Install Hearthstone on Archlinux

howto-hearthstone-archlinux.md

Dependencies

• playonlinux
• lib32-libldap, lib32-gnutls (multilib needed)
• ttf-ms-fonts
• Battle.Net client from this webpage https://us.battle.net/account/download/ (windows version)

Installation

• Open PlayOnLinux
• Click on Install and select Install a non-listed program
• Next the useless screens
• Select Install a program in a new virtual drive and choose a name for it
• Select Configure wine and then 32 bits windows installation
• When the Wine configuration tool pops out, set the Windows version to Windows 7 in the Application tab, and confirm with ok
• Next screen will allow you to select the previously downloaded Hearthstone-Setup.exe (or similar)
• Let the default installation settings, and close the client once installed
• Choose Battle.Net Launcher.exe, pick a shortcut name and finish the installation

Enjoy

You will be able to start Battle.Net Launcher (and thus the game) by using either:

• GUI: Open PlayOnLinux, select the shortcut and click Run
• CLI: playonlinux --run "$shortcut_name" where $shortcut_name is the name you used at the last step of install

It worked! Thank you, I don't know why I didn't try that before but whatever, with Win7 I was able to see everything in the Blizzard app and download Hearthstone.

If you no have sound install lib32-libpulse
Also if you have lost focus on window after switching beetween windows add new param in wine registry

[HKCU\software\Wine\X11 Driver]
UseTakeFocus="yes"

If that registry doesn't exist, create it.
