1. Install wine following the instructions for your distro on the [WineHQ website](https://wiki.winehq.org/Category:Distributions). **If your distro provides an up to date version of wine** (ie. Arch), you may install from its repos instead. See the [WineHQ Main Page](https://www.winehq.org/) for current versions.
2. Install [32 bit drivers](Troubleshooting#-32bit-drivers) for your graphics card.
3. Install [Lutris **v0.5.11**](https://lutris.net/downloads/) or newer and launch it once before installing Star Citizen to trigger its automatic winetricks dependency download. **Note**: We do not recommend running git builds of Lutris.
4. In Lutris' `Preferences->Global options`, `Prefer system libraries` may have to be toggled to either `On` or `Off` depending on your system. For most distros, start with `On`. After installation is successful, this may be reset or configured on a per-game basis if desired.

## Installation Steps
1. Download our [LUG Helper](https://github.com/starcitizen-lug/lug-helper/releases/latest) (distro packages listed [here](https://github.com/starcitizen-lug/lug-helper#installation)).
2. Launch the LUG Helper and run the `Pre-flight Check` to optimize your system settings.
3. In Lutris, enable `Prefer system libraries`. During installation, most distros will need this switched `On` at this point. If you have no sound in-game, are on a rolling release distro, or see library errors, you may need to toggle this option to either `On` or `Off`
4. In the LUG Helper, select `Install Star Citizen` and install the launcher to an SSD where you have space for the entire game, approximately 110GB (we do not recommend an HDD).
5. Run the RSI launcher from Lutris and finish installing the game; do not change the default install path in the RSI Launcher settings.
6. In the LUG Helper, select `Manage Lutris Runners`, and install the latest runner from GloriousEggroll (or ask us on our [social channels](https://github.com/starcitizen-lug/knowledge-base/wiki#welcome-space-penguins) which runner is currently recommended).
7. In the LUG Helper, select `Manage DXVK Versions`. Install the latest standard dxvk.
8. **KDE+Wayland users:** See this [required workaround](https://github.com/starcitizen-lug/knowledge-base/wiki/Troubleshooting#mousecursor-issues-and-view-snapping-in-interaction-mode) to **resolve mouse cursor and view snapping issues**. Other Desktop Environments may be unaffected.
9. Check our [latest news](https://github.com/starcitizen-lug/knowledge-base/wiki#news) for important updates. Especially, Nvidia gpu driver issues, necessary workarounds, and currently recommended runner/DXVK versions.
10. Run the launcher again and start the game. See you in the 'verse!
