Hey I was trying to set up archipelago to run a Chrono Trigger - Jets of Time randomizer file, and it needs a lua script to run to connect to archipelago. I couldn’t find a single SNES emulator with lua scripting enabled such as SNES9x-rr on windows. I tried just running that through proton but the lua scripts would not function. New to Linux so idk much on compiling shit natively or if I would need dependencies or to add something to wine/proton for lua to work or if there is an app image or something already that I could easily install that I didn’t see with a quick search.

update: Okay, seems maybe with proton can get stuff running but the lua won’t work. Seems I can get it to try and run it, but runs into some issue with a .dll and not being able to find “main” or whatever. Can’t find any flatpack/appimg for a native emulator with a lua injector, and idk if I can install cuz sudo apt doesn’t work on it and idk enough to figure out how I’m supposed to get and compile shit. Soooo, heck.

Edit: forgot to mention incase it matters, running Bazzite 42.

    Nvm, now seems like maybe I can get the windows bizhawk version working but it won’t run to lua script correctly, again probably a “this isn’t windows” issue but, fuck if I know.
