I'm using Fedora 42. I'm using Bottles to run EQ. The only problem I've had was a vertical and horizontal mouselook disparity (vertical was superfast, horizontal was agonizingly slow). I was able to fix this issue by limiting my FPS to 60.
Do you have any more information on this? I've been trying to use Bottles but it just blips a black square then disappears. I think it's still running based on the CPU/GPU usage but I don't see anything... (Bottles on Bazzite)

are you using:
eqgame.exe patchme 2>/dev/null
to launch the game?

In Bottles, I clicked the Add Shortcut button and added it to "Programs". In my Launch Options, the executable is eqgame.exe and the command arguments are "patchme". The working directory is where I copied the files (/home/bazzite/.../bottle/p99/drive_c/p99). DXVK and VKD3D are both on, everything else is toggled off.

your command line arguments should be
patchme 2>/dev/null

I created a new bottle for gaming and made no modifications. I added the shortcut for eqgame.exe and changed the 'Command Arguments' to patchme 2>/dev/null
