FitGirl only repacks; he doesn't defeat Denuvo. The only crackers within the last twelve months or so to crack Denuvo have been MKDEV and EMPRESS, both of whom are no longer active in the scene.

I used to torrent Linux ISOs, but lately I have been using the network image of Tumbleweed on a USB stick and installing over t'internet.

From a Linux user's point of view, Epic refuses to support Linux. They also refuse to support their own games using EAC on Linux (via Proton) despite EAC being Linux-compatible.

EDIT: Grammar.

I hope AirVPN can still stay in business. I also hope that other governments don't start getting ideas.

I've been using AirVPN for quite a while and they are reliable and very Linux-friendly. The Linux GUI (Eddie) is easy to use, too.

My dad was driving automatic Jags back in the late 1970s, but he did work in the motor trade. I am seeing more and more automatics around but I still think manual is king (at least in the UK) for the time being. If nothing else, you can save some fuel driving an auto!

I use grip, generally.

I'm not familiar with Macs, but are you able to download the source and compile your own version?

Agreed, I have my jackett daemon wired up to qbittorrent and all is good!

They've been around for a while. They often release Linux and Mac games, and I think they might be affiliated with Razor.

Well, you do you, but I'd give that a go just to remove it from the list of possible problems.

For my needs, I use qBittorrent with jackett. Both excellent tools!

Have you opened a port in your firewall?

Someone taking the title of this community literally ;-)

Yes, rutracker is safe. In particular Kron4ek is a trusted repacker. You can also download games from certain IRC channels which is much quicker but requires some setting up.

EMPRESS is actually Voksi in a dress.

They cracked Denuvo on Fe recently. Granted that is a Unity3D game so the modular approach makes it slightly easier to crack.

Rutracker has a forum dedicated to Windows games pre-packed with a wine runner. EDIT: Nothing to do with Fitgirl.

I'm not sure what problem you are having when you say 'nothing works'. I've installed several FG repacks over the years including one only a couple of weeks ago. Open and terminal and cd to the directory that contains your FG download, then:

1. export WINEPREFIX=$HOME/.wine_gamename
2. winetricks -q dxvk xact xinput vcrun2022 win10
3. winetricks -q vkd3d corefonts win10
4. wine setup.exe
5. cd installdirectory
6. wine gamename.exe

I separate the winetricks lines as sometimes winetricks gets overwhelmed if you call two many functions. I can assure you that this does work, though the repacks sometimes take ages to install. Personally I use rutracker as my source as the games come pre-made with wine.

Yes, I still use IRC for things like games. You can often get a much faster download than via other means.
