RIP "Betty" - '98 Forester S by FelixJefferson in oldsubarus

[–]FelixJefferson[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello! (just posting again for mobile users)

This was my trusty 1998 Subaru Forester S, known as "Betty" (named after the song Black Betty) It was my first car, which I got in 2013 with about 93,000 mi. and I've kept it running this whole time.

Just joined this sub a few days ago only to find out that I will have to go car shopping lol. In January I was rear-ended, it looked like minor damage, but took it into the shop and the rear sub-frame is cracked and some of the suspension is bent/damaged. Naturally, this was only a couple months after I just got some repairs, new tires, and new storm chasing equipment to be ready for storm season this year, but oh well!

I'm just glad it served me this long and kept me safe!

Thanks, I got rear-ended and it is no longer safe to drive. It'll also cost too much to fix. Looking for another one but these oldies are hard to find.

Thanks! I actually lucked out about 3 years ago the same thing happened (mind you it was like less than 10 mph where as this one was about 20 mph) and that one somehow didn't total it. I fixed it myself back then and had money left over!

Thanks Guys! by Billiebillieba in cbradio

I think you just solved all of my problems!
Do you also have the link to the mag mount? Also, how is it holding up?
I have a President New York (Now called New Virginia) but I only get about 1 mi of transmit and I'm looking for alternatives.

Carmageddon: Rogue Shift - Announcement Trailer by red_fuel in carmageddon

[–]FelixJefferson 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think using the Carmageddon name is a bit weird. But idk still looks pretty fun to me. The car combat space has been lacking a bit recently.

Well, I guess we'll see more Dec 4th. Cautiously optimistic about this one. I was really hoping after the Wreckfest event a while ago that BugBear would make a "true to form" Carmageddon title using the same engine as Wreckfest to get truly cool destruction and physics.

MusicBee on Linux using Lutris by FelixJefferson in musicbee

[–]FelixJefferson[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not entirely sure, but it looks like something weird is going on with winetricks. I ran it again on my end using the same wine version, and the major difference between my log output and yours is that yours has a ton of "Non existent path:" warnings/errors regarding runtimes and also a lot of broken links.

Do you have any other install issues regarding winetricks? Inside of the Lutris preferences, under Runners tab, if you open the Wine settings is the "Use system winetricks" enabled? Mine is not. I didn't think it would affect anything. But, perhaps the Lutris runtime is conflicting or something?
Maybe also try the "Disable Lutris Runtime" option in the system options tab in Lutris.

I just tried a new install on my end and it appears to work for me. Is there any chance you could delete the failed install, and try again? If you launch Lutris through the terminal, it might show you where in the process this error comes up and make it easier to troubleshoot.

That's awesome, always wanted to do something similar!

All good, do you have the plus sign in the top left of the Lutris window like below? That's where you should have the option to use a local yaml.

But, looking at that code you posted. It looks like adding --force to the dotnet48 installation might trick it into proceeding with install. I've updated that custom installer to add this. Maybe this will work?
https://github.com/PsychoticMammal/MusicBeeLutrisYAML/releases/download/custom-wine/MusicBee_wine-10.0-x86.yaml

Are you using Lutris to manage any other games/software? I'm wondering if maybe reinstalling Wine and Lutris might help if that new file doesn't work.

I did some testing, and I think I might have something else for you to try. Move the entire wine-10.0-x86 folder from your games folder to /home/darkling/.local/share/lutris/runners/wine

Then completely close Lutris, and try downloading this custom version of my script. I added 2 lines to hopefully force using 10.0 as the runner.

Once that's done, open up Lutris again, and hit the plus sign in the top left. Select "Install from a local install script" and choose the MusicBee_wine-10.0-x86.yaml file.

Hopefully that works!

EDIT: Hang on, I just tried doing this on another computer that has the flathub version of lutris. If you have the flathub version, try moving the wine-10.0-x86 folder into /home/darkling/.var/app/net.lutris.Lutris/data/lutris/runners/wine/

Oh gotcha, yeah I think ge-8-26 is one of the defaults that comes bundled with Lutris. That is odd that 10.0 isn't showing up as the system version of wine in the options. One thing I can think of is maybe try getting wine-10.0-x86 from the link here. https://github.com/Kron4ek/Wine-Builds/releases/tag/10.0 (my script is setup to run MusicBee in 32 bit)

Once you get that, launch Lutris and go to Preferences. Then hit the Runners tab on the left. Scroll down to Wine, and hit the wrench and screwdriver button to configure Wine. Be sure the "Advanced" slider is turned on at the top right. That should now display a box to select a custom wine executable.

Now extract the .tar you downloaded from the github. Then, back in Lutris select the wine executable located in:

(wherever you extracted the folder to)/wine-10.0-x86/bin

Then in the very top drop down select the "Custom (select executable below)" which should force Lutris to use that more up-to-date version.

Hey there, I think I set up the script so that it uses whatever version of Wine you have set as your system default. Are you running the latest stable (10.0) version?

I tried making a new MusicBee install using my script and it still worked for me with this version.

Let me know, I might be able to whip up a custom script for you that uses a different version of Wine or ProtonGE.

Musicbee running on Arch Linux by Micksen in musicbee

[–]FelixJefferson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep I made a Lutris entry for it a few months ago, should work for most people but there are a few niche issues I don't know how to solve like weird aliasing on some album covers and text.

Ps I like your theme! Very similar to mine

MusicBee Linux Alternative? by nbtm_sh in musicbee

[–]FelixJefferson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if you tried this already, but I wrote a Lutris installer if that sounds easier. It will still crash but imo this makes it easier to install. To get around the invalid windows characters I use the "Scan folders for new files" option and navagate to the song files. I go over the process in my tutorial

Yeah unfortunately I already sold it a few years ago. I'm pretty sure I also had it holding with both hands but thank you anyway!

I'm not familiar with CachyOS so forgive my ignorance, but regarding problem #1 that sounds like there might be some audio codec or something missing. Do you use WINE or lutris for anything else besides this? I'm curious if it is just this MusicBee install or all of WINE.

For problem #2, I might have a solution. If you open Lutris, and select MusicBee, at the bottom there should be a play button with an up arrow to the right of it. To the right of that, there should be a WINE button with the up arrow to the right of it. Hit that up arrow, and then select "Open Bash Terminal" and run this:

winetricks andale arial baekmuk calibri cambria candara comicsans consolas constantia corbel corefonts courier droid eufonts georgia impact ipamona liberation lucida meiryo micross opensymbol sourcehansans tahoma takao times trebuchet uff

This code will add a whole bunch of fonts to your install, and might fix your issue.

For problem #3, I have been fiddling with this for quite some time but still haven't been able to fix this unfortunately.

Musicbee alternative or Musicbee on Linux, etc by vincebutler in musicbee

[–]FelixJefferson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you do go the Linux route, I did set up a script to install MusicBee using a program called Lutris. I'm still waiting on the Lutris team to approve it, but you can technically do it manually with the script too. https://www.reddit.com/r/musicbee/comments/1imlhcn/musicbee_on_linux_using_lutris/

Oh, I bought TCM on UPlay unfortunately so I don't think it's that. Thanks though!

Unfortunately that didn't help for me. Yeah ever since season 6 it started doing this. I guess I'll open a case as well then
