An Anime Game launcher for Linux with automatic patching fixing detection of Linux/Wine and telemetry disabling

Overview


You could also try the GTK branch



Please don't link to this repository

We understand you want to help people run An Anime Game on Linux. The issue is, the more people know of the tools involved in it, the higher the chances The Anime Game Company will notice them, and then fix the flaws that let us do the needful.

While sharing in your self-managed chat services and through private messaging is fine, we humbly ask that you refrain from publically sharing links to this repository, or to any of the tools involved.

Or share them and ruin it for the dozens of Linux players. It's up to you.

If you're going to share it anyway

Do what you must, but we would respectfully request that you try to label the game as "An Anime Game" instead of the actual name of the game, to avoid search engine parsing.

Flatpak support

To install the launcher via flatpak you will first have to make sure that you have flathub's remote installed

flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo

After installing flathub's remote you install launcher.moe's remote

NOTE: You can install the repo on a per user base by appending --user after --if-not-exists (This is especially useful if on Steam Deck)

flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists launcher.moe https://gol.launcher.moe/gol.launcher.moe.flatpakrepo

Now the only thing remaining is to install the launcher

flatpak install launcher.moe com.gitlab.KRypt0n_.an-anime-game-launcher

Some additional configuration is possible when using the flatpak. For info about this, see this page

Chinese version

To use Chinese version of the game make sure that you have

server: cn

field in your config.yaml file (settings -> launcher folder). If your system uses the Chinese language - then it should be selected automatically. If not, then close the launcher, replace server: global with server: cn, and run it again. After that launcher will download the Chinese version of the game and the patch

    Question to the issue are there some special settings to run under this mode in the launcher settings currently set to whatever default settings are.

  • [Feature Request]: Distribute flatpakref file for easier install

    [Feature Request]: Distribute flatpakref file for easier install

    What the feature is suppose to do

    A .flatpakref file contains a reference to a Flatpak on a repository, and allows for adding all required repositories in one go. The user experience of a .flatpakref is that it is opened by the app store (GNOME Software, Discover) as the "about page" for the application.

    Describe the reason behind the request

    This is simpler than the commands listed, and would allow the flatpak to be listed in the Releases page.

    Oh, I almost forgot: a flatpakref can contain a signing key, which makes installing the program safer.

    Distro

    SteamOS Beta on Steam Deck

    Installation Type

    Flatpak

    Describe the issue

    When trying to install the game on the Steam Deck (beta channel if that matter) I got the following error:

    error: The application com.gitlab.KRypt0n_.an-anime-game-launcher/x86_64/master requires the runtime org.gnome.Platform/x86_64/42 which was not found

    It was working before but it seems it's not working anymore. I also reproduce the issue on my Arch desktop PC.

    Thank you in advance.

    Reproduction Steps

    Try to install the game Flatpak on an up to date Steam Deck on the beta channel using:

    flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists --user launcher.moe https://gol.launcher.moe/gol.launcher.moe.flatpakrepo

    flatpak install launcher.moe com.gitlab.KRypt0n_.an-anime-game-launcher --user

    Installation Type

    Describe the issue

    I use i3, (using picom or not doesn't matter here), when I play the fullscreen game in i3's another workspace, no mouse cursor visible most of the time since I use xbox wireless controller, if I switch focus to other program such as web browser in another workspace, the mouse cursor is invisible, I have to do something to the focused window to make the mouse cursor visible again such as switching focus to a third workspace where GI is not in and switching focus back, or togging the focused window floating on and off.

    This issue is annoying since I do this a lot like switching focus to the web browser searching for something.

    Reproduction Steps

    I'm not sure other people can reproduction this.

    Just asking if other people have this issue as well or know how to fix it. Thanks.

    I see the patch repos in ~/.local/share/anime-game-launcher/config.json shows:

      }
    

    I could browse these 2 repos in my browser. I also tried deleting ~/.local/share/anime-game-launcher/.cache.json, or deleting the whole ~/.local/share/anime-game-launcher/ folder.

    However, I could download the patch using same appimage version, on my old laptop, which is running Pop OS. Which indicate that it is not a network issue?

    Reproduction Steps

    Just executing the appimage.

  • [Feature Request]: Add some settings

    [Feature Request]: Add some settings

    What the feature is suppose to do

    [Translated by Google]

    I hope, in the settings can add the following options:

    1. Use the system's Wine or customize the location of Wine
    2. Use the system's DXVK or customize the location of DXVK
    3. Set the location of the wine prefix
    4. Set the location of the game

    Describe the reason behind the request

    [Translated by Google]

    In the Arch Linux I use, archlinuxcn provides system-level wine (wine-ge-custom-opt ie lutris-proton-ge) installation (installed to /usr), AUR and archlinuxcn also provide system installation of dxvk, I I also want to use them in places other than the launcher, so I hope to provide a setting item to choose the version of the system or to customize the location of these selections.

    Ditto, I use Wine elsewhere, so I expected to add an option to customize the location of the wine prefix (I usually just use the default ~/.wine)

    For some reason I had to install the game on another (NTFS) partition, so I would like to provide an option to freely choose where the game is installed

    I know the above requirements are probably just my case, and these can also be achieved by changing config.yaml and creating symlinks, but I would prefer to be able to provide some advanced options in the launcher settings to change them, so Not only can it keep the original simplicity and ease of use, but it can also provide a more convenient setup solution for users with special needs like me.
