[ISSUE] Unable to launch SWBF II on linux

[Unrectified]

did anyone get battlefront 2 working? I installed it previously on my windows drive (nfts) so I just located the folder on maxima but it cannot start, here the logs:

Thx for replying! But wait did you launch it from windows? Bc I am using arch. Even if bf2 is located on my windows disk I can launch it through ea app itselfs running under ge-proton

[wannkunstbeikor]

No I use openSUSE Tumbleweed

[wannkunstbeikor]

Try deleting the prefix in ~/.local/share/maxima/ and relocate the game and see if there are issues in locating

I want to die, I deleted bf2 and ~/.local/share/maxima, downloaded the game from maxima, located it and still get that error

EDIT: I just download plant vs zombie from maxima, but I get the exact same output. I juste barely see a windows opening for half a second then I get game closed. So it's not BFII related issue
