In addition to running the custom Proton version that has been linked, I had to run the following commands
wget https://download.microsoft.com/download/9/3/F/93FCF1E7-E6A4-478B-96E7-D4B285925B00/vc_redist.x64.exe
cabextract vc_redist.x64.exe
cabextract a10
cp ucrtbase.dll ~/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/data/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/1466860/pfx/drive_c/windows/system32/
The last command is for flatpak users. I think, for non-flatpak users it is cp ucrtbase.dll /home/$USER/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/1466860/pfx/drive_c/windows/system32/
Game froze some times, even after restarting the game. Restarting the whole system however and no crashes afterwards anymore
Running Steam with Flatpak, installed Steam Tools for Easy Anti Cheat, switched Proton to bleeding edge and ran the game with Proton experimental. For controller support I had to configure desktop support (with gamepad template) and then it worked like on Windows.
Some things take longer to load than on Windows.
On Steam Linux Runtime, this game crashed in the loading screen. With the fix below, it works with Proton without any problems.
- Navigate to
{PathToYourSteamLibrary}/steamapps/common/Tropico6
- Delete the
Launcher
folder, e.g. by usingrm -rf {PathToYourSteamLibrary}/steamapps/common/Tropico6/Launcher
