Configuring Heroic

Launch Heroic, if it's your first time opening it, you'll receive a changelog and a tracking consent pop-up. On the left, click on Wine Manager, then from the top, click on GE-Proton and download GE-Proton-Latest.

From the left, click on Library, then click on the button labelled "ADD GAME". You'll receive a new window asking for the title, app image, platform, etc.

Where it says "Title", replace it with Phantasy Star Online 2 New Genesis, ensure the platform is on "Windows". Heroic should then generate box art and a banner, then scroll down to "Select Executable" and click on the folder icon next to it. Search for the PSO2 Tweaker inside of the pso2_files folder inside of your home folder, select it and press the choose button.

Expand the option Show Wine Settings, Where it says Wine Version, in the dropdown select Proton - GE-Proton-Latest.

Now click on the green Finish button.

Click on the settings icon . Scroll down to the bottom and click on the button labelled WINECFG. On the bottom, where it says Windows version, select Windows 10, then click OK.

Now click on the button that says WINETRICKS. In the search bar, type in dotnet48 and click on the install button next to it. Depending on your cpu and internet speed, it will take some time to complete.

Once this is finished, close the window and then scroll back to the top and click on the menu option called OTHER. Uncheck BattlEye AntiCheat Runtime and EasyAntiCheat Runtime.

Click on ADVANCED, then scroll down to the section labelled Environmental Variables. On the box where it says NAME, enter WINEDLLOVERRIDES, and in Value, enter d3d11.dll=n,b, then press the green + button.

Now, we'll be adding in another variable. This time, for NAME, enter WINE_NO_OPEN_FILE_SEARCH. Then for Value, enter "pso2_bin/data", then press the green + button. You may now close this window.
