Why would you change all letters to lower-case in the first place?

Capitalization is always a mess with games produced on Windows, particularly HTML games (maybe also Ren'Py games, when images are not compiled into a single file). As scrumbles says, there can be a lot of different possibilities with the capitalization, but usually laziness dictates that all paths are lower-case.
I may have a good regex to replace all paths with lower-case paths into an HTML file, but I'd have to test it.

\bsrc="([^"]+)"
src="\L\1"

I could integrate this and thisthrowawaygohard's command into a script... As long as the images are not inserted via JavaScript, it could work.

did you try to change the options in winecfg graphic tab?

I think I know what you mean: this happens to me with Ren'py games, when I want to switch to fullscreen mode.
Don't use the button in the top right corner. Click F instead. Or right-click on the game window and change the display preferences.

You guys use Wine to play Ren'Py games Why???? Every Ren'Py game has automatically a native Linux version. No Wine needed! You only use Wine for Unity games!

Exactly, it's the [game_name].sh file. Just double-click it, and the game will launch. If you instead open a notepad, give that file executable permissions, and if you don't find a .sh file, you can port the game easily. For more details just look into the Ren'Py section of the OP, there should be everything you need and much more.

I have to say I used to use Wine for Ren'Py too in the beginning. It's not been long since the developers started compiling games for Linux, and I didn't know it was even possible to have the game run natively.

Feel free to ask if you need help with Ren'Py, RPG Maker (both run native on Linux) or Unity games (via Wine).

Lazyness. Not all the VNs are shipped with the Linux libraries: I don't want to download the exact SDK and rebuild the game every time. The .exe is always there, instead. As for the performances, they are VNs, natively or not there is little to no difference.

Also, when I report bugs, I don't want to hear retarded shit like "Ah, but you are using Linux! Look, the code is OK, try to run the game on Windows".

Unless you are converting a really old game, there shouldn't be any difference if you just use the latest version of Ren'Py instead of looking for the one used by the author. The only reason to look for a specific old version is because a game uses a specific feature of bug that was removed later, I think.

Is there a way to disable logging on a UE4 based game? I'm trying to run Sorceress Tale via Proton / Wine, but the game keeps doing logging calls constantly, resulting in very annoying stutter. I already tried redirecting stdout and strerr with the &>/dev/null operator.

EDIT: Okay I got it figured out. You have to add the following lines to the end of the Engine.ini file. This will result in the game only logging game crash related errors. Stutter begone!

Hello! I didn't use wine for this, because it has a Linux version. The game is called "The Spellbook".
