Hi!
I'm trying to run Textractor in the same wine prefix as the game (1273260).
I tried both Proton 6.3-8 and 7.0-2 with the same result.

Steps:

  1. Install 1273260 with Proton compatibility
  2. protontricks 1273260 shell
  3. wine ~/Downloads/Textractor-5.2.0-Setup.exe

Result in the error

07bc:err:winediag:nodrv_CreateWindow Application tried to create a window, but no driver could be loaded.
07bc:err:winediag:nodrv_CreateWindow Make sure that your X server is running and that $DISPLAY is set correctly.

I can launch the game itself using steam just fine. I can also launch the exe using system-provided wine

Also, doing:

  1. protontricks 1273260 --gui
  2. Select the default wineprefix
  3. Run

Results in the same error

Finally, I'm not sure if it's expected, but the game doesn't launch if terminal with the protontricks shell is alive. (From the Textractor's thread it seems that somebody was able to launch protontricks shell -> start game -> wine the exe file in the protontricks)

Any ideas?

It seems that it's protontricks issue, probably related to https://github.com/Matoking/protontricks/issues/145
