Tinker Steps:Switch to older version: 4.11-13, winetricks
WINEPREFIX=/home/"username"/.steam/debian-installation/steamapps/compatdata/517810/pfx winetricks dotnet20
According to others a lower 4.x? proton version allows the .Net 2.0 install to work from terminal at least.
You have to run the winetricks command from terminal;
WINEPREFIX=/home/username/.steam/debian-installation/steamapps/compatdata/517810/pfx winetricks dotnet20 d3dx9_29
the next part is run task manager with protontricks, new task...cmd then browse to steamapp install directory and run the C4/RegisterDLL.bat. (There is probably an easier way to do this)
CMD:
cd .steam/steam/steamapps/common/caesar 4/C4
registerdll.bat
After that the game works great.
