try with Wine-GE instead of Proton-GE, I tried this game yesterday with Wine-GE and it works just fine (I installed vcrun2019 with no issues)

Thanks, I will try this. Which version of Wine-GE id you use?
wise-white•3y ago
I used 7-37

When I try using
Wine-GE-Proton7-37
I get this error:

hmmm I'm not sure what's going on there, maybe check that you have all the wine dependencies, read the pinned message in #🆘-support , there's a link there to check that

Missing multilib/multiarch dependencies?
national-gold•3y ago
Is it possible that we miss to set the paths to the wine libs if we run winetricks?
unwilling-turquoiseOP•3y ago
Yep, installing the dependencies worked( https://github.com/lutris/docs/blob/master/WineDependencies.md )! It still fails when using
Proton-GE-Proton7-50
, but worked with Wine-GE-Proton7-38
. Thank you all for your help.GitHub

you shouldn't be using GE-Proton on desktop linux outside of Steam
unwilling-turquoiseOP•3y ago
I do not know if these are related issues but:
Wine-GE-Proton7-38
Call of the Sea
now starts up, it doesn't give me the error that the "C++ Dependencies" are missing. But when I get to title screen and press Enter
, it gives me an error (in image).
I went to check the logs when I installed vcrun2022
and found these errors, is this normal? https://pastebin.com/9QvNArn0Pastebin

did you already authorize the game in your web browser?
unwilling-turquoiseOP•3y ago
It didn't open the EGS authorize page
reduced-jade•3y ago
that's probably your issue then. the game has browser authorization to link your EGS account to the game
unwilling-turquoiseOP•3y ago
Ah, would there be any reason it is not opening the link automatically?
It usually does for me on other games that have this
wise-white•3y ago
hmmm it didn't ask me to authorize either and it worked
reduced-jade•3y ago
I was hoping authorizing would give access to cloud saves, but nope. There’s an inconsistency between what’s reported to Heroic and the EGS store page indicating cloud saves
unwilling-turquoiseOP•3y ago
It seems like others are having similar issues, so might be unrelated to my
vcrun

Let’s shift over to this post as it is focused on your second issue even though you described it first https://discord.com/channels/812703221789097985/1084174718652928102

looks like the developers updated the game after thursday (I tested it on thursday and you had to manually install vcrun using winetricks and it didn't ask for the epic auth, but not the vcrun stuff appears during launch and it should ask you for the epic auth)
I replied in the other thread with 2 workarounds to make the epic auth show up
