We may need to detect if the game was installed to steam, then launch the game via steam://
You would expect to accomplish this via steam://launch/2229850/option1
, but the problem is the other two options don't have a Launch Type: https://steamdb.info/app/2229850/config/
I have tested this with various options like steam://launch/2229850/option3
to launch FinalAlert2YR without success.
I'm putting a comment here so I can follow this issue. With the release of the steam version of RA2, I would like to try to install CnCNet and run it via Proton.
I managed to get this running today on Pop_OS 22.04 using SteamTinkerLaunch
to install CnCNet into the existing YR prefix. Maybe this issue is fixed?
I'm having performance issues, but they seem to be related to this thread. I'll keep working at it.
Performance issues fixed by not setting a specific resolution in ddraw.ini
and adding WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ddraw.dll=n,b" %command%
as a launch option
Also leaving a comment to watch. Would be great to have this resolved! Maybe also somehow have option to run cncnet launcher via simply pressing play on steam.
Reproduction steps.
Expected: The Steam UI should show that Red Alert 2 or Yuri's Revenge is running
Actual: The steam UI shows the
Play
button, which means it doesn't see that Red Alert 2 was launched.
