Rules:
Simple!
So, first you need to locate where you've installed your copy of Diablo. If you didn't manually tell Battle.Net to install games into the SD Card, this will be in your Proton Files directory - a.k.a.
~/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/<battlenets_steam_id>/pfx/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Battle.Net
Your first step will be locating the
<battlenets_steam_id>
number, as all the folders incompatdata
are incomprehensible ids. Just Launch and close Battle.net (via Steam - just open and kill the program), then open the previously describedcompatdata
folder in Desktop Mode and sort the file list by last modified - hopefully your Battle.Net's installation directory will be at the top. (if not, keep opening those folders until one of them has a Battle.Net folder inProgram Files (x86)
)After finding the correct
compatdata
directory, continue into it by navigating to where Diablo 4 is installed (either in your Battle.net folder or somewhere else inProgram Files (x86)
), and right-click its binary -Diablo 4 Launcher.exe
- to add it to Steam as a non-steam game. Note that you aren't done yet - if you use this link it will not have access to any of your previous user data from the<battlenets_steam_id>
compatdata
folder - we'll have to add that.Go into your Steam library (in Desktop mode with a keyboard is easiest) and right-click the new Diablo 4 entry. Under "Shortcut", there'll be a field called launch options. There you want to add the following line:
STEAM_COMPAT_DATA_PATH="/home/deck/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/<battlenets_steam_id>/" %command%
...making sure to replace the
<battlenets_steam_id>
part with the id you found earlier, during step 1. This will tell Steam to use the data from your Battle.Net install when launching Diablo (for things like automatically logging in and, well, accessing Battle.Net's install :D)Finally: these steps work for all third party launchers, so if you also have Ubisoft Connect or EA App games, you can add them in a similar fashion.
Note: You will need to click through the Battle.Net launcher every time you launch Diablo, that's just how it works. I tend to tap my screen to get through the prompts quickly, and just kill Battle.Net via Steam when looking to exit.
Haha, I love what you're considering simple(I'm not saying that it's too complicated, but it's funny to see a wall of text after "Simple!")
