From f2f48e2d4614c38eae6a5c6d67adca3d16a7bab4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Janne Pulkkinen Date: Sun, 4 Aug 2024 11:54:44 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] Point people towards Protontricks beta Due to `vdf` Python library not having released a new version with appinfo V29 support, Protontricks is in an unfortunate limbo where a new version cannot be released. Try to point people towards a beta build, as this issue is causing tons of duplicate bug reports to be made. --- README.md | 3 +++ 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+) diff --git a/README.md b/README.md index 492ab71..de3db1d 100644 --- a/README.md +++ b/README.md @@ -7,6 +7,9 @@ Protontricks [](https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.github.Matoking.protontricks) +> [!IMPORTANT] +> **Steam beta currently needs a beta version of Protontricks** to be installed and will otherwise fail with "Invalid file magic number" error.
