Install Lutris:

Create a new TK17 configuration in Lutris

Install a Wine runner that has esync and vulkan by entering Install Runners and Manage Versions for Wine

Create a new Wine Prefix

Select RUN from the Lutris menu, and select the TK17 installer.

Cancel the Wine-Gecko installer.

Create a symlink in a terminal
ln -s <your already installed TK17 folder> ~<where you set your Wine Prefix>

In Lutris, set the working directory for TK17 as its binaries, and the executable as TK17_Launcher.exe

Enable DXVK

In Winetricks, select and install the packages d3dcompiler_43 and d3xd11_43

In Winetricks, set d3d8 as (native, builtin)

With that, you should have a working TK17 install with H5. Launch it normally through Lutris.
