@lucifertdark Of course, you are talking about a different game :)

This is about 7 Wonders of the Ancient World (275810) and not 7 Wonders: Ancient Alien Makeover (223000).

Apologies, I misread the game title, deleted by previous reply so as to not confuse things further.

Missing WAV audio support.

The error is caused by missing DirectMusic that can be installed with the following command:

protontricks 275810 --force -q directmusic
protontricks 275810 winecfg (Display > Enable Virtual Desktop > 800x600)

The game works fine and has even better performances with PROTON_USE_D9VK=1 %command%. There is however an issue where the mouse area is cut off at the top of the window, the mouse cannot go there for some reason. It's also not possible to move the desktop window otherwise the mouse cursor will be offset.

I can confirm, installing directmusic and the game launches. I didn't need to enable virtual desktop, however in fullscreen the window does not expand over the whole screen, it's more like maximized window.

The game works fine and has even better performances with PROTON_USE_D9VK=1 %command%.

This can only be placebo, as the game uses DirectX 6 and not 9.

With Wine the window is expanded over the whole screen.

Update:

It seems adding PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 to launch options made game work??? Please someone confirm that! installing DirectMusic through protontricks still required!

Initial comment:

So some time passed, I've got the game and following protontricks steps suggested earlier do not help. Proton version: Experimental

After installing directmusic:

After enabling virtual desktop, game doesn't say anything nor winecfg open now.
