I downloaded the game files, mounted the .iso files and added the game to setup.exe to my steam library and installed the game under the mountpoint. When i click play in steam i just get back to the installer. Running the SkyrimSe.exe in steam(located in the CODEX directory) doesnt work. I use Arch Linux.

Did you actually apply the crack over top of the original files? You say you're running the executable in the CODEX directory, but the CODEX directory would be where the temporary crack files are, not where the game is expecting them. You can also try installing the latest repack from KaOs, which you can find on 1337x by searching for "skyrim repack kaos". The repack will auto-crack everything so you can be sure that at least that is done correctly.

OK, so I downloaded and installed your mentioned crack. The problem is, that if I run it with wine the game doesn't work. I mean, it works fine, but this one dude doesn't talk to me and at one point my vehicle just drives against a wall. Haven't tried running it in steam yet.

Are NPCs silent when talking? If so you'll need to install faudio into your Wine prefix with Winetricks. Running with Steam may help a little also but l don't remember if Proton includes faudio by default.

As for the cart crashing that's probably just Skyrim. The opening cutscene is notoriously buggy.

I will try using faudio(yes they are silent).
