we are using SolidWorks 2019 SP5.1 Full Premium can you add it to the auto-install script?

Does SolidWorks work with DirectX 9 or OpenGL? I downloaded a pirated version from a torrent, added the keys to the registry, blocked all the ports in Linux that it uses to check the license, and left only one version of SW without add-ons and extensions because I don't use SW professionally at home, I just model sometimes for 3D printing. I solved the VBA problem as described in the documentation. Now I need to know what SW uses for hardware acceleration. Using Proton, I can choose either DXVK or OpenGL to Vulkan libraries. By the way, SW doesn't work with DXVK on Windows, but Siemens NX works.

Off-topic: Can you help me install Siemens NX on Wine or the native 2012 version, which simply doesn't work on modern Debian? Thanks.

And installing even a single SolidWorks without additional modules takes painfully long, several hours.

I still haven't been able to install it. SW installs and freezes even if left running all day. In the end, I took the files from a Windows computer and placed them into the PortProton prefix where I was running it. The crack files and the license server are there too. I managed to start the license server through the graphical interface, but starting SW shuts down the license server, and it doesn't see the license. I couldn't run them simultaneously. Ideally, a script should start the license server, then start SW, and then a ready-made bottle with SW installed would be ready. Moreover, PortProton allows trying both dxvk and glvk.

In any case, I need competent help.
