Runs out of the Box. No Tinkering needed
WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ddraw=n,b" %command%
Music won't Start and the Trigger Points may Crash your game.
You will need protontricks to get Gothic 2 gold running and a compatibility setting as well as additional tinkering.
1.Install Gothic 2 Gold
2.Go into Properties> General tab and set launch option to
WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ddraw=n,b"
3.Download and add GE-Proton9-1 release into your /home/user/.steam/steam/compatibilitytools.d directory, restart steam
4.Go into game properties compatibility tab and check Force the use of the specific game compatibility tool with GE-Proton9-1
5.Run the game once, it will crash.
6.Install protontricks.
7.In CLI terminal run
protontricks 39510 directmusic
8.Go into your Gothic 2 wineprefix directory should look like this /home/user/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/39510/pfx
Find the file user.reg,edit it with a text editor
Scroll and make sure your [Software\Wine\DllOverrides] looks like this https://pastebin.com/LXg8aX88 Remove "*dsound"="native", after installing with protontricks or the game will crash.
11.Enjoy Audio:Other
No music without directmusic from protontricks Instability:Frequently
Without these steps the game crashed constantly.
No music, constant crashes with a weird error if no directmusic is installed via protontricks and you need to put WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ddraw=n,b" in order to get the game running
Game crashes without following the steps provided, took me a day and a bunch of research with different proton versions to get it running.
