Wine is not supported
Attempted to remove references to "wine/wine_get_version" using sed
on the game files. Error instead changed to read "Windows 7 is not supported", despite my wine config being set to Windows 10.
I initially tried using a script to remove all references in the game files to wine/wine_get_version using sed. After doing this the error changed to "Windows 7 is not supported. I then attempted to change the Windows version via protontricks, but this did not work. Whatever method is detecting Win7 is not responding to wine settings.
Even trying to work around it, I cannot. It is potentially possible, but I'd rather spend my time just playing a different game.
The direct blocking of wine, and apparently windows 7 is, according to Shroud, to "prevent cheating".
I tried to disable the detection of wine by editing all of the files in the game directory. I used the command find ./** -type f -exec sh -c "sed -i s/wine/eniw/g {}" \;
. This did work at disabling the wine detection feature, however, even after changing the winecfg to use Windows 10, the game would not launch with the error "Windows 7 is not supported".
If anyone can get around this it might be possible to make it run.
I wish I knew what method they were using to detect the windows version. It appears to be faulty in relation to wine.
