I downloaded the game from soft32 (this file used to work on the old days). I installed both WINE and Lutris, but the game runs like sh**t. I get .NET and Vulkan errors from Lutris&WINE. Can you give me a newbie friendly guide for the right way? I'm tired of scrapping the web and it doesn't help that I have limited data.
My system:
Device: HP 15 Notebook PC i5-4210U
OS: Ubuntu MATE (basically ubuntu 22.04)
GPU: Intel® HD Graphics 4400 (integrated) & Nvidia GeForce 820M (I'm not even sure which of them I'm using).

I'd ask the friendly folk over at !gaming@beehaw.org. I don't feel like piracy communities are the right place to ask Linux gaming questions.

    well, this is a Linux piracy question. I had the idea of asking over at r/piratedgames, but their mod has black belt on rule-fu. Do gaming@beehaw allow this kind of discussion/request, I mean piracy request

    Cs 1.6 has native version for linux. Why are you trying to play it with WINE?

    I know you are asking for cs 1.6, but do you know counter strike 2 is free on steam and have compatibility with Linux?

    LooL didn't know this. But anyway my PC is considered Potato, and I'm posting to get a safe example guide for Linux Piracy.

    This is the MINIMUM: OS: Ubuntu 20.04 Processor: 4 hardware CPU threads - Intel® Core™ i5 750 or higher Memory: 8 GB RAM Graphics: AMD GCN+ or NVIDIA Kepler+ with up-to-date Vulkan drivers. Support for VK_EXT_graphics_pipeline_library highly recommended. Storage: 85 GB available space Sound Card: Highly recommended

    You should try with your CPU and GPU

    It's still a little buggy and lacks many of the CSGO features, I just wish they didn't disable CSGO that early, that worked great!

    They didn't disable it, you can roll back to csgo in the steam options

    Seems legit, but don't provide direct links (as tempting as it is).

    It isn't a direct link, it's a link to a page where you can download a torrent file or get a magnet link. I thought this was allowed in this community? Maybe things have changed, in which case I'd gladly delete my comment.

    A magnet is hyperlink, and if you link it, it's a direct link.

    I'm not here to argue semantics, I'm just going off what the instance admin posted, specially section 3;

    Magnet Links and links to Torrent files are OK, unless we start getting into trouble for it.

    If dbzer0 has started getting into trouble for it, I'll gladly delete my comment.

    Thank you! I watched a video recommending them but was afraid if they are actually a trusted resource, That and if their guide would break my system if they are not. They are not in the megathread, but mentioned on r/piratedgames as JohnCena141 being safe.

    You don't need to install wine. In Lutris you should set the wine version to the latest proton-ge (that's a wine fork for gaming). And also did you install the game via Lutris or wine? You should install it via lutris. I just did it once with a pirated game (NFS Most Wanted) and it worked just fine.
