Need Help with Installing GTA V Trainers on Arch Linux

-

Hey everyone! I’m trying to get the native trainer or enhanced native trainer working for GTA V on my Arch Linux setup using Heroic. I followed some instructions on GitHub for Rockstar Games, and the game runs fine. I’ve installed ScriptHook V by copying dinput8 and ScriptHookV to the same folder as playgtav.exe, and I also added the ENT folder and ENT.asi there. I’ve configured both winecfg and protontricks to enable dinput8 and ScriptHookV. The game is running well, but when I press F4 to access the trainer, nothing seems to happen. I’m not sure where I went wrong, and I’ve tried setting environment variables, but that didn’t help either. Can anyone assist?

It sounds like you’ve done a lot already! Have you tried installing vcrun2019 in your prefix? Sometimes the game needs that specific version of Visual C++ to properly recognize trainers. You mentioned having vcrun2022 and .net48; they can be good, but some trainers specifically require 2019. Give that a shot and see if it changes anything!

I currently have vcrun2022 and dotnet48 installed. Do you think that’s enough, or should I switch to 2019 for compatibility?
