Wine 9.4 - TCP socket changes - how to use these with Proton?

Post by eldomtom2 »

Apparently Wine 9.4 adds support for TCP socket features that a game I wish to play, Zusi 3, uses. I don't know the specifics of these features, but obviously I would like to try running Zusi 3 with support for them. How do I do this? I have Zusi 3 installed via Steam.

According to a Google Translated post on the Zusi forums, you can "apply the change now included in 9.4 to wine-proton and copy the resulting DLL files into my Proton 9 installation", but I have no idea how to do this.

Please do not recommend just running the game through Wine 9.4 - I have tried this and it fails to launch.

Found out that this is the commit in question: https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/m ... uests/5195 Is there any way to get these changes into Proton?

I copied over the files changed in that commit to the Proton source, compiled it, and it worked. So that's one way to do it I guess.
