no matter which proton version i try to run the history edition in, the best it was able to do was launch into a blackscreen and throw a cant find uplay error, protondb was no help at all, none of the tips there helped, neither changing the engine ini, nor using lutris
im trying to get it to run on endeavouros and nvidia
the only anno 1404 version i was able to run was a torrented version from a collection of history editions
I had the same “unable to detect uplay” error except for a different Anno game. Here’s how I solved it, if you want to try:
Install ProtonUp-Qt, then add SteamTinkerLaunch using it.
In Steam, go to Properties… for the game that needs Ubisoft Connect. Then Compatibility tab, check “Force the use of a specific Steam Play compatibility tool”, and select “Steam Tinker Launch” from the dropdown.
Start the game, and quickly press the “MAIN MENU” button at the bottom of the window.
Click “One time run”, choose the UbisoftConnectInstaller.exe that you downloaded and click “RUN COMMAND”
And you’re 100% sure you installed it in the correct wine prefix? Because that’s the tricky part, and having it installed in a different wine prefix won’t work.

installing ubisoft connect wasnt helping earlier today

the fact it did change (just for the worse) id say would indicate the correct wine prefix does it not?
p.s: i tried steamtinker or whats it called as well (yesterday that is)
