I downloaded Fallout 3 through gog.com and as soon as I figured what the hell I was doing, I got it downloaded and playing great. I’m on a Chromebook Plus with an i5 and Iris Xe graphics. When I go to download NV, it prompts me to a message that tells me Wine is preparing a 64 Bit download . Shouldn’t it be 32 Bit?
If it isn’t obvious, I’m very novice but I think I’ll eventually figure it out with some help… so apologies if my terminology or phrasing is off.
NV is 32bit, but it doesn’t matter. It will run in a 64bit environment.
Edit: Poked around a bit for you. Try manually deleting the directory it created then retrying.
Wow. Day one on here and it’s already 1000x more helpful than Reddit. What a piece of crap that platform is now haha. “That game is for windows and even if could get it running, it wouldn’t be playable on a Chromebook” after not reading the body of my post.
Anyway, thank you. I’ll try that today.
You’re welcome. Welcome to the Fediverse!
It looks like an issue with the premade Lutris installer/config package.
Can you try downloading the installer from GOG and install manually in Lutris via the “Install a Windows Game from an executable” (the + button on the top left) option?
There you can choose “Windows XP 32bit” as an Installer preset, this should provide the best compatibility.
