26.0 The Elder Scrolls Online (Standalone) <p>The standalone (non-Steam) client for The Elder Scrolls Online, installed via the ZeniMax Online / Bethesda.net launcher. The launcher downloads and patches the game itself; this recipe just gets the launcher installed and working.</p> 20260820 - Rebuilt as a valid c4p CrossTie for CrossOver 26.x. Based on the shipped com.codeweavers.c4.11974 profile (cxversion 16.0, win7_64) but retargeted at win10_64 and with the Microsoft Edge WebView2 runtime added, which the current launcher UI requires. 20260820 - Do NOT add a Visual C++ 2015/2022 predependency (com.codeweavers.c4.14327). The ESO installer's prereq step logs "checkVCRedistVersion: installed: [14.42.34433.0] required: [14.38.33135.0] result: [false]" and then skips DOWNLOADING vc_redist.2022.x64.exe - but its installVCRedist workflow task still tries to execute that file unconditionally. The result is "Platform_ExecuteNormal failed to execute (...vc_redist.2022.x64.exe) [LE: 2]", Installer_Error_VCRedist, and a full rollback. Letting the installer supply its own VC++ runtime is what makes the install succeed. DirectX is bundled in the installer, so c4.14037 stays out too.

The launcher must then be run once to download the game itself, which is roughly 110 GB - make sure the bottle's disk has room.</p> <p>Install into a NEW bottle. If the bottle already has the Visual C++ 2015-2022 runtime, the ESO installer skips downloading its own copy but still tries to run it, and the install rolls back.</p> <p>MSync and DXMT cannot be set from a CrossTie. After installing, open the bottle's settings and enable MSync and the Metal-based D3D renderer there.</p> com.codeweavers.c4.6959 com.codeweavers.c4.7994 com.codeweavers.c4.19373 Install_ESO.exe Install_ESO.exe WINE_WAIT_CHILD_PIPE_IGNORE Bethesda.net_Launcher.exe %StartMenu%\%Programs%\ESO (skip launcher) c:\Program Files (x86)\Zenimax Online\The Elder Scrolls Online\game\client\eso64.exe c:\Program Files (x86)\Zenimax Online\The Elder Scrolls Online\game\client
