But you shouldn't need this! A normal Wine install runs both 64 and 32bit.

Are you sure? Because i tried to run said game just "normal" and i get the same "error" as i got it back on windows as well:

Is the game Sacred by any chance? If so try this:

No its not Sacred. It's a german only game which i got nostalgic for and wanted to play it again but as it turns out the game hates 64bit and i cant seem to get it somehow to run which is frustrating to say the least.

Updated:
Normally you type:
WINEPREFIX=/home/me/mywinedirectory WINEARCH=win32 wine wineboot
(creates a 32 bit prefix)WINEPREFIX=/home/me/mywinedirectory WINEARCH=win32 wine 'gameinstaller.exe'
(install game into the 32 bit prefix)WINEPREFIX=/home/me/mywinedirectory WINEARCH=win32 wine 'gamestart.exe'
(start game from the 32 bit prefix)Of course use pathnames and .exe files according to your environment and needs.

If i would use proton i would have said so. So to clarify i mean just plain wine on desktop.
