How do I play "Mass Effect Legendary Edition" on Zorin OS?

@storm, i just installed steam from the software/store

I didn't touch anything in the Software settings, so I guess FLAT since it's what it's set by default... (so no .deb)

I think you install flat then.

Both of you, try uninstall steam and go for .deb version.

Source in the appstore says flathub indeed

Should I save/move the games before uninstalling Steam or better download them again?

You could try move them (I've never done that before so...), if it doesn't work you can always delete and download again.

I installed the steam.deb and installed the proton, now it does show in steam.

@Storm OMG it works! Thank you so much, been 10 days since Launch Day I couldn't find out why Proton wouldn't allow me to play on version 5.10+. I still don't know why (do you know what changed before version 5.10 and after?), but at least now I don't have to try so many workarounds and waste hours.
So, installing .deb worked.

Flat/Snap is ... how should I put it ... problematic in many ways. So I always go for .deb or PPA's

It wasn't my thread, I hopped into this one since it was Steam/Proton related :slight_smile:

Ah, OK.
I had to scroll up more :stuck_out_tongue:

Hello. I wondering also but in Store Software in Zorin is flat on photo.


that means when installing something is best using .deb packs?

For steam .deb is best. You'll find it at steam homepage.

Ok. In software Zorin I have Steam installation but only flatpak. I cannot choose deb pack from software Zorin

that means i need install from a terminal?

If you download the .deb file from steam homepage, you simple double click it to install it.
