Two self-contained scripts for getting SWBF2 (2017, AppID 1237950) working
with GE-Proton on Linux — no dependency on the ubuntu-post-install framework.
setup-swbf2-wolf.sh — for Wolf/Games-on-Whales + Moonlight streaming
setup-swbf2-linux.sh — for native Linux Steam (no Docker)
Both implement the same core fix:
- msiextract bypass for JunoConfigureRegistry Wine incompatibility
- EA Desktop files copied into Wine prefix from extracted MSI
- link2ea_fix.reg + ea_services.reg written to drive_c
- Launch wrapper that imports .reg files via Proton on every launch
(direct system.reg edits are overwritten by wineserver on shutdown)
Wolf version also handles Docker cp, container paths, STEAM_UNIX_SOCKET,
and localconfig.vdf directory locking inside the Wolf state folder.
