Anyone knows if running a mod manager for the game is possible in linux?

[@R+5]

And if so, how. Or if theres a way to run a modded copy of mass effect 2 in linux.

i havent tried this yet, but, would it be possible to mod a copy of me2 in windows with the mod manager. copy all files and folders, and then paste them in a linux machine to be able to launch the game "pre-modded"?

I played a long ago me2, and i want to play it again but without the minigames, and using other time saving mods.

As long as you aren't talking the mods that need to recompile like ALOT, ALOV and MEUITM2, then there shouldn't be a problem with that method. Mind DLC .dll fixes and the like.

Were you intending to use ME3Tweeks, or a different manager?

Just remember to update the game before modding, then disable automatic updates.

yes, i think it was me3tweaks, to change character models, add more weapons and that sort of things. For now im ok with the faster loading screens and no-minigames mod which i was able to install without switching to windows.

Maybe i will try it later, thanks.

The only thing I know of is Vortex see this video. Keep in mind it's still kind of new from what I was reading. Hope this helps.

Yes, of course you can use windows to mod the game to play in linux.
But you can do this way more directly, if you just take the bother to install dotnet48 and d3dcompiler_47.
