Hi everyone!

After buying only games from Steam, I’ve decided to also try to support GOG.

I’ve bought only one game so far (Earthworm Jim) and got 4 for free.

When trying to install Earthworm Jim, Heroic only allows me to install the native Linux version, when GOG says they also have the Windows version.

People on the web are saying that it’s better to use proton and not Linux versions.

Despite some research, I can’t find a way to switch versions.

Can anyone help me?

Also since I have some proton versions downloaded for Steam Os, do I need to download them again in Heroic?

Edit: Problem solved by doing the same operation in desktop mode

    People on the web are saying that it’s better to use proton and not Linux versions.

    I’ve been one of those people. But! That wholly depends on the game. It is often true when the Windows version received updates while the Linux version was neglected. But if the Linux version is being maintained the same as the Windows version they should be equal, with the Linux version being preferred.

    So, just install the Linux version and only switch when you have problems.
