Hi guys! I am changing distro and am kinda settling on KDE-Neon (ubuntu based), as this was pretty reliable for me back in the day. So far it’s been all great, but I’m wondering why Lutris (which came pre-configured and untouchable in a way in Nobara) won’t detect additional proton installs. I’m using ProtonPlus with Lutris chosen, and I have installed for example Proton-EM. I can see ProtonPlus did download and add a folder on my user:

/home/my-user/.local/share/lutris/runners/proton/

However this doesn’t seem to get Lutris to show it. I only get wine-ge-8.26, Proton-GE Latest and the system Wine. Why is Lutris not catching the Proton-EM? What should I do?

Thanks!

    do you have the flatpak version of Lutris installed by chance? If yes, the correct path would be:

    ~/.var/app/net.lutris.Lutris/data/lutris/runners/proton/

        You can select the folder. It recognizes the installed versions. You can even install it in steam.

          Thanks. I meant I don’t want to choose the incorrect folder, as this seems to be an important distinction they’re trying to make. I believe I have read the folder structure varies depending on where the wine/proton is installed.

          So…which folder does your protonup-qt install to? I understand it should show it on the UI? Mine for Lutris auto-chooses the wine folder. But Lutris doesn’t see it.

    If you have Steam installed, try putting them in ~/.local/share/Steam/compatilitytools.d.
