@ -69,22 +69,5 @@ If you buy addons directly from a developer, it will be likely that you will be
|
||||
executable. These installers cannot be directly run with Wine as this will not use with Wine prefix for Flight
|
||||
Simulator.
|
||||
|
||||
To make using executable installers easier, you should install
|
||||
[Protontricks](https://github.com/Matoking/protontricks#readme) as this will allow you to run installers under
|
||||
Flight Simulator's Wine prefix.
|
||||
|
||||
Some Desktop Environments will be able to run the file directly in Protontricks if you can right-click the installer
|
||||
and open it with `Protontricks Launcher` and then select `Microsoft Flight Simulator` as the Wine prefix.
|
||||
|
||||
If you do not have the option to run Protontricks Launcher, you'll have to manually run it in the terminal with
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
protontricks 1250410 --gui
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Then ignore the warnings, click Ok on `Select the default wineprefix`, then select `Run explorer`, which will pop up a
|
||||
window for Flight Simulator's Wine directory, where you'll need to navigate through Linux's directory (with the drive
|
||||
that has `/`), where you can find the executable and run it.
|
||||
|
||||
This is also useful if you want to run certain applications installed later down the line inside `compdata`, or you can
|
||||
find the uninstallers in the Protontricks GUI.
|
||||
The easiest way to deal with these installer is to use Protontricks, where you can follow the guide
|
||||
[here](msfs/protontricks) on how to use it.

# Protontricks
|
||||
|
||||
[Protontricks](https://github.com/Matoking/protontricks#readme) is a wrapper for running Winetricks commands, which is
|
||||
designed for Proton. This makes running executables for Flight Simulator much easier.
|
||||
|
||||
## Installation
|
||||
|
||||
Installing Protontricks should be quite simple, as there are multiple methods of installing it depending on your
|
||||
distribution. You can find the documentation for installing it on their GitHub repository
|
||||
[here](https://github.com/Matoking/protontricks#installation).
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
|
||||
### Protontricks Launcher
|
||||
|
||||
Some Desktop Environments will be able to run the file directly in Protontricks if you can right-click the installer
|
||||
and open it with `Protontricks Launcher`
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
And then select `Microsoft Flight Simulator` as the Wine prefix
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
### Terminal
|
||||
|
||||
If you do not have the option to run Protontricks Launcher, you'll have to manually run it in the terminal with
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
protontricks 1250410 --gui
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Ignore all the warnings that will pop up, as this will not affect the installation.
|
||||
|
||||
Once the Winetricks window pops up, OK on `Select the default wineprefix`
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Then select `Run explorer` and click OK
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Which will pop up a window for Flight Simulator's Wine directory, where you'll need to navigate through Linux's
|
||||
directory (with the drive that has `/`), where you can find the executable and run it.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
### Uninstalling Applications
|
||||
|
||||
The easiest way to uninstall addons/applications would be to run Protontricks in the [terminal](#terminal) and instead
|
||||
of selecting `Run explorer`, select `Run uninstaller`
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
This will open up a window where you can uninstall other addons/applications you have installed for Flight Simulator
|
||||
