Sigh, having lots of trouble getting Wine to play my Windows games on recent Debian.
I fix a game, and then I think it works, then I go play another one and I fix that one then I go back to the first one and now it's also broken
@JordiGH hmmm. Isolating game-specific Wine configurations from each other is one thing that Steam does pretty well, but I'd like to follow your lead and distance myself from what is essentially a big ol' DRM system. If you figure out a good workflow here I'm super keen to read about it.
@JordiGH are you using Lutris?
@florekm Yes. What do you use?
@JordiGH hm so not sure why you have problems. In Lutris you should have separated environments for each game so settings for one should not affect others.

@florekm I'm thinking the sound drivers I'm using are just unstable and the sound is getting locked up by one game when going to another.

I don't know, I'm just guessing.

@JordiGH Not experienced enough but my problems are usually resolved by selecting proper wine/proton version for each title. I've noticed that for some games using proton-ge binaries downloaded from github worked better than those provided by lutris, not sure why. Sometimes it also helps to add Lutris game to steam and run it from there.
@florekm I'm very deliberately avoiding Steam, so maybe that's part of my trouble.
@JordiGH I think I've found Proton to work better.
@Aaron_Davis I think I am using Proton via wine-ge builds.
