Error 7: Unable to find installation

Post by Serfmaa »

Hi all! Long time since I've posted on the forums that I lost my main account info (serfma) but I was coming back here to ask about installing on linux. Nowadays almost every game I've come across, even "Windows only" has ran on Linux (Bazzite, specifically in my case) fine if not better than Windows. Instead of dual booting to play PR I wanted to install it via Lutris but when launching it throws an Error 7, unable to find installation.

The registry key points correctly to the installation folder and I see no sort of logs within the folders so I decided to come here to ask if perhaps the devs or anyone technically inclined could point me in the right direction?

I've tried running via wine-10.7-staging-tkg, GE Proton, etc to no avail. Is there any specific Windows dependencies that PR/BF2 requires?

We recommend Arch Linux or CachyOS and distro's latest wine-staging build (v10.16 as of this writing). See this thread for details:
