This script smooths the usage of FallrimTools on Linux.

Constructive suggestions on improving the script are welcome.

You realy need to change location path of your savegames and the downloaded Falrim. This can be done by changing the lines:

fo4savepath="NEEDTOBECHANGED"

and:

fallrimpath="NEEDTOBECHANGED"

I put comments in the file with an example of path for this variables. Be cool that you can use paths with spaces by all the means.

On my system, I've made symbolic links for the savegame folder and also for the Fallout 4 .ini files folder. Separete partition, easing things to Loot and Vortex, and stuff... But this isn't realy necessary, you can point direct to the original folder on your Steam Library. Originally it must be on:

<SteamLibraryLocation>/steamapps/compatdata/377160/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/My Documents/My Games/Fallout4

Obviously the <SteamLibraryLocation> must be changed to the actual Steam Library location on your system.

The script checks if you already changed the necessary paths.

This script has an option to add itself as an alias in the ~/.profile. So it can be called, from any terminal, as:

fallrim

This option must need reload the ~/.profile through the terminal:

source ~/.profile

Or logoff/login on your system account.
