Hello,
I've been trying to run a plethora of games with Whiskey, with some running smooth with basically no changes from the default bottle, some required extensive research and random post on reddit told me what to do exactly.
I'm a developer myself and could figure out at least some ropes, but there's basically no guide to debug whatsoever.
As fas as I understand we're basically running wine with options.
Are there any options we can add to startup to debug properly?
I found logs folder, but when game silently crashes log usually have the same couple of warnings as for every app (and the ones that repeat in every second issue in this repository).
Experimenting with given options (installing general DLLs via winetricks, mixing around the switches) give results, but sometimes you're just stuck and if you're the first person trying to run this game on wine + macOS, you basically have no chance to go any further.
It would be great to provide some basics:
how to add wine env variables and the most common ones
what are winetricks, how they work and which ones games usually lack
which OS / sync mode / DXVK enabling option to choose
what are the first steps if game quit / fps is unexpectedly low / some graphics is missing
The DB for how to run a specific game would be even better, but I know it's a tidious work to spin that up.
