A lot of repack installers won't work in Linux, not even with proton. Use the original scene release instead if you can.
I've been installing dodi, elamigos, fitgirl repacks for a while and still have to find one not working. Dunno what repacks are you installing.
I've tried a number of fitgirl ones and had only around a 50% success rate with them.
Yeah fitgirl doesn’t work well with translation layers. In my experience elamigos works the best out of all repackers.
Personally Elamigos works for me but not Fitgirl
i tried many different cyberpunk 2077 repacks from dodi and fitgirl and none would finish installation with wine
Try the jc141 repack. It worked for me. It's a linux repack so I think their script handles the wine stuff.
apparently his repacks are for arch, fedora and debian unstable. no setup provided for ububtu based, so that's a nope then.
Yes. You can make it work but it's just too much work to support it. Gaming needs cutting edge releases.
Check which version wine you are running. It could be the main problem.
I've only had issues with fitgirl repacks i think there's an optimisation they use for low RAM machines that doesn't play well with proton
