How to install GeneralsOnlineZH on linux with steam or proton

Posted by artodeto on Sunday, January 18. 2026

Hey there,

finally I've figured out how to play Generals Online under linux using proton or steam.

This is just a copy of my example section for proton.

I have to assume a lot upfront since steam does the heavy lifting of figuring out what software is mandatory.

# Assumed you have protontricks installed
# Assumed you have steam installed
# Assumed you have command and conquer zero hour installed with english language
# Assumed you have started command and conquer at least once before
#   installing generals online
# Assumed you want to install generals online
# Assumed you've downloaded the GeneralsOnline.exe from
#   ref: https://www.playgenerals.online/
protontricks-launch --appid 2732960 "/path/to/the/GeneralsOnline_setup_*.exe"
# Choose "/path/to/steam/steamapps/common/Command & Conquer Generals - Zero Hour/Generals.exe"
# Assumed you want to start your game with mangohud
mangohud protontricks-launch --appid 2732960 "/path/to/steam/steamapps/common/Command & Conquer Generals - Zero Hour/GeneralsOnlineZH.exe"
# Click on Multiplayer->Online and login via steam

That's it. Enjoy it and see you on the battlefield commander!
