Getting back into Linux as my daily driver and realized gaming has come a long way since the last time I used it regularly. Does anyone have experience/tips on getting WaW to install and run?

I had a friend suggest going the Proton route: https://www.protondb.com/app/10090

Thanks in advance folks!

Thanks Barcode!! I'm running Mint and got it to install via Proton but it won't allow me to create an online profile name.

What method did you use with Proton? I used the Steam install that I already had on my machine hoping that'd be good enough.

I had to enable Steam Play for supported and all other titles under Settings > Compatibility (I use Proton Experimental for everything), then I just downloaded the game from steam and clicked play. I am not sure if you have a CD with key how much different it will be compared to buying it from Steam. If you still have issues you may check out the reports on ProtonDB at https://www.protondb.com/app/10090 to see if anyone else has encountered the same issue.
