Once you launched it like this, it can itself launch AoE.
#STEAM AGE OF EMPIRES 2 MAC WINE HOW TO#
If you cant right-click games in Steam on WINE, thats a problem I dont know how to fix. If you want to run capturage again, no need to reinstall it, it is there: “$STEAMAPPS/common/Proton - Experimental/proton” run “$STEAMAPPS/compatdata/813780/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Local/Programs/CaptureAge/CaptureAge.exe” If you add -nostartup on the Mac Steam, it doesnt transfer to the WINE Steam since they are considered different computers. Use the same Proton than the one you’re launching AoE with, it could be something else than Proton - Experimental. STEAM_COMPAT_DATA_PATH=”$STEAMAPPS/compatdata/813780” STEAM_COMPAT_CLIENT_INSTALL_PATH=”/home/REPLACE/.steam” WINEPREFIX=”$STEAMAPPS/compatdata/813780/pfx”ĭownload and copy CaptureAgeSetup.exe in the drive_c of your wine profile (or elsewhere), then run: “$STEAMAPPS/common/Proton - Experimental/proton” run “$STEAMAPPS/compatdata/813780/pfx/drive_c/CaptureAgeSetup.exe” Hello, I’m able to launch captureage inside proton without copying the folder or anything, however, Capturage isn’t able to keep syncing with AoE.Ĭreate an environment variable to store STEAMAPPS path: Then, an error message in the bottom right appears, “Unexpected error encountered in application”, and the loading screen hangs forever. Once I click “watch”, the already running AoE2DE starts the replay automatically, and after about 15-30 seconds the loading screen “Waiting for Interface” appears in CaptureAge. I can see the replays, use the filters, select the one I want to watch. STEAM_COMPAT_DATA_PATH=”/home/user/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/test/“ /home/user/.local/share/Steam/compatibilitytools.d/Proton-6.5-GE-2/proton run /SOMEFOLDER/CaptureAgeSetup.exe

Or, if it’s the first time and I want to install CaptureAge: STEAM_COMPAT_DATA_PATH=”/home/user/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/test/“ /home/user/.local/share/Steam/compatibilitytools.d/Proton-6.5-GE-2/proton run /home/user/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/test/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/Local\ Settings/Application\ Data/Programs/CaptureAge/CaptureAge.exe So, basically, I would run Age Of Empires 2 DE the “normal” way, using the steam launcher with GloriousEggroll 6.5 then, once the game is running, I would launch CaptureAge this way, using the duplicated compatdata folder (here called “test”): Using the same 813780 directory results in only one of the two programs launching, the other one hangs. I managed to have CaptureAge and AoE2DE talk to each other by duplicating the compatdata directory for AoE2DE, and using the duplicata as a base in order to launch both programs at the same time.
