Welcome to Sega Rally 2 ~ 25th Anniversary Edition. This is the result of many hours of testing and fine-tuning to ensure compatibility with Windows 10 and...
It has install options like 4k and widescreen if you desire. Plus the installer has snappy music from the game
Great find! I had to use teknoparrot to play sega rally. I have to try to get this working on linux . The rally game with the most realistic physics (just not for tarmac) is free btw. The old abandonware richard burns rally was modded quite a bit for that improved and it has vr too now. Nikolay Grayzin uses it to practice for on a racing sim. I think it is like 120gb though. I found an old video of his game vs irl record on the same stage.
I’ve tried through Wine and Lutris, but neither RBR or Sega Rally 2 worked for me. It sucks, because RBR is my jam, it’s the one game that has tempted me to dual boot Windows (that and Disco Elysium which I have yet to play.
I have got it working in the past with a bit of tinkering and while looking for the guide I used, I found a youtube video asking to disregard instructions because rbr_rsf now works with ge-proton-10-22 out of the box (can’t confirm because I am a bit short on space). I finished disco elysium on linux so it worked perfectly for me. I am going to try setting up Sega rally 2 and I will reply with a guide if I find a way to make it work. I couldn’t find much on it yesterday :/
Damn, are you using Steam for these? I’d rather avoid installing Steam if I can, but if there’s no way to get ge-proton-10-22 on Lutris, I guess I’d suck it up for RBR at least. If I recall, I tried Disco through the Steam proton layer and it fidn’t work for me even through there (I’m running MXLinux).
I used steam without configuring the proton version for disco elysium and it ran out of the box(arch). I played rbr through some other launcher with an older proton version and tweaks but that is not necessary now anyway. ge-proton was meant to be used outside of steam or at least that is what I heard but I still use it for some games on steam because it has better compatibility for a lot of games.
Simple way to run it: You can install umu-launcher (it was already in the package manager for me) This is a terminal tool so if you want a gui for it then you will also need to install faugus launcher. It will automatically download proton-ge/umu-proton (any version of proton) when you set it to install any windows application and it lets you tweak it through the gui as well.
I also got sega rally 2 working perfectly in classic mode, no tweaking and umu-proton option (crashes when I install it with the widescreen version though). Most games run out of the box for me without tweaks. Mxlinux and antix is great for old hardware but maybe you need non-free drivers or something from the unstable branch or missing some dependencies that is especially if nothing works at all through proton. The gaming specific distros kind of do better over all with the least hiccups.
Protondb is a handy way to check if a game works with issues and some details on how they configured it. MX Linux also has a non-free linux firmware version apparently installing which may or may not help. You might need 32 bit versions for old games and maybe non free nvidia drivers instead of nouveau if you have an nvidia card.
