CyberPunk 2077 on Steam Deck with full logs (GOG version - Ultimate Edition)

Hi, I'm creating a new post for Cyberpunk 2077 on Steam Deck with full logs. It is related to a lot of issues faced by people previously. The game launches fine in desktop mode, but in game mode I encounter either the infinite spinning wheel, or I hear audio but see no video, or the game launches but does not recognize the steam controller as input ( for Wine-GE-Proton8-26). I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game, heroic launcher and made sure that the flatpak has permissions to write to my SD card. I have tried Proton Experimental, GE-Proton9-26 (was working with this until 2 days ago) and GE-Proton10-8....

Contagion - No SteamClient021

I'm trying to get Contagion to run, and it always fails with this error dialog. I have successfully played it in the past, and I am not sure what has changed. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling it, and tried different Proton versions.

so i have steam and i can run my game perfectly with proton but when using proton on heroic. it just not launch. it said lauching and the button is going back to play. oh i also noticed that i can run in vanilla wine. but not proton (updated i can run with proton but i have to disaable umu).
Solution:
You're using the native Nix version. This version is unofficial and has some issues (specifically on dual-GPU systems, like laptops). Use the Flatpak package instead (link)

The Evil Within shows that it launches but it does not pop up on my screen and stops after 2 seconds

i have switched to proton-GE and i did download all the required dependencies from https://github.com/lutris/docs/blob/2b116519c5b67254733234f36ab33a60f14f1358/WineDependencies.md yet it did not help. any thought on why?
Solution:
The issue here is that you installed the game into a folder the Flatpak version of Heroic can't access. By default it can only see ~/Games/Heroic, /mnt/, /run/media/, and/media. To resolve this, you'd have to modify the Flatpak's permissions or simply install into one of those folders instead (potentially changing mount points of other drives) The heroic-games-launcher package in the AUR is not official. Please use heroic-games-launcher-bin instead. Also, never ever run pacman -Sy / yay -Sy without also updating your system (u flag)...

Save game cloud sync between EGS via Heroic and stand-alone

Hi, I'm currently playing Atom Eve in EGS via Heroic and have done a savegame upload. Today I wanted to continue via standalone EGS on my Windows PC and my save games weren't there. Am I expecting something wrong or do I have to tweak something to get it synced?...

Game Stuck Loading when launching from SteamOS

Trying to run Avowed launches just fine from desktop mode, but does not launch from SteamOS just gets stuck on the spinning steam logo. Tried Proton versions 6.3, 7, 8, hotfix, Wine-GE-Proton8-26, and Wine-GE-latest. Also attempted disabling UMU with different version, no change. Desktop config that runs is Proton hotfix, with UMU disabled. Feels similar to this issue. https://0x0.st/8GZ-.log...
Solution:
That seemed to do it. Had to recreate the shortcut in SteamOS but seems to be working. Thank you and good night...

ZZZ launches with no image

The game itself launches and i can hear main menu sounds and even interact with it, but no visual output. The problem seems to happen only with proton GE, wine works just fine.

i hate flatpak

FileSystem Error

Hello, after 5 different OS'es etc i have come to the conclusion that this must be a Heroic/Wine Error. This error basically happens universally on any - and i mean ANY - game i throw at heroic. Any Idea?

Heroic 2.17.2: Can't update GoG version of X4

Hi, I am not able to update my copy of X4 from GoG via Heroic on my steam deck. It is stuck on a very low % and downloads very fast on the first 2-3 seconds and pauses then. You can see the "being stuck forever" screenshot attached. ...
Solution:
Nevermind... Update worked in desktop mode. (But is this intended to only work in desktop?)...
