Yes I have managed to get it working on Fedora 42 with lutris and a bit of tinkering. Installed game via Lutris automatic installer. Used Lutris to install GTA conected. Ran from Lutris. Located the exe within GTA connect. Said need to patch, followed instructions and ran with wine from terminal not lutris this time. This created an issue saying cant find 'binkw32.dll' when connecting to a server. Looked in files and noticed the patch created a new one. I moved the new one out and renamed the original dll with the correct name so it can be used. Was able to boot but screen was frozen on log screen. I disabled the game setting 'Window mode fix' within GTA connect and it works!

So had to jump through some hoops as this is a niche program with a niche OS. I found locating the exe files confusing because of the wine prefixes but I'm new. But yes its possible if you are willing to troubleshoot.
