Hearthstone + HDT steps in wine

These instructions assume a clean wine prefix, and will use ~/.wine.hearthstone as the prefix in example commands. If you already have such a prefix please either clean it or use a different one.

Prerequisites

Any distro

• wine (duh) - I assume you either need the 32bit version or the wow version (which supports both). Tested working on: wine-3.13 (Staging)
• winetricks - used for making the setup eaiser. You can manually do the steps without it, but it's easier to use. Tested working on: 20180603 - sha256sum: a114ec82c634d87b048cef33f1a0bfe9d26f3795459fd85c5bb064dc0260299c

Arch linux

• wine-staging
• winetricks
• lib32-libldap and lib32-gnutls (without these the login button won't show up on Battle.net)

Nixos/nix

It's tested working with the following (on the nixos-unstable channel, and likely 18.09):

• wineWowPackages.staging
• winetricks

Installation

0. Grab HDT oauth from windows

If you aren't going to login to hsreplay in HDT you can skip this.

HDT works on linux, however you can't login to hsreplay. However you can grab the login info from a working windows install and then use that on linux.

First ensure that HDT is not running on windows. Next download the hdte.exe file from this repository to your Downloads folder on windows. Then open the command prompt and run the following:

Downloads\hdte.exe decrypt %AppData%\HearthstoneDeckTracker\hsreplay_oauth Downloads\hsreplay_oauth.decrypted

You will have to transfer that hsreplay_oauth.decrypted from Downloads to Linux (I'll assume it's in ~/Downloads on linux later on when installing HDT)

1. Setup the prefix

WINEPREFIX=~/.wine.hearthstone WINEARCH=win32 wine wineboot # Create 32 bit wine prefix
WINEPREFIX=~/.wine.hearthstone winetricks dotnet45 # Install .NET 4.5
WINEPREFIX=~/.wine.hearthstone winetricks win7 # Set Windows version to 7 (.NET install will have set it to 2k3)
WINEPREFIX=~/.wine.hearthstone winetricks corefonts # Install fonts for Battle.net, you may not be able to login without this
WINEPREFIX=~/.wine.hearthstone winetricks nocrashdialog # Without this popup warnings appear after running Battle.net

2. Install HDT

Download HDT from https://hsdecktracker.net/download/ then run

WINEPREFIX=~/.wine.hearthstone wine ~/Downloads/HDT-Installer.exe # or wherever you downloaded it to

If you want to be logged in to hsreplay then download the hdte.exe file from this repository to ~/Downloads alongside the hsreplay_oauth.decrypted file from above, close HDT if it is open, and run the following

WINEPREFIX=~/.wine.hearthstone wine ~/Downloads/hdte.exe encrypt ~/Downloads/hsreplay_oauth.decrypted ~/.wine.hearthstone/drive_c/users/$USER/Application Data/HearthstoneDeckTracker/hsreplay_oauth # change ~/.wine.hearthstone to your wine prefix if you've changed it 

3. Install Hearthstone

Download hearthstone https://eu.battle.net/account/download

Run the following to install it:

WINEPREFIX=~/.wine.hearthstone wine ~/Downloads/Hearthstone-Setup.exe 

Before running Hearthstone select Hearthstone in Battle.net, go to Options->Game Settings, enable Additional command line arguments, and add the argument -force-d3d9 (without this you may get a black screen on launch).

Troubleshooting

HDT runs but the overlay doesn't appear in game

Try running the game in windowed mode. In at least KDE the overlay doesn't show above the game in fullscreen. If that doesn't work then check the overlay options in the main HDT window, in particular the "Hide in menu"" and "Hide (completely)". Try toggling the "Hide (completely)" option.

The overlay is a bit weird window wise, so it may be possible your window manager doesn't handle it the best. Please try a different window manager/desktop environment before reporting an issue if this is your problem. The following is tested as working:

• kwin/KDE - works in windowed mode, overlay isn't shown in fullscreen
• awesomewm4 - works

If you test this in something else please add to the above list
