I use bottles to run the installers, and then have steam do the rest. It works shockingly well.
Ok, so I managed to run the installer with the help of bottles and it seemingly succeeds, but "add to steam" does nothing and when I try the add new game option in steam, the game is nowhere to be found.
It's like the installer is trying to tell the system where the game is but only bottles is listening and it can't actually run it 🙁
When installing the game with bottles make sure you mount the folder you want the game to install to as a drive in bottles. Then I point steam at the folder by adding a non-steam game and forcing the use of proton support in the options for the non-steam game in steam.
