Proton versions are in the "common" directory beside all your games Then we set the path to the proton version we want. Similarly to WINEPREFIX=, we set the path to the steam prefix. Let's explain this: STEAM_COMPAT_DATA_PATH=/path/to/compatdata/22330/ /path/to/Proton\ x.x/proton run desired.exe Assuming default file paths, you would enter this into a terminal: STEAM_COMPAT_DATA_PATH=~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/22330/ ~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Proton\ 5.0/proton run ~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Oblivion/Mopy/Wrye\ Bash.exe You should use whatever Proton version gives the best results for you. I used Proton 5.0 when writing this, because 5.13 didn't work.
We want to launch Wrye Bash in the same prefix as Oblivion, with the same proton version. Now, the next tips I got directly from Kat's blog, from this post in particular. We take the Mopy folder and put it into the Oblivion folder. At the moment of writing this, there is a lot going on about moving it over to python 3, so the occasional bug will crop up. You can find it on Nexusmods, but if you encounter any problems, you should join the discord and test the WIP version. We'll be using the Standalone Executable. You will find your savegames inside drive_c/users/steamuser/My Documents/My Games/Oblivion/. Inside this prefix, you will find a structure similar to Windows. Our prefix folder would be: ~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/22330/pfx/
Instead of in the common directory, it's in the compadata folder and instead of the game name it uses the game ID. Steam creates a proton prefix directory for installed games. If you installed steam somewhere else, or made another library and installed Oblivion there, you need to adapt the paths appropriately.Īssuming that, your Oblivion directory would be here: ~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Oblivion/ One is the game directory, one is the prefix which includes folders for your ini and savegames.įrom now on, I will assume that steam is installed in ~/.local/share/Steam. Steam has two locations for your game files. Only continue if your game works fine unmodded! Step 3) Understanding Steam Locations. If you are having trouble, protondb might prove useful, to see how other people solved theirs. I'm not really playing on proton myself, and I did encounter some problems like needing to select a certain proton version or having to add "PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 %command%" to the launch options. Unfortunately, this is not the place to help you get the base game up and running. As on windows, if you have a controller plugged in and don't want to use it, set bUse Joystick=0 You should also set all other settings, like resolution, graphics, perhaps keybinds. Skipping the annoying intro videos doesn't work on Linux, so you might want to edit the ini to remove them.

Once this is set, you can install Oblivion normally.

If you're playing on Linux, you most likely already know how to enable Proton for all titles. My method has problems with proton versions newer than 5, I believe.

Guys! Check out this blog entry here of someone who actually plays this game on Steam :D This seems to work with newer proton versions as well and I currently don't have the time or brain cells to update my guide. The goal is to have Oblivion via Proton, with OBSE, a working Wrye Bash and the Construction Set. This is planned as a simple post, just outlining the differences between Steam and GOG (as described in my or Kat's guide).
