Order of Battle Linux

[terminator]

I recently had problems with my hard drive on one of my computers. I wasted two days trying to reinstall windows 7 without success (preinstalled version)
I changed hard drive and installed Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver) in up to 2 hours (with updates). Works perfectly
I can no longer play many games but some independent games that I own on GOG.com are compatible Linux

Did you try with Wine? Probably won't help but perhaps could be worth a shot.

Oder of battle has a Silver rating with Steam Play Proton. proton uses a custom version of Wine.

But I can not get it to even get to the first screen. Some comments on the Stream Forum do say there is a start problem but a work around using the tab key (if I recall correctly) but I can not even get far enough to try that .

I am running Linux Mint 19.3 which is based on Ubuntu 18.04.

Order of Battle requires DX11. On Proton, DX11 is translated into Vulkan by default. Check that your graphics card supports Vulkan. If Vulkan is not supported, the following launch option will use Wine's standard OpenGL backend:

Code: Select all

PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 %command%

The game is playable, but a bit laggy, with the OpenGL backend on my system. Sound glitches are also frequent. However, my hardware is quite old.

My system is Debian unstable, AMD FX8150 CPU, and AMD HD6970 GPU.

My Brother is into Virtual Machines I think it is called you can have a pc that runs on windows then I think have it boot to Linux or even a bare bones windows install so it minimizes conflicts doing this and figuring it out should take no mare than about 2 weeks of trial and error aggravation but may be worth considering.
