- Get Wine.
Any flavour should work, such as vanilla wine, wine-staging, a custom blend, proton or some version paired with EGS from Lutris. I use a version of staging that has been patched to work with MWO. - Install egs by running
wine msiexec /i EpicInstaller-10.7.0.msi - Find the install directory and start EGS with
wine EpicGamesLauncher.exe -SkipBuildPatchPrereq
EGS will fail if you start it without the -SkipBuildPatchPrereq flag. - Install MW5 trough EGS.
- Close EGS.
- In order to get in-game cinematics to work, you need to install Media Foundation from
https://github.com/z0z0z/mf-install - In order to get DX11 to perform properly, install dxvk. This should be available with instructions for most Linux distributions. Just remember to enable it for the wineprefix MW5 is under. When dxvk is enabled, EGS storefront will have graphical glitching, so this is best done after installing the game.
- Play MW5.
