Interesting way.
I adjusted the wine installation after the installer of @CCP_Snorlax stoped working on linux mint 19
1. Install Game via Steam
- Set Up Proton Support
- Install Eve Online
- Start once
2. Install winetricks
sudo apt install winetricks
3. Get to your game folder
This looks something like this:
cd ‘~/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/8500/pfx’
Depending on your steam folder settings
And run the follwoing commands:
WINEPREFIX="`pwd`" winecfg
Set the windows version to XP and hit apply
Then install the dependencies:
WINEPREFIX="`pwd`" winetricks corefonts vcrun2005 vcrun2008 vcrun2010
