How to get Resident Evil Revelations 1 to work in Proton
To get Resident Evil Revelations working in Proton or Wine, you need to install WMP manually since the game uses it to play its cutscenes. Here are the steps:

  • Start the game in Proton 5.0 without playing it, so that it creates the prefix folder in Steam.
  • Open the terminal and enter the following command:

PROTON_VERSION="Proton 5.0" protontricks 222480 -q wmp9

This command will install WMP9 for the game.

It is important to note that the Proton version used in the command may vary depending on your system. Additionally, if you encounter any issues with the game after installing WMP, you can try verifying the game files or reinstalling the game to ensure all necessary components are present.
