Im trying to install a game through Lutris using the game’s installer and I keep coming across the same error that I can’t really find much information on. It seems to be an issue with dotnet itself or the actual game installer and not WINE though, so I am unsure how to proceed.

Here is the log of the install process.

This part seems to be describing the issue.

Failure processing application bundle. Failed to create directory [Z:\path\to\executable\/home/$USER/.cache/dotnet_bundle_extract\] for extracting bundled files.

Some more details:

  • The game is installed using an installer
  • The game is made with Unity 2021 with a Mono version equivalent to .NET 4.8

Here is what i have tried so far (Updated):

  • Reinstalling Mono in the prefix using WINETRICKS
  • Uninstalling Mono and installing .NET 4.8 using WINETRICKS
  • Editing the register in the WINE prefix to show .NET 4.8 being installed (you can see this in provided logs, but I am unsure if I am doing it correctly)
  • Creating a symlink to the users home directory (whis ‘works’ but it installs DLLs outside of the prefix)

Here is the install script I am using:

--- game_slug: gamename name: GameName year: 2023 user: t3nk3y runner: wine slug: gamename version: GameName - Alpha Test description: notes: "Actual game install will occur on the first run of the game." script: files: - gamenameinstaller: N/A:Please select the GameNameInstaller.exe file game: arch: win64 exe: drive_c/users/$USER/AppData/Local/GameName/Launcher/GameNameInstaller.exe prefix: "$GAMEDIR" installer: - task: description: Creating Wine prefix arch: win64 name: create_prefix prefix: "$GAMEDIR" - task: description: Working around .NET check name: set_regedit path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP\v4\Full key: Release value: 0x00080ea8 type: REG_DWORD - task: description: Launching GameNameInstaller.exe arch: win64 executable: gamenameinstaller name: wineexec prefix: $GAMEDIR wine: UseGLSL: disabled dxvk: true esync: true


I am unsure of what to try next, and any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
