Install Hearthstone on Archlinux
Raw
howto-hearthstone-archlinux.md

Dependencies

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

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.
