Title: Avowed asking for C++ Visual Runtime when launching from Battle.net

So I’m having trouble getting Avowed to launch on my new Bazzite system. I installed Battle.net though Steam like the guide on this site describes, and installed Avowed though it, but when I try to run it, it says it needs a C++ Visual Runtime. I tried adding Avowed to Steam, and it starts to launch, but then closes because it says Battle.net isn’t running, when it is.
Any help would be appreciated.

So according to ProtonDB you need vcrun2026 and dotnet48 installed in the Battle.net prefix. You should be able to install those using the protontricks utility that should be available in Bazzite:

HTH,

Thank you, I'm having trouble installing these though, I found dotnet48 in protontricks, but it keeps failing to install, and could not find vcrun2026, the most recent listed was vcrun2022.
