Hulmy Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 Hello good people, I'm getting a new PC and will use Linux. Do I have to buy FM19 again in the Linux version? And will my save game and editor files from my Windows PC work on the Linux version? Many thanks! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Wright 747 Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 I don't think FM19 will work on linux Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nie jem frytek Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 No FM19 on Linux At least natively, maybe it could work with Proton https://www.protondb.com/app/872790 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hovis Dexter Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 It works perfectly well using the Proton system and you can definitely use all your save games, graphic files and custom leagues on a Linux machine.

I have just started using this on Linux Mint and its running pretty smoothly. The issue I have is that for the life of me can't find my install files or preference files (I'm pretty new to Linux). When I right click on the properties for the FM shortcut on my desktop it just points me to the desktop again. Any ideas? Thanks Mark. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hovis Dexter Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 I’d suggest that you use your file manager to the appropriate location that I quoted. The . (dot) at the beginning of the file location indicates a hidden file. Control + H toggles hidden file visibility on and off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baggio10 Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 Thanks for the reply. I managed to find the hidden files, I just can't get the skins or kits etc to load. Oh well, at least it works. Mark. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
