Had this one on the shelve for a while and requested authentication a while ago, but I'll just put it public by means of this forum.

Allows for multiple versions of the Battle.net app in several wine prefixies, so you can install the hosted games seperately if you wish to do so.

I've installed and reinstalled succesfully with this script myself. I have installed setups for Starcraft II, Heartstone, and most recently the Heroes of the Storm when I got invited to the beta.

Only just checked and the battle.net app is now officially available in retail instead of beta, but the link still works and will automatically update once installed. If you want to download the latest version yourself, just get 'http://dist.blizzard.com/downloads/bna-installers/322d5bb9ae0318de3d4cde7641c96425/retail.1/Battle.net-Setup-enUS.exe' and use the pre-downloaded option in the installer.

 

I'll see if I can commit an change for it, but I haven't had much luck communicating with the PoL team to get my installer approved officially, even in test mode :(

I've updated the script to install the retail version.

Don't forget to close the installer immediately, and not sign in :)

It's a really good idea but I think it's better to make a Steam-script like, a function you can use in game script to install Battle.net first.

- You must concidere the intelHD Graphic error (check on WineHQ for informations)

- The wine version is not good for some of the game in the Battle.net menu (so it's for that I think it's better to make a function-script like Steam)

If you like, I can help you for some part (or test for the intelHD graphic error) but not before july.

I've added the "-opengl" option as suggested for the IntelHD graphics. OpenGL is the preferred rendering engine for linux anyway, as DirectX gets translated to OpenGL anyway.

I've updated the wine version to 1.7.39 - which got platinum rating on winehq.

I don't understand the steam installer suggestion. At from what I understand it makes a prefix for each game it supports. That's exactly what this installer allows for. The battle.net app does not have an option to immediately start the installation of a game afterwards. That's something the user can do after installation...
