I wanted to play NFS:World, but it isn’t loading. I tried SoapBox app and russian World Evolved client, but it just crashes. Is there any guide for running NFS World? Somewhere I saw that Wine 9.9 is required, I couldn’t find wine 9.9, so tried Proton 9.9 using Bottles, but no any luck.

    Did you try replicating stuff on the WineHQ AppDB from people who have gotten it running?

    E.g.:

    https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=20659

    With a fresh Wine prefix, do:

    winetricks d3dx9 dotnet20 ie7 glsl-enable gdiplus

    Then install the game as normal. Nothing else should be required. Feel free to experiment, but if something breaks, be sure to try this before asking for help.
