Custom scripts

Protontricks has a -c command that allows shell commands to be executed in the installed game's directory. This can be useful for installing game-specific fixes not included with winetricks.

Only run commands you trust! Source code is provided for each script.

mfplat

This script installs mfplat required by some games (eg. Resident Evil 2). To use, run:

protontricks -c "wget https://gist.githubusercontent.com/Matoking/2017eeffc1cee82f4797530c67707437/raw/install_mfplat.sh; chmod +x install_mfplat.sh; ./install_mfplat.sh <ARCH> <EXE_DIR>;" <APPID>

Replace <ARCH> with either 32 or 64 depending on whether the game has a 32-bit or a 64-bit executable.

Replace <EXE_DIR> with the relative path to the directory containing the game's executable. For example, if the game's executable is located in /mnt/SSD/SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/GameName/Binaries/GameName.exe, you'd replace <EXE_DIR> with Binaries. If the EXE is located in the root of the game's installation directory, replace it with . (a dot).
