How to Set Up the Bare Minimum to Mod Fallout 4 on Linux

Oleh Conundroy

This guide was made with Debian based distros in mind but in theory should work with anything but that. This guide expects you to have an intermediate grasp of Linux: know how to use and install programs with the terminal, able to understand online installation guides.

I am not a pro Linux user by any means, even this guide had to go through a phase of trials and errors before I got around to making it, so if anything the guide probably isn't even the definitive way to set up modded Fallout 4. If any problems arise, I'll try to help anyway I can, but you'd have better luck, and honestly a better answer, if you brought your question to a game equivalent forum of your respective distro.

Step 1: WINE & protontricks

Step 1: Install WINE (stable branch, just in case) at their website: https://wiki.winehq.org/Download
Step 2: Install winetricks using the terminal: https://github.com/Winetricks/winetricks#installing
Step 3: Install protontricks using the terminal: https://simpler-website.pages.dev/html/2021/1/protontricks/

Step 2: Mod Organizer 2 for Linux

Install MO2 for Linux here: https://github.com/rockerbacon/modorganizer2-linux-installer
The MO2 directory path should be something like this: .../SteamLibrary/steamapps/compatdata/377160/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Local/ModOrganizer

Install F4SE how you normally would on Windows, launch the game through F4SE launcher in MO2. Once you're certain F4SE or any mod you've installed is working, we can now move on to installing VC Redistributables 2015-2022

Step 3: VC Redistributables 2015-2022

Download the x86 and x64 installers here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-US/cpp/windows/latest-supported-vc-redist?view=msvc-170 (or Google the link yourself). Input these command lines into the terminal:

protontricks 377160 win7 protontricks 377160 shell

At this point, if the terminal changed directory to compatdata folder then you're in the clear. Proceed with these commands:

wine <Path to x86 installer here>/VC_redist.x86.exe wine <Path to x86 installer here>/VC_redist.x64.exe

eg:

wine /home/conundroy/Downloads/VC_redist.x86.exe wine /home/conundroy/Downloads//VC_redist.x64.exe

For each installation prompt, proceed how you normally would on Windows.

Once installation is complete, the best way to test if it's working is to install Buffout 4, run the game via MO2 and exit then check if a log was created, the log file file can be found in .../SteamLibrary/steamapps/compatdata/377160/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/My Documents/My Games/Fallout4/F4SE/Buffout4.log

If so, then congratulations, installation was successful, and you can now mod Fallout 4 on Linux to your heart's content

What is this comments section lol.

Imagine being a Microsoft loyalist...

You guys do know that Steam has been developing the Linux compatibility layer, and many games run better on Linux than on Windows?

I sure do love being in control of my computer, it's very liberating.

Interesting. I might try this sometime. Thanks. I once installed Oblivion on my linux laptop just to see if it could be done, and ended up finishing the game on it.
