Fallen World

Overview

This guide will walk you through the process of setting up Fallen World on Linux using Jackify. This guide assumes you’ve already completed the steps listed on the requirements page (https://fallenworld.nexus/requirements).

Prerequisites

Protontricks
FUSE

Installing Proton CachyOS

ProtonPlus

Proton CachyOS can be installed easily and with little user intervention using ProtonPlus.

Open ProtonPlus and, on the tools tab, find the dropdown labeled Proton-CachyOS (x86_64_v4) and then press the install button next to the top most release.

Lastly, restart steam and Proton CachyOS should now be available.

Manual

If ProtonPlus doesn’t work for you or you’d rather just do it manually, these are the steps to do it.

Download the latest release of Proton CachyOS from their Github page (you want the file ending in slr-x86_64.tar.xz).

https://github.com/CachyOS/proton-cachyos/releases/latest

Now, extract the contents of the file to the compatibility tools folder of your Steam install. Usually ~/.steam/root/compatibilitytools.d/ or ~/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/data/Steam/compatibilitytools.d/ if you installed Steam with Flatpak.

Finally, restart steam and it should be available.

Installing Jackify

First, you’ll need to download the latest version of the Jackify.AppImage file from the projects Github page:

https://github.com/Omni-guides/Jackify/releases/latest

Next, you’ll need to make it executable. This can be done by either right clicking the file in your file manager, going to permissions, and changing execute to either “Owner” or “Anyone” or running this command: chmod +x /path/to/Jackify.AppImage.

Installing the modlist

Open the Jackify.AppImage file and select the “Modlist Tasks” option. Then select “Install a Modlist (Automated)” and set the game type to “Fallout 4”. Now, press “Select Modlist” and look for “FALLEN WORLD” and then press “Install Modlist” in the bottom right corner.

Before pressing “Start Installation”, make sure the install directory and downloads directory are pointing to the right place and that you have enough space available. You’ll also want to authorise your Nexus login.

Finally, you can press “Start Installation” and Jackify will do the rest for you.

Once the install completes, there’ll be a popup asking if you want to add the modlist to Steam and configure it. Select “Yes”. Steam will now restart.

There’ll be another popup warning about ENB, just press “I Understand” and then “Exit” on the other popup to close Jackify.

Launching

Now that the modlist is installed and added to Steam, we can do some final configuration steps and then launch it.

There should now be a “FALLEN WORLD” entry in your Steam Library. Select it and then select the cogwheel in the top corner. Select “Properties” and then “Compatibility”. Make sure the version of Proton CachyOS you installed earlier is selected.

Now, you should be able to just press “Play” and Mod Organizer 2 will start up.

Lastly, follow the remaining steps outlined in the launching section of the main guide

Note: In the Fallen World Launcher, ignore any warnings about Windows Defender, Antivirus, or System Optimization.

Common Issues

Mouse leaking into other monitor

if you have a multi-monitor setup sometimes on Fallout 4 your cursor might leak out of the main game window. This can be fixed by installing Gamescope and adding gamescope -W 1920 -H 1080 -f -- (space between the -f and the --) before the %command% in your launch options for Fallen World. Replace 2560 and 1440 with your monitors resolution (i.e. -W 2560 -H 1440 for a 1440p monitor).
