Ubuntu - Unity games on Bottles

[zecazeca]

Hello.

Still in my first baby steps in Linux world.
Recently converted my Macbook Pro Retina 2012 from Catalina to Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS and not going back
Is there anyone playing Unity games on Ubuntu with Bottles that can give me a few pointers?
I've just created a "game" bottle but so far haven't been able to run any game. Usually i run the .exe file and it does nothing, not even an error.
As an example, i'm trying to run the game "Max Gentlemen Sexy Business! [v2.18] [The Men Who Wear Many Hats]" and it gives the error below, even though the folder "Business_Data" exists.
I even went to the properties of Business.exe and changed it to "Executable as program".



Any insight towards understanding this will be much appreciated.
Thank you all for your contribute.

Hi. Welcome to the Linux club, champ! I will guide you and help you achieve your desire.
Firstly, you need to open your software store and download a program called Lutris and open it once. Let it do it's work. Once it's finished, close it and download a program called ProtonPlus and open it. Select Lutris at the left side and click the "Wine-GE" tab. Download the one named "GE-Proton8-26." Once it's finished downloading and installing, open a new folder in Home folder and name it whatever you desire. Now, open Lutris and click the "+" button. Select "Add locally installed game." At the game info tab, write the name of the game you want to play and select runner as Wine. Click "Game options" tab, select your game's exe as Executable and select the folder you created at the Home folder as "Wine prefix." Click the save button at the right and finally, click the Play button.
BTW, I don't like Ubuntu but if it's your first time using Linux, it's okay.
