ok, so i found issue:

beta had a bug that made so it couldnt migrate to new config structure - so it coudnt load it and crashed.

it was fixed in 2.0.0 (that i just pushed), and i discovered that first downgrading to 1.16.9-1, launching it, and then upgrading to 2.0.0 (non beta) fixes this.

so if you were on beta.1 or beta.2 build, downgrade to 1.16.9-1 first

With Fallout 3 I get the error of being unable to discover the game or point to the proper folder because the plugins is looking for Data/fallout3.esm as a requirement to verify that the selected folder is the proper. But since Linux is Case sensitive Fallout3.esm with a capital "F" is not valid and thus fails to set the proper filepath.

I manually edited the Fallout 3 bundled plugin index.js to change the "fallout3.esm" to "Fallout3.esm"

Furthermore once I was able to set the filepath and load into the Fallout 3 game section of Vortex. I was met with the error of Vortex being unable to find Fallout.ini or Falloutprefs.ini as it still look in usr/atomictem/Documents/My Games even though the ini files are not created there.

I install the GOG version of Fallout 3 through Heroic Game Launcher. So the INI files under Heroic Launchers Prefixes for Fallout 3 /home/atomictem/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/default/Fallout 3 Game of the Year Edition/drive_c/users/atomictem/Documents/My Games/Fallout3/ .

I have the same issue as Plexxl. Firstly it complains that I'm opening version 1.0.0 when I previously ran 1.16.9, and if I continue, I get the same error

@Tymon3310: The SDK is declared as a make dependency. That means when installing the package it is considered an unused dependency once the build is finished. So when removing orphans the SDK will be uninstalled, at which point the application doesn't work any more. The correct thing to do is to add the runtime as a dependency, because the SDK is only needed to build the package, but the runtime is required to run the application.

@Nex_isDumb gamebyro is windows-only for now. Also i considired it, but we need SDK when compiling it, so why add runtime as well?

@Plexxl i forgot to push my changes, sorry

pushed now

Hey, you stated that you pushed the 2.0.0_beta.2, but this package is still using 1.16.9

I'm getting an error where Vortex cannot find the Gamebryo plugin. I remember also seeing that the Gamebryo plugin was getting skipped or something when it was compiling through the yay installation. If I look in the Extensions page I can see that "Gamebryo Archive Check" and "Gamebryo Plugin Indexlock" are failing. Also, I know it was already suggested, but I also suggest adding dotnet-runtime-9.0 as dependency.
