How the fuck is that gonna work
How likely is it that Proton can be used to make native Windows applications (especially CAD-Software) run on Linux? Beside my own desperate desire to do that I guess there are others out there to eagerly switch OS. For the software providers it seems to be a great opportunity to acquired new customers (at first glance).
Proton is well developed for games, but not for apps. But Wine itself is not as well taken cared for. Without tricks, patches and prayers, most complex apps don’t run on it. Or if they load, they crash quickly afterwards.
Which CAD app are you trying to run? If it’s 2D, have you tried QCad/Cam?
Gstarcad 2022 and 2023 (I haven’t tested the latest versions) work perfectly on linux via wine and are 100% compatible with autodesk’s dwg format.
Valve hasn’t heard of imperative mood for changelog entries, it seens.
what does “Desktop Only” mean in this context?
Mostly that it doesn’t work on Steam Deck. Hits memory limits IIRC.
