Battle Net Download Linux

Posted on  by

World of Warcraft does not support 32-bit operating systems. To continue playing, you need to upgrade to a 64-bit operating system. Thankfully, BattleNet works pretty well on Linux. To get BattleNet working on Linux, you won’t be able to use a terminal-based downloading tool like Wget or cURL. Instead, you will need to download the program manually, by heading over to the BattleNet website. As you are on Linux, the BattleNet EXE will not automatically open. I can start Battle.net successfully in PlayOnLinux using Wine 2.1 staging. (Was also working with prior versions, but that's what I am presently using.) I can confirm that you need to use a Windows 7 prefix. Are you using Wine in 32 bit? That's what is working for me. I will suspect that WineHQ stable does not use the staging version of Wine.

Guys,
so anyone have actually tried or am playing Battle.net under Mint 19 currently? Because it seems to me that it is broken, unless I am doing something wrong. After 20 hours or so of trying things like PlayOnLinux and such I was finally able to launch Battle.net farely easy using this solution here: https://lutris.net/games/battlenet/ (IMPORTANT: if you search for World of Warcraft on Lutris you will NOT get this page and installer. You will get the other one, that would not even start for me on Mint). Problem is that I can't get it to work persistently. E.g. it started for me one day, but crushed with Application encountered an unexpected error the other day.
Now I do understand that the software itself was coded like shit and glitches of Battle.net are reported even for Windows daily. But what can we, Mint users, do to have it available and working? Battle net download linux vm

    - The installer provides a pre-generated DXVK state cache to provide stutter-free experience. As a result, it will cause a temporary performance hit while the shaders are being compiled. The FPS will rise back up after it has finished.

    This installer is a draft. It hasn't been reviewed and might not be finished.

    Standard installer + patches for hearthstone.

    The only difference at the time of writing are these sections:

    - task:
    name: set_regedit
    path: HKEY_CURRENT_USERsoftwareWineX11 Driver
    key: UseTakeFocus
    value: 'no'prefix: $GAMEDIR

    wine:
    dxvk: true
    esync: true
    overrides:
    nvapi: disabled
    nvapi64: disabled
    locationapi.dll: disabled

    ideally it would get merged into the standard script
