is the issue. Valve doesn't recommend this with Proton/WINE for reasons. NTFS isn't case sensitive, for example. If you have the space to temporarily move your SteamLibrary elsewhere you can just format the drive to ext4 and move the folder back.
