In Lutris I created an account, on the Lutris website I added battle.net launcher and Overwatch to my library, then I clicked “Synchronize library” which created a battle.net and an Overwatch icon in the Lutris launcher, but they’re both “greyed out” and the terminal where I issued the “$ lutris” command says this:
$ lutris

My system is KUbuntu 18.10, i7-8700k, GTX 1080Ti, 64GB RAM. I’m an enthusiast gamer and just switched to Linux a couple days ago when I heard about Steam Play Wine Proton, because I’m really tired of Windows 10. The Steam stuff worked out of the box (yay), and now I’m trying to get Blizzard stuff to run too.
I read a bunch of instructions on the Lutris prerequisites and made sure NVidia drivers are installed and I copied the dxvk0.93.tar.gz contents to ~/.local/share/lutris/runtime/dxvk/0.93 folder I created so it looks like this:
linux:~/.local/share/lutris/runtime/dxvk/0.93$ ls .
setup_dxvk.verb x32 x64
I also created a ~/Games folder. Wine 3.18 is installed on the system too.
I tried googling for that “No such file or directory: ‘blizzard/user.reg’” error message but didn’t get anything. So I basically have no idea what’s going on right now.
Thanks for any help you can give me!
EDIT:
Oh, i just removed the battlenet client and just tried with Overwatch alone (I purged bnet from my library), and now lots of stuff is going on and it actually installs the battlenet launcher and starts it! Now it seems inside the bnet launcher I can now install overwatch! This will take a while, I’ll update this posting afterwards!
OMG it works!! xD
So, for anyone reading this: The trick is to NOT try and install the bnet launcher, it will not work and give weird error messages that cannot be googled!
Instead, just install the game directly, it will automatically install the bnet app with it!
