misha | Thanks. | 04:12:07 |
misha | I tried to install Heroic and steam, but I feel I'm punching a bit above my weight. | 04:12:33 |
misha | Do you have config files to share? | 04:12:42 |
misha | My general conclusion after a full night trying to get battle.net working: "it's still quite hard to get games working on Linux 😪". | 04:13:48 |

woobilicious | Oh you don't already have Steam? might not be the best solution for you then misha as you need an account and Steam only downloads proton as a depedency of games, if you have no games, you get no proton IIRC | 04:52:23 |
QuadRadical (Ping) | not most games, its really easy to use heroic for epic, gog, amazon, and zoom games | 04:53:27 |
QuadRadical (Ping) | and steam also works perfectly | 04:53:38 |
QuadRadical (Ping) | im not super aware of how battle net works | 04:53:46 |
QuadRadical (Ping) | maybe lutris can help? or just sideload the battlenet launcher onto heroic | 04:54:14 |
QuadRadical (Ping) | if you need help with heroic feel free to ping me | 04:54:23 |
QuadRadical (Ping) | ill probably take on maintainership of the nix packages for heroic soonTM | 04:54:42 |
K900 | IME just launching Battle.net with Proton/UMU works perfectly fine | 05:29:59 |
woobilicious | I just noticed I still had copies of wine v6 in my lutris folder that heroic was detecting | 05:32:30 |
badcold | Yes, maybe not the best path but I succeeded by: 1. installing Battle.net via steam by using the installer as a "non-steam game" + compatibility "Proton Experimental" 2. finding the wine prefix it was installed into 3. changing the steam "target" by the path to the launcher in that prefix. | 14:17:50 |
| Lenny. changed their display name from Lenny. to Lenny. ☎️5665. | 14:24:21 |
misha | Can you maybe share your setup? | 14:55:43 |
K900 | I don't really have a Setup | 15:01:45 |
K900 | I just added the Battle.net installer to Steam as a non-Steam game, installed it outside the prefix, then added the actual launcher as a non-Steam game | 15:02:20 |

clay_pidgin | Aloha my dears. I have my minecraft client working great, and am embarking on the server world. Haven't hosted since the old bukkit days before Jeb joined Mojang. | 23:15:18 |
