Hi, been playing since live and keen to get it going on Linux as I'm tired of the AIslop in Windows.

I'm trying to install it on Pop_OS with the Cosmic desktop, using the installer from https://lutris.net/games/warhammer-onli ... reckoning/

Whilst it starts installing, after a while it gives me the error "Command Exited with Code 256".

The debug log is as follows:

https://pastebin.com/WpL5FqTj

Do you know what might be the issue? Thank you.

Did you download the zip file then set it as the installer in lutris manually?

Code: Select all

Started initial process 61690 from /home/martijn/.local/share/lutris/runners/wine/wine-ge-8-26-x86_64/bin/wine /home/martijn/Downloads/RoRInstaller-December2024.zip
This makes me think you used the zip file as the installer. It's not - you need to extract the files from the zipped folder and use the .exe file in there as the installer.

Thank you! That seems to solve the problem. So obvious, but literally just installed Linux as a test and never used Lutris before.

I have a strange issue with RoR on Manjaro.
I managed to install game successfully. With "launch game" checkbox true i finished instalation. Game successfully patched, i managed to login. Zero colour distortion, nice FPS. Only problem is that i had "disable touchpad during typing" and had no addons installed. So i exit the game, fix touchpad options, downloaded all my addons. And here starts the problem. Lutris refuses to start launcher. Zero errors or failures in logs.

open a command window and start lutris by adding -d (for debug). lutris -d

Then try running the game. Then copy paste the output from the command window into chatgpt and see what it says.

That you see the launcher pop up but it doesn't start patching is a common issue. Just stop with lutris and start again until the launcher starts patching. That's an issue of the launcher. The game runs perfectly fine and stable from linux. Im using debian with liquorix kernel.

It randomly fixes itself, just need to start it from Games tab instead of launching from Lutris. Super inconsistent and frustrating.

If the consistency is what you are after, you might try to launch the game via Steam instead of Lutris, might help your case
