FL Studio Integrator

Integrate FL Studio with your Linux system.

So what does it do?

It doesn't take care of installing FL Studio, but integrating it with the system:

• Provides(/Installs) a shell script that runs the .exe with Wine and a .desktop application shortcut (/and an icon);

• Associates the .flp files and allows to open them (thanks defusq) from the file manager, desktop etc., or the terminal: fl-studio-integrator "/path/to/*.flp".

In version 1.0.4, two new integrations have been added for .exe, .lnk, .msi and .reg files!

How to install

Arch - the AUR.

Different distros:

1. Download Source Code (from releases) and the icon (as fl-studio.png).

2. Extract the file and move .local to the home directory ~.

3. Go to ~/.local/share/applications, make fl-studio-integrator, -elm, and -reg executable and edit the WINEPREFIX path in them.

4. Add /home/ReplaceThisWithYourUSERname in fl-studio-integrator.desktop, -elm, and -reg to Exec= and Icon= (before /.local/..).

5. Go to ~/.config and add application/flp=fl-studio-integrator.desktop; in mimeapps.list.

To open from the terminal create alias commands:

alias fl-studio-integrator='~/.local/share/applications/fl-studio-integrator'

alias fl-studio-integrator-elm='~/.local/share/applications/fl-studio-integrator-elm'

alias fl-studio-integrator-reg='~/.local/share/applications/fl-studio-integrator-reg'

in one of these files (depending on your shell): ~/.bashrc / ~/.zshrc / ~/.config/fish/config.fish.

1. Download snapshot from the AUR and the icon (as fl-studio.png).
2. Make fl-studio-integrator, -elm, and -reg executable and edit the WINEPREFIX path in them.
3. Place the files like in the PKGBUILD (lines 32-39, /usr/..).
4. sudo update-mime-database /usr/share/mime (for file associations).

Tips

1. Running the plugin in a Detached mode; re-clicking Captonize or Detailed settings buttons; clicking on the plugin.
2. export WINEDDLOVERRIDES="d2d1=disabled".
3. Installing DXVK and/or VKD3D (they can fix glitches in some, but also cause them in others, particularly DXVK).
4. Wine versions with the Vulkan child window patch (more information), such as: wine-ge-custom, wine-lutris or wine-tkg (although this one has to be built with the patch, but there's an unofficially pre-built version on Copr).

To install, open the file with FL Studio REG (or fl-studio-integrator-reg in the terminal).

Wine Control Panel (fl-studio-integrator-elm "/path/to/drive_c/windows/system32/control.exe" or go to the path and open it with FL Studio ELM) -> Internet Settings -> Connections -> Use a proxy server ✓ - Type something in Address and Port - Apply - OK

Possible performance improvements

• Renice

Adjusting the nice value/priority of processes in /etc/gamemode.ini, for example, to 7 (High).

export WINEESYNC=0 WINEFSYNC=1

export __GL_SHADER_DISK_CACHE_SKIP_CLEANUP=0 __VK_LAYER_NV_optimus="NVIDIA_only" VK_ICD_FILENAMES="/usr/share/vulkan/icd.d/nvidia_icd.json"

__GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME="nvidia", __NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 and prime-run (can) cause crashes.

DXVK/VKD3D might also help.

Of course, this project is in no way affiliated with the FL Studio developers.
