You know the definitive version is Linux Native?

I know, but I prefer the original edition.

I played a bit of GTA San Andreas, it seems to work fine although i haven't completed much of the quests yet. But other than that everything seems to be working.

Spore and all it's content is working flawlessly expect the internet game content.
The forest works but there is annoying mouse issue and closing the game causes crashing.
DOOM 2016 starts but keeps stopping in error: cannot find default.cfg

Actually I like this Proton, no need to do separate prefixes for Steam games on Lutris.
Next I'm gonna try Fallout 4 and so on.

Quoting: Mountain Man
Quoting: legluondunet
Quoting: RhythagorasTropico 4
Installer can't seem to finish the .NET dependency download/install. Game does not launch as result.

.NET install is not supported in Proton and Wine, you can not install games that need it, it's known issues.

That's what Winetricks is for! Maybe Valve will implement "Protontricks".
I installed Tropic 4 earlier (since the updated Proton Beta) & the .NET install went through without problems & the game now works (for me at least).

We need a sticky post somewhere with clear & idiot proof instructions on how to use Winetricks with Proton, I've tried & screwed it up so badly I had to remove Proton & force steam to reinstall it.

Quoting: legluondunetand you can add your test here:
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeefaYQduMST_lg0IsYxZko8tHLKe2vtVZLFaPNycyhY4bidQ/viewform
Is there a faster way to add tests? This form doesn't save input and I have to retype my OS/hardware/etc for every game.

The Sims 3: worked!

Read on compability sheet that someone bypassing the launcher. I'm trying it and working well by Linux standard. Here's my notes posted there (probably tommorow they'll update the sheets).

QuoteYes, bypassing the launcher as suggested here before works as intended. Game "gamma" are a bit dark, but not unplayable dark, probably due to Mesa driver problems or game problem. Just need adjusting monitor brightness and you good to go.

To bypass the launcher (refined for Linux newbie):
1. Open The Sims(TM) 3 "Bin" directory in Nautilus/File Manager (default is on /home/yourusername/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/The Sims 3/Game/Bin)
2. Find Sims3Launcher.exe and rename it to SimsLauncher.exe.old
3. Open "Bin" directory in Terminal and create a symlink to TS3.exe by typing either "ln -s TS3.exe Sims3Launcher.exe" or "ln -s Sims3Launcher.exe TS3.exe"
4. You're good to go. Enjoy!

Another set of games i was able to run:

  • Borderlands
Video

Game runs out of the box. I didn't have any issue.

  • Dishonored
Video

Also runs out of the box without any issue.

  • Mass Effect
Video

This one needs a quick fix for audio but other than that no issues. Refer to here for the fix.

  • Mass Effect 2
Video

This one did not need sound fix and worked out of the box for me.

Well i had some more time playing GTA:SA and it is sadly not free of bugs, using the camera makes the window freeze, so the last mission you can complete is green saber.
