Testing 64-bit game on Wine 8, that depends on 32-bit Steam?

Post by ajmas »

I need to be able to see if a 64-bit game works withe Wine 8, but I am stuck because Steam is a 32-bit binary. I can use Steam with CrossOver based variants via x84on64 (Wine 7.7), but I with Wine 8 the experimental WoW64 is not stable enough to do this. Right now the installer displays a grey window devoid of text or buttons. For this reason I can't investigate whether the game works with Wine 8.

Can anyone suggest if there is a way to get a 64-bit game running with Wine 8, despite Steam being a 32-bit executable?
