#!/bin/bash

# Based on https://www.protondb.com/app/72850#k9xSkVusfH
# but using winetricks instead of protontricks
# and https://www.protondb.com/app/72850#jwiZDBGdfF
# to install xact through winetricks cli

sudo apt install winetricks

skyrim_classic_steam_id="72850"

cd "~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/$skyrim_classic_steam_id/"

# This will install xact through winetricks
WINEPREFIX=$PWD/pfx winetricks xact

# This command below will open winetricks GUI. You will
# need to select:
# "use default wine prefix" > winecfg > libraries tab
# Then mark xaudio2_6 and xaudio2_7 as only native.
#
# An extra explanation about native and builtin libraries:
# DLLs are libraries that are loaded during code execution.
# Wine may provide different versions of certain DLLs,
# which are named "Builtin DLL". But you can choose to use
# the original Windows DLL by using the "Native" option.
