Ah ok, yeah the anticheat should be linux compatible, but they simply don't activate it for whatever stupid reason. But maybe there is light at the end of the tunnel; since Microsoft is banishing third party drivers from Kernel in the near future, because of the Crowdstrike disaster. That could mean that those anticheats can be run with proton. Only time will tell. gL&hf!
