Linux - Proton

[Kepos]

Hi,

I managed to install the game and start the Wargaming launcher. Probably this description might help somebody to start the game.

After testing several Proton versions, I managed to start the launcher with Proton 5.13-6 and the following starting command: ''PROTON_USE_WINED3D11=1 PROTON_NO_ESYNC=2 PROTON_FORCE_LARGE_ADDRESS_AWARE=3 PROTON_LOG=4 %command%'' -> unfortunately the Launcher brought up a notice, that I cannot play, because my Steam account (email) is already in use with a Wargaming.net account.

Also left a note at ProtonDB.

I can't switch the Steam account email, and hitting 'contact support' only opens a FAQ site.

So...from my view, they seem to actively block the use of already played accounts.
Reason might be to earn good money from fresh accounts.

Well good job anyways getting the game to run easily on Linux, now we dont have to use wine.

For me it shows launcher ok, but after I press the start button it crashes to desktop.

Now Game works with Proton-6.8-GE-1.
No problems at this time

Im using Proton-6.8-GE-2 and it will load "Play" screen but then the window closes and game status is "Running" but nothing happens.

Using Wine 5.0.3 and latest Winetricks, Nvidia driver 460. Any suggestions what could b wrong?

No luck with Proton so far. Fingers crossed.

PROTON 6.14GE-1 works for me, it runs the game. Occasional glitches. Can't figure out how to log into old account however...steam/WG forces new account creation without log-in option
