- confiq 5y agoAs far as I understand, yes[1]! I'll quote > There are two types of runners in Bottles: > 1. Wine > 2. Proton > The Wine runner is used for all Environments and is therefore in all bottles created, but also for external prefixes imported into Bottles. We support 3 different runners: [1] https://docs.usebottles.com/components/runners https://docs.usebottles.com/components/runners
- badsectoracula 5y agoI haven't used this software, but FWIW i almost never have to create isolated Wine (well, Wine-staging) environments. I've installed pretty much everything - applications, games, etc - on the default wine prefix and things tend to work just fine. Though i do have installed DXVK and VKD3D-Proton as well as the windows media framework files for games to work properly, but i do not see these as anything different to what i was doing on Windows anyway - including using DXVK to run some D3D9 games that were otherwise broken. I think in general Wine and Wine-staging are good enough nowadays to not need game-specific hacks that affect the entire wine prefix anymore.
