If you’re using Ubuntu or Debian, you can install Steam through the Ubuntu software application or use the Ubuntu repositories. Before we look at that, let’s learn more about Steam first. In this tutorial we will see how to install Steam on Ubuntu and how to use it to play games on Ubuntu. L1T WIP Working Games List, results many vary.Gaming on Linux has become easier and more accessible thanks to Steam. (do this at your own risk ofc).įinding the appid of a game is as easy as going to the store page and looking looking at the URL presented on the top of the client. You can delete the appid folder from steamapps/compatdata and it should reset the proton portion of a game. Note: updates may have caused some of the Proton games to stop working That way you remember what games you have been testing. Pro-tip: Make a ‘Proton’ or similar category in your games list ( right click on a game and ’ set categories ’ ) Post your experiences and if you feel okay doing so, your hardware Specs / Distro. See also the Beta option in the beta client this allows for you to test up coming functionality not available in the stable branch Experiment with the second option if you want. Then goto the Steam play tab in the same menu and enable the above. In order for it to work you need to opt into the beta channel on your Linux Steam client. Thanks Valve and everyone involved in making this happen There are now many new games to test on Linux. WELCOME TO THE UNOFFICIAL WINDOWS GAMES ON LINUX TESTING THREAD I would really like to keep launching it through steam to keep proton up to date and for simplicity. Is there any known workaround that is reasonable at this time? Then because the app has been ported to a prefix that has nothing in it, it immediately crashes. The issue is when you launch it, steam thinks it is a new app and is unaware that it is launching from a compdata folder, so it makes a new one and migrates the process to the new prefix. When I go to add the installed app to steam I navigate to the before mentioned directory and add it again as a non-steam game. When you run the installer steam makes a new appid for the app the users comp data folder (in Ubuntu based systems it would look like /home/user/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/appid#) and installs the app to the wine prefix located in the directory. My issue comes to running the app once it is installed. I am aware of the check box in the properties window that allows you to force steam to launch an app with proton, and I can get the installer to run. Has anyone managed to figure out how to install a non-steam game or application through proton.
