What is dxvk? Could you explain?
Maybe things have changed since I last tried using Grapejuice a couple months ago, but back then, the out-of-the-box experience was atrocious. Studio would crash for anything. If I clicked something, studio would crash. If I kept the app open for more than 30 seconds, it would crash.
I donāt doubt that these problems have been fixed to some extent nowadays. That being said, there is too much instability for me to change over. Roblox development is my primary work for the foreseeable future, so I simply cannot justify the switch.
My current plan is to somehow purchase and daily-drive a 2021 MacBook Pro, my current desktop machine would probably end up becoming an ESXi server.
Direct X Vulkan.
DXVK converts Direct X calls to Vulkan calls. Itās mostly used with Wine, since Wine normally converts Direct X calls to OpenGL.

When I quit Roblox Player or I launch Roblox Studio the Night Light of my system goes off. I think this is a bug with Grapejuice/Wine. Does anybody have the same issue?: I have a custom Wine version ā wine-tkg-fsync-git-6.14.r0.g7bedd313c88-326-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst
Grapejuice v: 3.62.15
OS: Manjaro Linux, 64 bit, Gnome (Arch Linux fork/based)
Kernel: 5.10.70-1-MANJARO

Try removing app and dependencies, reinstalling Wine from the official repo and reinstalling Grapejuice. You should be fine after this.
Believe it or not, itās a fastflag (please someone make a Roblox Player fflag editor), noticed this a while ago whilst trying to see if you basically force Roblox to never update.
(never mind, I thought you were asking on how DirectX 9 is still working)
Iām interested to try Grapejuice on a Linux Mint VM, going to install it in a few minutes:
Couldnāt get it working, but itās my fault anyways since I couldnāt figure out how to get winehq-staging.

To get it working you need to build a custom version of wine-tkg, pre-compiled versions are available in the discord server. If you use the pre-compiled versions, install wine on your system first to make sure you have all the dependencies needed to run Wine property.
Itās pretty decent software but I ended up having two small issues when running Roblox and Roblox Studio. The first is that I could only hit Play once in Roblox Studio before it would try to load and hang at 66%. The second is that the mouse wasnāt movable in the Roblox application itself.
Personally havenāt had this happen, what distro are you on?
This is a wine issue, look into getting a patched version of wine.
Iām on Ubuntu Focal. Wine is the newest development version which I believe is 6.23. Iāll get a patched version.
There is a bit of frame dropping / lag in Roblox. Is it possible to repair that issue as well?
I have been using Grapejuice for about a year now, and it seems to be working fine. Until today.
Studio crashes instantly on startup. I have looked at the logs and this is what I got:
Unable to read VR Path Registry from C:\users\blob\AppData\Local\openvr\openvrpaths.vrpath
I tried creating an empty file at the path in the log, but to no avail.

Youāre using a custom Wine build thatās at least 4 months old on a rolling release distro. When you add custom packages to a rolling release distro you will need to keep those up to date yourself. They will break when one of their dependencies changes. Youāre also using DXVK, which will only add to this complexity. Not only that, DXVK (and the Vulkan) renderer in general donāt work that well in studio. Child window rendering is wildly unstable with Vulkan based renderer backends as well.
As for the VR registry line: it is completely benign.
The most stable setup for running studio right now is:
- Vanilla wine
- D3D11 renderer
- No DXVK
It wonāt be the most performant thing ever, but itāll render accurately.

This Is Really Good Because ROBLOX isnāt offically Supported On Linux. if i ever switch to linux i may consider using thisā¦ Also Does It work with Custom Modified Clients Such As The 2016 Clients (Aka Ones Made By ROBLOX clones)

Grapejuice 4 has been released, its a big departure from the previous releases. Its got a boatload of new features alongside a completely overhauled UI! Iāve updated the original post to reflect the changes.

The Roblox client appears to be working fine for me however studio is quite laggy. I tried switching renderers but with no success. Thanks in advance.
