I was talking to my dad yesterday and he talked about how he dual booted windows and Linux in his college days. I immediately left to download Ubuntu, I feel so dumb for forgetting it’s an option. I literally only use windows so I can play Fortnite with friends. PSA: you can have both Linux and Windows, or you can use a vm in Linux. Be (mostly) free from Microsoft’s clammy hands.
i dual boot bc of the adobe software i use for work and wine/proton doesn’t work with the shit ton of skyrim mods I play with. straight up crashes.
re: Skyrim, could just be that some SKSE mod you’re using needs some newer .net runtime or similar
could also be not enough vram (even if you have enough ram wine/proton could have it’s vram allowance set too low)
If you don’t already have one get a crashlogger, for SkyrimSE 1.5.97 I would recommend .NET Script Framework (and use SSE Engine Fixes skse64 preloader instead of DLL Plugin Loader)
If you already knew about all this and still having issues then don’t mind me
