A common guide for enabling most mods in linux
the capitalization problem and the way I solve it
As you know, the most common problem in mods of linux is the capitalization one. Instead of using links, we can use a case-insensitive system called ciopfs to solve this thoroughly. Here is what I have done in ubuntu 20.04, and at least most popular mods work in my computer.
- open your terminal, and type commands below.
- sudo apt-get install ciopfs
- cd ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/workshop/content/
- rm -rf 289070;mkdir 289070
- mkdir .289070
- ciopfs .289070 289070
- finally, append "ciopfs /home/your_usename/.steam/steam/steamapps/workshop/content/.289070 /home/your_username/.steam/steam/steamapps/workshop/content/289070". to your ~/.profile file.
- open your steam and reinstall all mods.
