wine VS wine-wayland

It's a bit annoying to setup initially. Caffe is the default runner for Bottles and plays more games out of the box than any other runner I've tested. However I hate the Bottles interface so I downloaded the Caffe runner separately.

Then you can drop that into the default folder in Lutris and choose it as the runner. Lutris also integrates with Steam so it'll see your entire steam library and you can choose a different wine runner and wine options on a per-game basis.

Lutris: use this https://imgur.com/34Zw0yz, enable/disable Esync Fsync FSR BattleEye Anti-cheat Easy Anti-cheat, download Caffe from https://github.com/bottlesdevs/wine/releases/download/caffe-7.18/caffe-7.18-x86_64.tar.xz and use it, delete dxvk cache.

caffe Basically just another runner that uses wine and proton but it's mostly only available on bottles which makes a wine environment and you can play games and run windows apps kinda like lutris.

For convenience, here's the download link: https://github.com/bottlesdevs/wine/releases/tag/caffe-7.19

you need the caffe 7.18 here place this in the lutris runners/wine/ folder and set overwatch to it

0 I'm running an AMD Ryzen 2700x, 32 GB of RAM at 2866 MHz, and an AMD RX 6600 XT. Overwatch 2 is being loaded through Bottles, using caffe-7.18 as the wine build.

Changed it from Lutris 7-2-2 to >>>>> caffe-7.18 which I downloaded here: https://github.com/bottlesdevs/wine/releases/tag/caffe-7.18 and EXTRACTED the contents into this directory : ~/.local/share/lutris/runners/wine/ and then restarted Lutris and opened up Overwatch 2 again. The game stopped crashing after this. I'm not sure if I could have just used protonup-qt to do this, but I do know that other versions of wine are available in that app to do this an easier way.

As most of you know OW2 has an inevitable "freeze" that occurs after a few mintues of playing it - thus people have been using Caffe 7.18 as a temporary solution.

Credit to u/Feyko for this one: you'll want to switch the "runner" Lutris uses with https://github.com/bottlesdevs/wine/releases/download/caffe-7.18/caffe-7.18-x86_64.tar.xz Extract the archive as it's own folder to "home/.var/app/net.lutris.Lutris/data/lutris/runners/wine" next to the others (if you cant see this folder, enable hidden files/folders with CTRL+H. Create the folders if they don't already exist. ) Credit to u/Existing_Mango7894 for the above Restart Lutris (close/open)

here ya go https://github.com/varmd/wine-wayland/releases

something like this has been happening for a while so I expected that a launch option may be made https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/wine-wl-git https://github.com/varmd/wine-wayland/tree/master https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge\_requests/2712 https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/2275 and a couple of these merge requests are merged so I expected that maybe a launch option will be available

Already exists: https://github.com/varmd/wine-wayland

Check out this GitHub repo, it has some changes that make a good percent of games playable on wayland

Have y'all tried looking at the wine-wayland driver? I have no idea if it works, but I do know there is a difference between this driver and the official one frome Wine. Wine uses XWayland and might even be using X11 (which is possible through Crostini's X-forwarder).
