AOL was 'everywhere' especially in the mid to latter '90's. Their advertising push coupled with so many hours of free Internet access upon installation made them an early titan of Internet service access.

Okay. Do you have Wine installed?

Wine can potentially help resolve the .exe and .NET errors that you’re experiencing.

Did you download it via Snaps or Flatpak?

We’re you able to download the game via Steam? And if so, what method did you use to launch it via Lutris? Did you try launching it by accessing a file?

Try looking in: ~/.steam/steam/SteamApps/common

I don't have BG3 installed, but I have had some weird issues when using Steam lately. Have you tried using Lutris to launch the game?

C'mon peeps...this is Linux Gaming (having fun, playing games and looking for help to get our favorite games to run properly). It's a community focused on information and support - confrontations and PvP should be reserved for "in-game" experiences only ;).

Another update: I installed the game on a newer computer running a different OS, and BG1 is now working as expected.

It’s interesting, I only have a couple of Steam games in my library, but they all respond differently on my two systems - some that didn’t play, now do. And some that worked on the other system, won’t on the new one 🤷‍♂️.

I ran into the same problem with Steam today, and your post caught my attention.

I had been playing Carcassonne without any issues when I tried to launch it today and began receiving DirectX errors. Trying different Proton versions didn’t work for me either.

I’m running an i7 11th gen on openSUSE with a GeForce RTX 3050 with similar errors to yours.

On a semi-related note, the Hale-Bopp comet was an amazing event to witness.

Actually, you made a claim without any explanatory information, and people (such as myself) were seeking clarification.

So, you're making an assertion that you cannot validate or prove.

Next time, try asking a question first if you are uncertain about something instead of leading with a statement that could be calumnious.

I'm running LibreWolf unmodified on a Linux box, and this is my result using a site that checks this information.
