Quoting: UncleivanIm trying to run doom steam version via wine staging and playonlinux on antergos and a GTX 1080 and the game doenst run either with the regular exe or vulkan exe. Is there anything specific i need to do?

Sorry, I do not understand what you're doing. The only exe you have to call is the exe of the steam installer (exe or msi).

Under Xubuntu 16.10 I just use the official PPA:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:wine/wine-builds
sudo apt-get update


Then I've installed steam under wine. For example:
wget https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/client/installer/SteamSetup.exe
wine start SteamSetup.exe


After that I just started my steam client under wine (over the desktop icon wine has created) and launched Doom. (Need some time to download.)

That's all I did.

For optional Vulkan support I've installed:
sudo apt-get install libvulkan-dev libvulkan1 vulkan-utils

Fixed it, ran a clean install, http://www.codelecture.com/wp/install-doom-2016-on-wine-in-ubuntu-linux-playonlinux-w-subs/


Used the FAQ in the link, game runs out of the box, perfect performance with vulkan.

Just a small hint for those who thought a 32bit steam install would work and don't want to download the 60GB again in a 64bit steam wine bottle (as moving the files will not work if you have insufficient hard-drive space to initialize the installation again):

Just add another steam library folder that references the steamapps folder in the 32bit wine bottle and it will work fine.

Congratulation! :)

It seems I had problems with the 375.20 binary driver. The game has hung-up during load screens when I used vulkan. After updating to the 375.26 driver I can't reproduced the problem any more. Played 2h with vulkan without any problems. The game runs very smoothly. Have played Doom 20 years ago. What a fun! :)

Hoping in here to report that I have it now up&running with PlayOnLinux and a new 64bit prefix and Wine 2.0RC5-staging. I copied over the game files from my windows partition which worked without problems. The game runs fine and I haven't had any crashes or hangups for now. I'm very glad that I can play this jewel on Linux now. :D

Snapmap and multiplayer seems to work now. Quick test with 2.0RC6-staging. I can choose this options now without crashes. The game also has created a Doom SteamID for me. :D

Have not found a public party yet. I need to set something in the game options I think. Will try on weekend.

I saw only a few minor graphic glitches. It runs very stable with nvidia binary driver 375.26. I've been playing for several hours.

Wow! I actually read most of that post before realising it was spam. That's probably the longest it ever took me. Good effort. Not good enough though.
