Refried beans are traditionally made with lard. Many canned beans have fatback (pork) in them. Even vegetarian looking canned beans are not always vegetarian, I always look for the ones that specifically say vegetarian.

Is this on Macs too?!?

Not mine, then again I use nothing Microsoft on my Mac.

I wish I had found you nearly 20 years ago to help me get it running.

This was 2006/2007 I think. Every article I read about it had a different solution and none worked fully.

I also remember when I asked for help on wow centric forums being crappy replies of “don’t use Linux” and when I would post on Linux centric spaces getting “don’t play wow” replies.

Years ago I made the switch to Linux, then I wanted to play WOW again but it would not run on my Linux machines, so I started to dual boot. Then I began to wonder why I was keeping Linux installed.

Eventually I made the shift to macOS because I worked in theatre and needed it for specific Mac only programs. But I still have a Lenovo legion that I am getting ready to swap over to Linux (not that all of the games I currently play do not run on macOS or my steam deck).

If I was able to get WOW running on Linux years ago I likely never would have swapped back to windows. And I am currently trying to convince my son to install Linux on his pc running windows 10.

I had no idea they made paper RPGs of either of these.

I tried using kbin a while back but found no apps that supported it.

I did have a converter from this to a ps/2 connection when I got a newer computer.

Fairly certain my first computer used something like this for the keyboard. I did not have a mouse.

If only it was installed on my ps5… although I do not know that it is keyboard and mouse compatible there.

Text from my wife just now:

The Sims keeps locking up. I appreciate that you went above and beyond, but it’s done. Stick a fork in it.

I installed to /home/user_name/Games/the-sims-4/drive_c/users/windows_user/Games/The Sims 4/Game/Bin/TS4_x64.exe and it is saving, it is launching. I will let you know how it is doing once my wife has played a bit. Thank you very much for helping me with this.

The steam version is from steam, downloaded from steam and installed via steam. I have tried running it with multiple versions of Proton and Proton-GE to varying degrees of success. It either runs at a single digit frame rate, crashes on start up, or if it manage to get it running okay, it also cannot save.

The version I have installed currently is the fitgirl repack. I downloaded before we started troubleshooting, I had downloaded and installed it on a previous install of mint (I had to wipe that and install again due to me encrypting the home folder and that causing issues. Since then I redownloaded the sims4 FG repack. I installed it for the first time on this install of mint yesterday. Having the same issue with saving as I had on the last install of mint. That time however I used a guide from reddit that was very convoluted compared to how I installed it yesterday.

The current install of TS4 is in /home/user_name/Games/the-sims-4-lutris/drive_c/Program Files/The Sims 4/Game/Bin/TS4_x64.exe I do not see a way to set the save folder. This was installed via Lutris, and I used this install location because the default when installing was Z:\Games\The Sims 4, but doing so fails. Which is why I have it in c:.

I am wondering if I create the directory first if that will work.

Edit: read your post more carefully and see you gave me your path for install. I used that same path (roughly) still it is using c:\users\user_name\

Installation takes like 2+ hours, so it is working currently.

I had previously downloaded it. But I also get this error when I am able to get the Steam version running.

I had some time before game and got it to load. But I am getting the cannot save error again, which prevents me from actually entering the game.

I downloaded the file, but did not have a chance to open it yet.

Thanks, I run two d&d games today. I will try it when I get home.

I went to bed while it installed, woke up and it finally completed. When I launch either via the icon within lutris or the script in the desktop it gives me a language selection dialog, the sims 4 icon appears in the tray, I select the language and that is all it does. I am out hiking with my dog, I will copy the script contents when I get home.

I did that too, then i discovered i could log two computers into EverQuest and dual box.

There was no option for X:, and there was no program files in Z:, however C:\program files appears to be installing, 45 minutes to completion.
