It worked for me. Linux mint 20. Thank you so much! <3

Thanks for this write up. Worked like a dream in Fedora 30 w/Openbox.

Perfect instructions (as updated)
Linux Mint 19.1

Hi,
This is a great help, but your instructions for protontricks are a little out of date. Here's the updated instructions that worked for me:
The newer version is here: https://github.com/Matoking.... To install this, run:
sudo apt install python3-pip python3-setuptools python3-venv
python3 -m pip install --user pipx
~/.local/bin/pipx ensurepath
pipx install protontricks

Then you can install the extra dependencies with:
protontricks 105450 mfc42 winxp l3codecx corefonts

Awesome, thanks for the info! Let me update the guide.

do you install the 32 bit or 64 bit version of the game?

It's the 32-bit version.
