WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2007 - native PC version (Windows; Linux and Steam Deck through Proton)

YOU NEED YOUR OWN COPY OF THE GAME. This download contains none of the files from the game disc
and never downloads any: the game's data (models, textures, sound, video) is read from a disc
image (.iso) of your own disc, USA / Europe release. It does not condone piracy.

Windows
 1. Copy your .iso into this folder, next to svr2007.exe.
 2. Run svr2007.exe. The game finds the disc image by itself and starts.
 (If there's no .iso here, the game asks for one the first time and remembers it.)

Linux / Steam Deck, through Proton
 1. Extract this folder (on the Deck in Desktop Mode, for example to /home/deck/Games/SVR2007-NATIVE)
    and copy your .iso into it, next to svr2007.exe. The game finds it there by itself.
 2. Steam > Games > Add a Non-Steam Game to My Library > Browse > pick svr2007.exe
    (set the file type filter to All files).
 3. The shortcut's Properties > Compatibility > Force the use of a specific Steam Play
    compatibility tool > Proton Experimental.
 4. Start it (on the Deck, from Game Mode). View + Menu together opens the settings menu.
    Optional: bind the L4 back button to F1 in the game's Steam controller layout.

Settings: press F1 in game (or Back + Start on a controller) for the settings menu: resolution
from 480p up to 8K, graphics API, fullscreen or window, 60 or 30 fps, screen shape, background blur, FPS counter, sound,
language (English, Italian), unlock everything, keyboard controls, CPU priority. Saved in svr2007.toml.
Graphics: svr2007.exe draws with Direct3D 12 on Windows; on Steam Deck / Linux it starts
svr2007_vulkan.exe (Vulkan) by itself. Settings > Graphics API switches between them.
Saves: the userdata folder (created on first start). If something goes wrong, send game.log.
Updates: when a new version is out, the game says so at startup; install it from the settings
menu (Update), only if you want to. Your saves, settings and disc image are kept, and your saves
are backed up to the save_backups folder first. Turn the check off there too.
