This took me ages to find, I couldn't find a guide that worked and I ended up wasting my night getting it working 😞

First download the mods you want to use along with the mod loader and also, if required script hook.

Follow the guide that came with your mod(s). Keep a tag of the mods you installed, specifically the dll file(s) you add to the root of your game folder.

Once done, add this to your arguments:

WINEDLLOVERRIDES="dll1,dll3,etc,etc,dxgi=n,b" OTHER_ARGUMENTS_CAN_COME_AFTER %command% exe_args

For example, with mine:
WINEDLLOVERRIDES="dinput8,ScriptHookRDR2,dxgi=n,b" PROTON_DLSS_UPGRADE=1 DXVK_NVAPI_DRS_NGX_DLSS_SR_OVERRIDE_RENDER_PRESET_SELECTION=RENDER_PRESET_K MANGOHUD_CONFIG=fps_limit=60,fps_limit_method=early,no_display mangohud STEAM_COMPAT_DATA_PATH="/custom/path" gamemoderun %command%

Please note how I haven't added the .dll extension to the end, it will save you a chatGPT prompt and the planet some water hopefully

Goal: use Sunshine + Moonlight for remote login without autologin (I want the system to stay password protected).

Problem: I tried the SSH headless setup from the Sunshine docs but couldn’t get it working. I’m using Tailscale for a static IP, but I’m not confident about my setup/security.

Fallback idea: use VNC first, then launch Moonlight after login.

Issue: I can’t get VNC working properly on Wayland + GDM. Encryption can’t be disabled anymore, and I can’t get any VNC connection working from the login screen or after login.

Has anyone got this working on GNOME Wayland recently, or is there a better approach for secure remote login with Sunshine/Moonlight without using autologin + scripts?
