docs VS protondb_faq

Hey! So I'm a new linux user and wanted to try and get battlenet to work so i can play a bit of wow classic. Ive looked around on on other post like this and first tried getting it to work with lutris. I installed the drivers and wine compabilities from https://github.com/lutris/docs and easily got battlenet installed but after i close it (before logging in) i cant start the program again. Lutris just gets stuck on the launching icon. I then installed bottles and tried launching it from there and the login screen just pops up and closes for barely a second. After running it with bottles the terminal shows a few errors posted below. I really have no clue where ive gone wrong but ive been stuck with this for hours so any help would be incredibly appreciated

Making sure you are using the latest version of Mint (21.2 as I write) is key for the next piece - you need to enable 32 bit libraries and install the vulkan and wine dependencies to make things work well. This is the wine link and this is the drivers link. If you are not running the 21.2 Mint, the warning on the drivers page is there for you - you need to manually fix a file after adding the kisak ppa on 21.1 to allow the 32 bits vulkan and mesa to install.

Instructions to install 32 bits libraries dependencies

Now I get the message that Vulcan libraries are missing and I should download them following this guide: https://github.com/lutris/docs/blob/master/InstallingDrivers.md

Reinstalling all wine dependencies stated on Lutris' Github with no luck

I am trying to launch rainbow 6 siege though proton after installing the vulcan drivers as recomended by lutris here: https://github.com/lutris/docs/blob/master/InstallingDrivers.md

I'm trying to install battlenet and SC2 on my computer. I installed Wine, dependencies then Lutris as explained there : https://github.com/lutris/docs/blob/master/Battle.Net.md

Warframe dropped support for DirectX10 in January 2021. Proton supports DirectX11. According to protondb, Warframe runs fine. Do you have the correct graphics drivers installed?

ProtonDB Wiki suggests installing correct video drivers but I am hesitant about touching video drivers: [user@host ~]$ sudo pacman -S lib32-vulkan-intel vulkan-intel lib32-mesa lib32-vulkan-icd-loader vulkan-tools llvm lib32-llvm lib32-llvm-libs llvm-libs [sudo] password for mbc: warning: lib32-vulkan-intel-21.1.0-1 is up to date -- reinstalling warning: vulkan-intel-21.1.0-1 is up to date -- reinstalling warning: lib32-mesa-21.1.0-1 is up to date -- reinstalling warning: lib32-vulkan-icd-loader-1.2.176-1 is up to date -- reinstalling warning: vulkan-tools-1.2.172-1 is up to date -- reinstalling warning: lib32-llvm-libs-11.1.0-1 is up to date -- reinstalling warning: llvm-libs-11.1.0-1 is up to date -- reinstalling resolving dependencies... looking for conflicting packages...

I just noticed, whenever I want to install the dependencies for Arch/Nvidia from here: https://github.com/NoXPhasma/protondb_faq/wiki/Graphics-driver-installation#arch

Well it would be helpful to get some more details, like what hardware and drivers you're using, but if I had to guess it's probably a driver problem. This link has useful info on how to install the needed drivers for Proton (I assume you're playing the game through Steam, correct me if I'm wrong) : https://github.com/NoXPhasma/protondb_faq/wiki/Graphics-driver-installation. IIRC, Elememtary is Ubuntu based, so probably you should follow the Ubuntu instructions for your graphics card. If that doesn't help, these links may: https://www.protondb.com/help/troubleshooting-faq https://www.protondb.com/app/489830
