notes: "- Expansion to MechWarrior 4: Vengeance\r\n- Will install in the original's\
  \ prefix - should work either with dxwrapper or dgVoodoo 2, which it will take either\
  \ from the original's prefix, or use the one provided by Lutris, depending on your\
  \ settings\r\n- In actual game installer, use default options, do not launch game\
  \ at the end of installation\r\n- Use the same runner configuration for both original\
  \ and the expansion\r\n- Uses PCGW Enhanced Keyboard Controls - rename the existing\
  \ pilot in the Roster screen.\r\n- Recommended to use Proton-GE Latest\r\n- Known\
  \ issues:\r\n1) mouse laggy in Roster menu\r\n2) game crashes when trying to launch\
  \ Instant Action\r\n3) game installation process tries to patch the original and\
  \ fails due to already patched EXE present, reporting an error - ignore this message"
