Has anyone got this working, It sort of works now in the "official" as in provided setup through Crossover, in a XP bottle.
Lately Blizzard tells me that WinXP support is ending soon and to upgrade to at least Windows 7.
Has anyone have this working in another bottle? I will do some testing myself and follow up here.
Using Crossover 16.2
I have a post about this somewhere on the Linux general. Currently, I have a 64 bit bottle I am using. The process is set wine to WinXP, 2003, or Vista, then open the battle.net app. You may perform any updates required. Then, leave the app open and set wine to Win7/8/8.1/10 or 2008 R1/R2. Run the game using the "switcher" executable in the drive. I have not tried using "play" button in the app because I like to run the 64 bit versions. The app still tells you that WinXP will be unsupported soon, but ignore it. Chat works.
I don't know what game you are trying but I have both SC2 and Heroes working just fine.
I will need to do a bottle rebuild to test everything out, but I have via wine a fully functional setup with Blizzard App and all the working games installed and running fine.
WIn10 x64 for the prefix
Several titles did need to be run as 32-bit thru Blizzard App (HotS, Hearthstone), and Diablo3 needed me to go into the winecfg and peg the D3 launcher executable to be winxp.
Running under latest wine-staging.
The only title not working (SC:Remaster I do not own) is Destiny2, and that is very broken still under wine. Everything else works, with Overwatch being the slacker at playable only, the rest quite good (play D3:RoS and WoW alot).
