I FOUND THIS VIDEO TO BYPASS THE GEARS OF WAR STARTUP ON LINUX
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_aCcwb7UHzM&t=113s

For play you need by pass the launcher, get the file http://pastebin.com/CyU6gZYg
and put in to *WINEPREFIX*/drive_c/users/*USER*/Application Data/Microsoft Games/Gears of War/CurrentSite/default.html

export WINEPREFIX=/mnt/Docs/Games/steamwine
wine Startup.exe -nomoviestartup


BUT I can't execute the next command:
export WINEPREFIX=/mnt/Docs/Games/steamwine

the directory does not exist

help please

MORE IMPORTANT INFORMATION, ITS ABOUT OSX BUT THE SAME PROBLEM, IT SHOWS THE SAME SOLUTION:

WINEPREFIX is the location of your "fake" windows. The default location is ~/.wine (a hidden directory in your home folder)

If you haven't set a WINEPREFIX when you installed your games, both games are installed in the default location and there is no need to specify this location with the export command.

Yeah, and I was searching manually on hidden .wine folder the next directory /Docs/Games/steamwine but nothing...

Im using a gears of war portable version pre installed on windows, its on my desktop, i can execute it using the commands wine Startup.exe -nomoviestartup or wine Startup.exe

Other doubt about the default.htm file

For play you need by pass the launcher, get the file http://pastebin.com/CyU6gZYg
and put in to *WINEPREFIX*/drive_c/users/*USER*/Application Data/Microsoft Games/Gears of War/CurrentSite/default.html


I found the directory, but the file extension isn't .html is htm

https://pastebin.com/CyU6gZYg

The code is a .txt file ¿What i need to do?

¿I need to rename the CyU6gZYg.txt file to default.htm to copy and replace it for the original default.htm file from *WINEPREFIX*/drive_c/users/*USER*/Application Data/Microsoft Games/Gears of War/CurrentSite/ folder? ¿or I need to open the original default.htm file using a note pad editor and paste the provided CyU6gZYg.txt code?

¿I need to replace all the older code deleting it or only some parts?

thanks
