Gothic II: Gold Edition
Tinker Steps:Custom Proton: GE-Proton7-37, protontricks
Everything mostly worked but background music in game was missing. To fix this I needed to do two things.
- Use protontricks to install the entire directmusic package.
- Open: /home/deck/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/39510/pfx/user.reg Find the [Software\Wine\DllOverrides] then delete the line for "*dsound"="native" and finally save the file.
After doing that the game works great using mod launcher and the following workshop mods:
- Union - Patch for Gothic 2
- Ninja -D3D11 Rendering Mod
- zGamePad - complete gamepad support
- Texture Pack by Artemiano
- (optional) Gothic II Classic
I'm using the latest GE but I suspect this process would work fine on the default proton version as well.
Control Layout:Switch To Gamepad With Joystick Trackpad
Battery Performance:
Set the game to run at 40hz/40fps and set TDP to 7w.
Audio:Other
There is no in game BGM unless directmusic / dsound adjust is made.
If your resultion ends up out of wack go into video settings and make sure you set it to 1280×800x32 during my tinkering it ended up changing to 1280×800x16.
