Hello fellow Linux gamers! I have the mentioned problem while using a Lutris fullscreen game (Sims 2). This problem is when i use Lutris' WineGE 8.26 but not when i use the systems Wine 9.0. Sadly my game runs like shit with 9.0. I can't find anything on the internet regarding this problem, except a 3 year old Reddit post that has no comments. Does anybody know how I can possibly fix this?

Go to "game options" for the specific game, then look under "Wine Prefix". That should let you point to a specific prefix.

Yeah I know that, that's what I tried before I made this post. Still can only choose these two versions.
