    Using proton through lutris

    [–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

    What's wrong with Bottles?

    [–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago (2 children)

    No. Don't do that. Use wine-ge instead.

    [–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago (2 children)

    AFAIK you can set Lutris up to use GE or Proton builds.

    I'm running WOTLK classic just fine with proton on Lutris ✅

    Yes you can run proton-ge or proton with lutris. Glorious Eggrole though highly recommend against doing so since proton-ge is an optimized proton version for steam, that's why there is wine-ge for non-steam games or applications.

    Just because you can, doesn't mean you should.

    Proton-ge for steams proton and Wine-ge for non steam usecases.

    Oh so that's what you meant. Thought you meant don't use Lutris at first because of how you worded it. That makes much more sense.

    Same deal, better use wine-ge.
