and im going through a problem

I manged to get it running through steam's proton, but it gives me the error, "WebView2 missing"

That's Microsoft stuff. You will have to create the necessary environment through Wine/Bottles. There are guides for this on the Internet.
Or you use the snap version:

Which comes with caveats, but can be used on Mint, instructions at the end of the warning:

here is a recent discussion of others trying to and somewhat resolving this issue https://www.reddit.com/r/Fusion360/comments/162to7t/whats_the_current_state_of_fusion_360_on_linux/

the least crappy solution seems to involve snap

you can also run it in a vm but you may in fact deal with a lack of graphical acceleration that might be problematic with this app

If you are planning on using it for work, to learn to ultimately use it for work or another important reason it may be worth running it in the native expected environment

okay so im going to use the snap version

and right now its installing

i manged to install it but the login thingy doenst work

and i cant even open it again

[pine tinsel]

i manged to get fusion opened up again

and it gives me this

[vast quartz]

Do you intend to use this for work?

[pine tinsel]

no

webview doesn't work on proton

[pine tinsel]

im using the snap version rn

[quiet sapphire]

also you should try installing fusion on bottles

since bottles already has the fusion installer https://usebottles.com/app/#fusion

[quiet sapphire]

basically it will install necessary stuff for fusion automatically

[pine tinsel]

ohh

let me try that

i do have bottles

[pine tinsel]

so i have installed fusion360 in bottles

and its not working

bottles just give me a "Launching Autodesk Fusion" notfication and nothing else happens

[quiet sapphire]

sorry for responding too late but, what runner are you using on bottles?

[pine tinsel]

soda

[quiet sapphire]

does it work if you use sys-wine instead of soda?

[pine tinsel]

let me check

same thing even with sys-wine

[quiet sapphire]

can you try launching the autodesk fusion's .exe manually?

also make sure to enable the "execute in terminal" checkmark in bottles so we can get the logs

[pine tinsel]

how would i do it manuallly

like i get the fusionclient installer.exe and run it thru bottels?

[quiet sapphire]

yes, but make sure you have those dependecies installed

Hi! I have a similar issue here (sorry for dig the forum). Basically I have this showing up almost every time I try opening Fusion, and when I try logging in on the Autodesk website and click on the Go to product button, nothing happens. Did anyone have a similar issue? How can I fix it? Cause I've tried looking for a solution on the GitHub page, but I haven't found one yet and it's getting exhausting

I have this window showing up when I click the button, and I don't know how to fix that
