Wine manager Bottles has a big new release with major overhauls
31 Jan 2022 at 6:36 pm UTC

Quoting: Comandante ÑoñardoI am not talking about Steam games, I talk about games I have on DVD or Downloaded...
To Install Wolfenstein 2009 from a DVD (non-steam) was a pain in the ass.

Usage experience must be "Click game installer.exe file, Install game & Play"
I don't have that game on disk, but i do have a lot of other games on disk.

Here are three games I installed from disk and run. I have not tried all my games. One I know I can't get to work is F.E.A.R because wine is fucking the CD key box op, so I can only put in 3 letters for every box when I need four letters, but besides that, I could easily run that game too.

Quoting: kibasnowpawi still feel like lutris is a better options here or if you somehow can miss mass this two.
Lutris is useful when you have an specific game install script, but it lacks of a default generic script template for to use when a game or app doesn't have an specific install script...
I can't entirely agree because I install all my games without a script, and all my steam games are installed in wine, not native steam, but Steam EXE inside wine using lutris to download and install the game for me with the Steam for Windows runner. I can get most games up and running with no problem, even games like Resident evil Revelation and BLUE REFLECTION run as good as on native steam, and i don't have to worry about bit32 and proton 5.0 to make them work as long WMP 11 is installed.

Quoting: kibasnowpawThis is way to complicated to use and it don't feel user friendly at all and a stuff is missing or not working. i still feel like lutris is a better options here or if you somehow can miss mass this two.
Our focus is on ease of use. What and how should we improve?
My two biggest problems at the moment are 1. The Steam Runner doesn't work. I have to install it, Manuel, I don't know if I did it wrong, but it looks like the other runners do work of those I tried. 2. I can't install the Bottle in places other than my Home folder. I have a tiny SSD, so I can't use my main Folder as an established point thats why I have a 12 TB IronWolf for my games in the first place. If there is a way to use my second HDD, I would rather do that.

Steam Play Proton 6.3 is out now plus a Proton Experimental update (updated)
3 Apr 2021 at 4:49 am UTC

Bioshock 2 Remastered?? Does that game not already work? I know it's been a while I played it think it was back at proton 4, but I know I played both games on Linux, so I'm kind of surprise to see it on the list unless it broke and got a fix or it runs 100% better on proton 6.

I'm a ubuntu 20.04 User. And to see this update really made me happy. I have taken a step back from Linux since I got a new pc and forgot to order an SSD for my Ubuntu OS, so it's installed on a 1TB blue WD HDD, and its a pain in the ass to use! If anyone has ever used a 5400 RPM HDD, would know what I'm talking about. The SSD is on its way as soon i have it in my system i will fire upon Ubuntu gaming again right now I'm playing on Win 10 until i get it.

Proton 5.0-3 for Steam Play released, Direct3D 12 support for Metro Exodus
27 Feb 2020 at 4:29 pm UTC

Quoting: Patola
Quoting: kibasnowpawMost of my steam games don't work with the Proton 5.0-3, so i jump back to Proton 4.11-12 that help. The only game i really have a problem with so far is halo with 4.11-12. I have tried Proton 5.0-3 on two PC's so far with the same results. I can't start any games, so its a real setback, so I just gonna keep using Proton 4.11-12 until they have fixed whatever went wrong.
Maybe you have the same problem I had? I found a fix for it, it was due to wrong domain and/or nameserver: https://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=33508 [External Link]
Reinstall Ubuntu Did it for me also it dont look like P5.XX work on Ubuntu 18.XX you need 19.XX - 20.XX.
