How do I install StarCraft 1.18 on Wine with 64-bit Linux?
I'm trying to install the free StarCraft 1.8 on Linux using Wine.
When I try to run the installer I receive a message:
".../StarCraft-Setup.exe" not supported on this system
Do I need to install the 32-bit version of Wine for it to run?
Update, after installing Wine 32 bit I can run it, but now I have this error message:
00e1:err:module:LdrInitializeThunk "ClientSdk.dll" failed to initialize, aborting

When in doubt, visit WineHQ's AppDB. It's got all sorts of useful information about running programs under Wine. Support for Starcraft 1.18+ is currently listed as "garbage" (doesn't run), but the rating history suggests that if you can get a copy of Wine 3.15, it should work without trouble.

Just learned few days ago that now you non-steam games can be easily run on proton. Just add non-steam game, go to properties, set compability to last proton and that's it, it just works.Sources: Stack Exchange - This article follows the attribution requirements of Stack Exchange and is licensed under CC BY-SA 3.0.
