Comment on "You should probably just throw it away"
merci3@lemmy.world 1 week agoBack whe I used OPL, OPL-PC-Tools worked fine. OPL Mamager specifically also ran fine under wine for me.
If you find the time you could do some testing under a live media enviroment, I recommend Linux Mint if you haven’t tested it already :)

I’ll definitely check out OPL-PC-Tools, thanks! HDL Batch Installer just hangs on open, checking for updates. I have been running Mint since November. I can’t get OPL manager to launch at all. Regular Wine, Proton, nothing. I’ve tried brand new prefixes with fresh .NET runtime, it just refuses to start.

I did a clean wine install and could confirm that OPL Manager indeed does not launch, which is kinda intriguing to me, since it did work with me about 2 years ago, this user also reported it working (in 2016) , maybe something changed along the way and it broke? I’ll try to make it work when I get another chance :P Unless OPL-PC-Tools proves to be good enough to replace it for ya
About HDL Batch Installer, I personally never used it, so I’m not sure on how it works and all, BUT, with some research it seems like HDL Batch is just a frontend for HDL Bump, while Batch is windows only, there seems to be an alternative frontend for Linux, called HDL Dump Helper but I did not test it nor do I got a ps2 right now to do so. Wish you best of luck 😁

Well, I’ll give that a try, too then. Thanks for investigating! At least it’s not just me that can’t get it to work.
