Proton isn't really useful outside of the Steam client, so I'm not sure what you're trying to get at here. If your Proton tool files are missing/corrupted for some reason, you can use the Verify Local Files feature in the Steam client to re-download them.
Proton actually is very useful outside of the Steam client. One can play No Man's Sky GOG version with only Proton for example :)
@mozo78 It's better to use another tool like Lutris to set that up.
Nope, I don't use Lutris. I prefer to install my games manually :)
Okie~! I've compiled Proton!
~$ make deploy
~$ make redist
Nothing extracted yet.
Feature Request
I confirm:
contain this feature already.
Description: What do you want to be added?
Instead of fiddling with the Steam client and the terminal to figure out where my
proton_dist.tartarball is and why it's not there;Instead of attempting the massive journey of compiling Proton myself and running out of SSD in the process;
I suggest we have binary Proton distributions available via Github.
Justification [optional]: Why integration in Proton instead of Wine?
Or at least make Proton independently downloadable!
