Warning
This script works for me, but in theory it is really dumb. Don't use it if you don't understand it
alt:V doesn't work when ASILoader is installed to the game path. I made this script to solve this problem.
With this script I intend to automate the downloading and updating of ASILoader and YimMenu
This script intends to work for Proton (Steam) and Wine (Rockstar Games, Epic Games) installations (Because i use both)
The script checks for the standard Steam and Lutris path at the moment If you want to override this, set the environment variable WINE_GTA_PATH to the path of the game and select Wine as option or start with GAME_TYPE=wine (Yes, even if your game is Steam and the path differs!)
| ENV Variable | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| WINE_GTA_PATH | The path to the game folder, containing the games executable | ./Grand Theft Auto V |
| GAME_TYPE | Sets the type for the type of game installation | "wine" or "proton" |
| LAUNCH_STEAM | Launches the game after running the script | 1 for yes |
| SKIP_DOWNLOAD_YIM | Skips the download from Github | 1 for skip |
| SKIP_DOWNLOAD_ASI | Skips the download from Github | 1 for skip |
| UPDATE_MENUS | Downloads Extras Menu and Ultimate Menu | 1 to Update else scripts get removed (to be fixed) |
GAME_TYPE=proton LAUNCH_STEAM=1 ./start.sh
This way you don't have to give any input and the game will just launch!
Clone with git:
git clone https://github.com/AroPix/YimMenuLinux.git ~/Games/yimmenu/
Open altv.sh, and add
$HOME/Games/yimmenu/restore.sh
before the Steam launch command and
LAUNCH_STEAM=0 GAME_TYPE=proton $HOME/Games/yimmenu/start.sh
after
