Hey everyone. Klebs here and today, I will show you how I managed to get Rocksmith 2014 to run on Linux. For starters, I tested the Rocksmith Real Tone USB on Linux Mint 19.3, Pop!_OS 20.04 and Manjaro 20.0.3 and I used Proton 5.0-9 on Steam. Since I’m only sharing what works for me, there exists other methods like those listed on ProtonDB<\/a> where I got most of the tips for this tutorial.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n If it’s not done already, download and install Rocksmith 2014<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Once the game is installed, Wine should be configured specifically for it. Assuming Steam is set to install games on the \/home\/user\/.steam\/steam<\/em> folder, plug in the Real Tone cable before entering these two command lines on the terminal :<\/p>\n WINEPREFIX=~\/.steam\/steam\/steamapps\/compatdata\/221680\/pfx winetricks sound=alsa<\/p>\n WINEPREFIX=~\/.steam\/steam\/steamapps\/compatdata\/221680\/pfx winecfg<\/p><\/blockquote>\n <\/p>\n The Wine Configuration<\/em> window should appear and the following values should be set before clicking on the OK<\/em> button :<\/p>\n <\/a><\/a><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Once Wine has been configured specifically for this game, Rocksmith 2014 must be run at least once to generate an INI configuration file (Rocksmith.ini) which should be edited before launching the game for real. For that, simply right-click on the game and in the properties, click on\u00a0Set Launch Options<\/em> and enter the following command line:<\/p>\n PROTON_NO_D3D11=1 %command%<\/p><\/blockquote>\n <\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n When the game has been run at least once, the Rocksmith.ini file will appear in the ~\/.steam\/steam\/steamapps\/common\/Rocksmith2014<\/em> folder or wherever Steam games are installed. Simply set the following values:<\/p>\n ExclusiveMode=0 <\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Trying to tune your instrument should indicate whether the game runs properly. If a message pops up indicating that the Real Tone is unplugged, disabling PulseAudio should fix this. For that, just enter the following command lines in the terminal:<\/p>\n systemctl –user stop pulseaudio.socket <\/p>\n To revert back:<\/p>\n systemctl –user start pulseaudio.socket <\/p>\n Don\u2019t hesitate to send me your questions and comments on either Twitter<\/a> or Mastodon<\/a>.<\/p>\n Also, if you like what I do and use the Brave browser, you can leave me a tip in form of the BAT cryptocurrency on either my website or my Twitter<\/a> account.
