Some crashes when accessing the main menu and the multiplayer login screen.
May crash sometimes when logging in multiplayer
Works well with Proton 8 and Experimental.
Starts good (singleplay)
Played with Proton 8.0-2.
All text is tiny, but still readable
It works out of the box but an older Proton version must be used (based on the previous reports I used version 4.13)
The current proton version (5.09 I think) has a problem of graphical degradation (some texture are black).
I had to do the thing with editing OPTIONS.txt, which did not exist, so I had to create it. Now I don't remember which line it was, because after successfully launching the game created a bunch of extra settings in that
Installed and Ran Tutorial Mission Fine without any tweaks
Had the same 'shader model 3.0' error and tried to find OPTIONS.txt at '~/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/660160/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/My Documents/My Games/FieldOfGlory2', but it was not there. I found a quite good hint at 'https://steamcommunity.com/app/660160/discussions/0/1744479063998845036/' to simply build that file if you do not find it. I included 'RezX xxxx (width of yr current display setting) | RezY yyyy (height of yr current display setting) | Fullscreen 0' and the game started like a linux native.
UnknownMy options.txt doesn't have Fullscreen in it, so I can't set i Fullscreen 0.
I looked via
sean@sean-desktop:/$ grep -i full '/home/sean/extra/SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/Field of Glory II/Core/UI/Options.txt' // ------------ Full Screen // Windowed --------- string IDS_OPT_FULLSCREEN_ON string IDS_OPT_FULLSCREEN_OFF string IDS_OPT_FULLSCREEN_OFF_FRAMED
All those "string" options seem to be associated with specific resolutions, but I can't just set something to 0 like the other folks suggest. I get the "failed to created device for rendering.
I trad setting PROTON_NO_D3D11=1 %command% as a launch option as other folks suggested, still no dice.
really sad. wanted to try this game.

Do what the guys suggesting you change the options.txt say and it works perfectly from what i saw.
Unknown(2+ hours with Proton)After tweaking Options.txt, this game works shockingly well on my Thinkpad X230.

After clicking on 'play game' on splash screen, and getting a message that it will attempt to connect to the internet, get full screen 'black screen', which then switches to three other sizes of all black window before giving "Failed to create device for rendering. Invalid resolution, or cannot run without at least shader model 3.0 (0)" error.
Tried PROTON_USE_WINED3D, PROTON_NO_D3D11 and PROTON_NO_ESYNC options separately without any success. Not tried them together.
Unknown(> 10 hours with Proton)In ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/660160/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/My\ Documents/My\ Games/FieldOfGlory2/OPTIONS.TXT apply these settings(or the game may not launch and just give err about not being able to create device for render/not having at least shader model 3.0) : RezX xxx(yr current monitor width) RezY yyy(yr current monitor height) Fullscreen 0
Unknown(> 10 hours with Proton)Edit ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/660160/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/My\ Documents/My\ Games/FieldOfGlory2/OPTIONS.TXT. Change Fullscreen 1 to Fullscreen 0. Single and multiplayer works. Scenario editor works. 146 hours played.

UnknownUnknown(2+ hours with Proton)Works great once you edit OPTIONS.TXT. That file was not in the same place as for others. I found it in /Steam/steamapps/common/Field of Glory II/Core/UI
Unknown(2+ hours with Proton)Unknown(an hour with Proton)Initially game crashed with The launcher starts but the games crashes. "Failed to create device for rendering. Invalid resolution or cannot run without at least shader model 3.0 (0)'. To fix that one need to apply fix described in https://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=30764
- Go to <steam-library</steamapps/compatdata/660160/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/My Documents/My Games/FieldOfGlory2.
- Open OPTIONS.TXT.
- Change RezX to your horizontal resolution (mine is RezX 1920).
- Change RezY to your vertical resolution (mine is RezX 1200).
- Change Fullscreen to 0.
After that the game can be run. I hadn't observed any issues, although it was my first play ever.
