Lutris Steam version: Invalid game directory

[fosspill]

Hah, don't worry. I reworked that a little while ago so I thought I had broken it for a second! Happy you found the issue. I've added a link to your solution in the OP

For now I'd just modify /home/xxxx/.config/FFXIV_Modding_Tool/config.cfg by hand!

What folders are in your FFXIV Online folder? could you show me?
Reason I'm asking is that validation is done within the folder to ensure it seems like a proper install

The specific code that fails is:
if(!_ValidDirectory(Path.Combine(_GameDirectoryFromConsole, "game", "sqpack", "ffxiv"), "GameDirectory")){

So, the path it's checking is:
/home/XXXX/Games/final-fantasy-xiv-online/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/common/FINAL FANTASY XIV Online/game/sqpack/ffxiv
Within that folder we check for *.index files. if there are none it's not a valid directory.

Could you confirm that that folder has .index files in it?

OH I'm so sorry I filled a bug for that : As I was searching for the .index file, I found the folder where I was trying to install ffmt didn't contain any game files :

As this is the Lutris Steam version of FFXIV, used only to create a "steam link" to the Final Fantasy XIV QuickLauncher (one of the ways to play FFXIV on Linux now that the old launcher is not working anymore and you've got a steam version of FFXIV) there isn't any game files here :'( !

I installed my game in another directory of my disk through QuickLauncher download system ...

I found the .index file in this other destination and ffmt config worked well 👍

I hope this issue can help other lost Linux users : Look again if your FFXIV folder is the one containing game files ;)

Thanks a lot for your reactivity :D
