Install

Linux/Proton

1. Install and launch (game will run, but crash next load with complaints about dxdiag).

2. Run the following

mv ./bin ./bin.bak \
  && ln -s DefEd/bin bin \
  && cd bin \
  && mv ./SupportTool.exe ./SupportTool.bak \
  && ln -s EoCApp.exe SupportTool.exe

3. Run the game, all good.

NOTE:

Occasionally, I've had trouble running headphones audio through my blue yeti mic.
The mic light will flash yellow, indicating that the sound profile is incorrect.

To resolve, alt-tab, play a youtube video (which should play audio fine),
jump back into the game (audio should work)
then pause the video and continue playing.

Configuration

Gamepad

Xbox-one controller works fine either:

• wired with xpad driver
• bluetooth with xpadneo
• bluetooth with xow

Triple Monitor

Windows

After enabling ati-eyefinity or nvidia-surround on windows, natively supports triple-wide gaming.

Linux

Disable nvidiaXineramaInfo, restart X

Disable nvidiaXineramaInfo in xorg.conf,
and restart your Display Manager (to restart Xorg with new options).

# /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Section "Screen"
  Option "nvidiaXineramaInfo" "Off"
EndSection

sudo systemctl restart lxdm.service

Set all monitors to 1920x1080

Change resolution so consistent across all monitors

# something like
xrandr \
    --output DP-2 --left-of HDMI-1 --mode 1920x1080 \
    --output HDMI-1 --mode 1920x1080 \
    --output USB-C-0 --right-of HDMI-1 --mode 1920x1080

Launch the game.
Your display resolution in game will list 1920x1080, but that resolution will be applied to all additional monitors.

You can also edit your graphics settings, but they do not appear to be used

NOTE:

This setup worked under openbox but not within i3.
Presumably, I could create an i3 rule to ignore the game and allow it to occupy the full screen.
