I downloaded Fallout 3 through gog.com and as soon as I figured what the hell I was doing, I got it downloaded and playing great. I’m on a Chromebook Plus with an i5 and Iris Xe graphics. When I go to download NV, it prompts me to a message that tells me Wine is preparing a 64 Bit download . Shouldn’t it be 32 Bit?

If it isn’t obvious, I’m very novice but I think I’ll eventually figure it out with some help… so apologies if my terminology or phrasing is off.

NV is 32bit, but it doesn’t matter. It will run in a 64bit environment.

Edit: Poked around a bit for you. Try manually deleting the directory it created then retrying.

Wow. Day one on here and it’s already 1000x more helpful than Reddit. What a piece of crap that platform is now haha. “That game is for windows and even if could get it running, it wouldn’t be playable on a Chromebook” after not reading the body of my post.

Anyway, thank you. I’ll try that today.

You’re welcome. Welcome to the Fediverse!
