When I activate the 1-7-22 wine, the game starts but before entering in the accaunt it stops working. With wine 1-9-11 the game gives a message with "WoT crash". Also in my octopy is written that my wine is 1-9-11-1 but when I enter it playonlinux says "Can't find version 1-9-11-1". Please help!

Can you give me some information about your system?
Can you run any other games in PlayOnLinux?

Well...games like Hearthstone are working fine, but Heroes of the Storm, which is again in battle.net, gives an error when I start to play. My linux is Manjaro or known as arch linux.

There may be more to it.  I was playing okay yesterday but today it is broken.  Trying to get some relevant debug information.  Initially it was crashing as it attempts to login.  Now I can only get the launcher to run, when I hit play it croaks.

atibb - So it "was" working yesterday?  How long did you play?

Can you run World of Tanks with Debug instead of "Run"?  This way you can copy the entire log and post the errors here.

When I tested World of Tanks I was using Mint 17.3 and a GeForce card as well.  So I know it runs.  Since Hearthstone runs, this means your system is setup correctly, but isn't that a card game?  Not a lot of 3D rendering required... right?

Sometimes an updated client can break things as well.

I think you try to work with a 64-bit bottle. For WoT just use 32-bit bottle, 64-bit makes little sense now, if any at all.

Look here for instructions on how to instal the game. Use wine 1.9.11 or above. The standard POL scrypt may not work with the latest WoT patch.

Good point.  There is a PlayOnLinux installer (script) available for World of Tanks, but I don't know if it installs a 64-bit virtual drive with a 64-bit version of Wine?

Here is the script:  World of Tanks

It installs 32-bit drive. Problem is now you need only vcrun2012. Do not install everything else.
