sicko-tux enjoy, lots of stuff works quite well. proton experimental is a good starting point for most windows games right now, it's gotten very good lately. although i guess you're set with vic3 working.

i have Wine and Lutris installed, do i just need to enable “steam play” in the settings to use proton or is there an install for proton im missing?

[–] Llituro@hexbear.net 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

i don't use lutris very much and not with my steam library, so i'm not sure how to use proton in lutris. in steam though, you just need to right-click on the game title in your library and go to properties -> compatibility and force the use of a specific compatibility tool.

Instead of manually enabling Proton for specific games, you can just enable it globally. Click Steam at the top left -> Settings -> Compatibility -> and check "Enable Steam Play for supported titles" and if you want to enable for all games, even if they haven't been verified as working with Proton, you can check "Enable Steam Play for all other titles".
