This guide contains extra tips for setting up Reloaded on Linux.
Installing Protontricks via FlatPak
Includes any distribution where FlatPak is available.
To insall Protontricks via FlatPak, we will need Flatseal and Protontricks.
- Flatseal will allow the sandboxed Protontricks to see alternative Steam library locations.
- Protontricks will let you run Reloaded inside the game's sandbox.
These can be installed via a FlatPak supporting Package Manager such as Discover:
After installing, first launch Flatseal:
Scroll through the left column of apps in Flatseal until you're able to find and click on "Protontricks". This will display a configuration list in the right pane:
Scroll down to the "Filesystem" section:
- Enable
All system files.
Close Flatseal.
Lastly add an alias so protontricks can be executed from the terminal:
echo "alias protontricks='flatpak run com.github.Matoking.protontricks'" >> ~/.bashrc
echo "alias protontricks-launch='flatpak run --command=protontricks-launch com.github.Matoking.protontricks'" >> ~/.bashrc
Paste these lines into a terminal window, and press enter.
We enabled full filesystem access for simplicity
You can be more granular if you know what you're doing, but for simplicity we've simply enabled full filesystem access.
The installer requires access to /home and protontricks needs access to Steam library folders.
