Installing PortProton (Using WINE Proton without STEAM) linux-gaming.ru

PortProton is a project that aims to make it easier for both novice and experienced users to run Windows games on Linux. The project aims to make the process of running games (and other software) as easy as possible, but at the same time provides flexible settings for experienced users.

Attention Official website of the project from September 2022: https://linux-gaming.ru. Any other site is fake!

If you need to install on SteamDeck, follow these instructions... https://linux-gaming.ru/t/ustanovka-portproton-na-steamdeck/49

I don't understand, how can you make it easier to run games than pressing start on Steam?

nonSteam games, pirated games, maybe your setup or you yourself needs different settings for whatever reason, console emulation, and more

from the above link:

It is based on Valve's version of WINE (Proton) and its modifications (Proton GE). It includes a set of scripts combined with wine-proton itself, a Steam Runtime Sniper container with the addition of ported versions of MANGOHUD (displaying useful information in the game window: FPS, FrameTime, CPU, GPU, etc.) and vkBasalt (improving graphics in games, very good in conjunction with FSR, DLSS) + many already configured optimizations for maximum performance.

One-click automatic installation (on the AUTO-install tab) of popular launchers such as: WGC, Epic Games, BattleNET, Origin, EVE Online, RockStar, Ubisoft connect, League of Legends and many others has been implemented.

For console game lovers, there are many console emulators available (under the EMULATORS tab): PPSSPP, Citra, Cemu, ePSXe, MAME and many more...
