Hopefully they'll somehow support Proton and Valve devices. Trying to run older windows-only games bought on GOG with launchers like Heroic is a bit of a hit or miss, despite the Steam releases of the same games having somehow a bigger chance of working out of the box. I guess there are some weird differences between the default Proton Runtime and the proton-ge/wine-ge builds.
- prmoustache 8mo agoIf you have steam installed on the same machine, you can use proton runtimes from steam already.
- consp 8mo agoI use proton experimental to run most windows tools with no linux support. Small script in the script nautilus folder and there you go "run-win.sh" for all (util a native tool emerges).
- paladum 8mo agoHi, can you share that script ? I strugle to find simple doc on running win apps or games with proton outside of steam.
- easyThrowaway 8mo agoI'd love to see it, too. There are a few Gists floating around supposedly letting you run a third-party game using proton, But everything I've tested fails with little to no usable debug indications on what's going wrong.
