The only game i still can't get to work is Star Trek Starfleet Command III. Tried everything, followed the instructions from the lutris site...nothing works. Using the gog version.
Whats abnormal is its trying to use Windows garbage! But looks like a C++ issue regardless. I stopped trying to install games via disk years ago, I completely converted over to Steam only. And one of the reasons why, is because I never could get any game to work in Wine.
Hopefully, you get this GOG game fixed.
Yeah, even with C++ installed does not fix the problem. I know steam fixes everything for windows just by using proton. But i want to understand why this problem is not fixed under lutris and what it needs to get it running haha.
Thanks for this tip. Was looking at a different guide on this, but nothing really made sense to me. Something about putting this into the .var folder. Also it suggested adding a Wine package. Due to not wanting to mess around with the OS itself too much and break something, I chose to stop.
But this worked great for me.
Also I am new to ZorinOS. Loving 16 so far.

I am loving your avatar too! I am glad the new PROTON is working for you. Wine is just too difficult to manage for most of us. Michel became king of it overnight, don't ask me how, but he dominated that software and made it his, you know what lol.
Welcome To Zorin OS 16 BTW, happy to have you hear and enjoying the OS.

Thanks for the welcome. Proton was the final step for me to move over to Linux as my daily driver. It's almost there, and I think the Steam Deck will be the turning point up next.
I tried a few other distro's this week, but Zorin was the only one that worked fine out of the box. Not sure why. But I'm here and enjoying it. Def. gonna recommend it for Windows users looking for an option.

Hi TCi, for the official builds in steam just use the search function in steam and write proton. You get a list which proton versions you can download. The ge versions are custom builds with alot of fixes that are not included yet in the steam proton.
Just an update. While Back 4 Blood starts and works fine in the lobby, it does not work in a party in campaign.
I guess I will have to be a bit more patient for a future update.
Does that game use anti cheat ? If yes that might be the problem
Edit:
That is correct. It worked before, and this custom version resolved most of the issues, but sadly not the main issue. My bad for jumping to thinking it was fine.

Nice, will update it asap 
I wonder how you can enable settings like these in steam.
Steam allows opening of games via launch commands. If you right click the game, go to properties. You will find a launch command box. But that box shares a quality that terminal has. All spelling and syntax must be 100% correct.
You can find Steam launch commands from a Google search. From there you can learn what commands you can do, and how to input them properly. But yes, you can launch games with certain commands, like telling it to only use DirectX 11 or 10 or 9.

Thanks will look into that. Sadly for custom added games those options are not available

Notes:
-Fsync has been disabled on all Uplay titles -- it causes Uplay to hang on "Looking for patches" when initiationg a new prefix. Esync works fine.
-Various Uplay titles that have a vulkan native mode (Rainbow 6 siege) need the overlay disabled in order not to crash. DX11 mode works fine.
-For games that have a protonfix that uses the uplay overlay disable -- if creating a new prefix you will need to relaunch the game a second time. Uplay completely removes any pre-existing configurations on first launch, so any appending to the file gets removed. Upon re-launch the option will be re-appended and uplay will then see it.
-uplay likes to hang out after the game has closed -- make sure you close it in the task manager.
