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.

I can’t even get this game to work on an actual windows install

Are you trying to run it through stream? I’m a novice but from what I’ve read, that’s probably a part of the problem. Also, the gog version has a lot of kinks and bugs worked out + performance improvement.

Ironically, as I was searching for a solution I came across a satirical Hard Drive article about MIT offering a degree in “installing NV on modern machines” haha.

What issue are you facing there? Can you tell us which GPU and driver you’re using?
