TTW Installer Linux/Steam Deck Port

[hwoodiwiss]

Hello,

I've been trying to run the TTW Installer on my Steam Deck, and at current it does not work.

I'm aware that the current installer and the BSASharp Library on which it depends are hosted on github.

I would be interested in porting these both to .NET 6 so that they would be compatible with running on linux, is that something that there would be an appetite for in the TTW project?

[RoyBatty]

Pretty sure other people have installed it already on the steam deck.

[hwoodiwiss]

Ah, yeah, it looks like currently the installer works okay under wine with a few tweaks.

I'm still up for contributing a more official route if that's something that is wanted.

[RoyBatty]

Well it would be difficult if not impossible to translate the pascal source into C#

[hwoodiwiss]

Ah, I've been basing this idea on the source on github, is that no longer current?

[RoyBatty]

That installer hasn't been used since 2.9

[hwoodiwiss]

Ah, right, fair enough, yeah, if the current installer isn't in .NET, then yeah, it can't be ported anywhere near as easily, and probs not by me.

[RoyBatty]

Yeah it's in object pascal.
