Game "140" from GOG causing troubles

I have a game from GOG that is named "140" As soon as I open the detail page from that game I get the Error: Cannot get game info after some seconds. The first seconds I see the info. Also I can't install this game or launch it. Clicking Install instead of clicking on the title shows the install window but never get's ready. From over 550 games on Epic and GOG this is the only one that never worked. I guess it has to do with the short name that is just a number. the shop page is https://www.gog.com/de/game/140_game ...

XBox controller is half compatible with Heroic Launcher

I am trying GOG atm for the first time but the XBox controller is giving me some dramas. I installed Tomb Raider Anniversary which my XBox Elite 2 controller works out of the box. I also installed 2013 Tomb Raider which the controller does not work at all. I did try adding the game to Steam to use the mapping but it does not work either....

Heretic + Hexen (GOG) with Gamescope from Game Mode not loading

Hi there, I've been trying to get the Heretic + Hexen rerelease working correctly on my Steam Deck for the last day and I can't get it to load past a black screen when I have Gamescope installed and launching the game from Game Mode. If I manually uninstall the Gamescope Flatpak, the game launches correctly but it would be annoying to constantly uninstall and reinstall Gamescope. The game works every time I launch it from Desktop Mode, both with Gamescope installed or not. I've attached two logs: One with Gamescope installed and one when it is uninstalled....
Solution:
For HDR to work, you need to use the "beta" branch of Heroic. Note that this might break controller input (hence the beta)

How to Add Game Data Folder to Heroic Game Import?

How can I add a game data folder to an imported game? The exe expects a folder with other data, but I can't add it to the install directory, and I don't see the game exe or path in the prefix folder. Is there an option somewhere to add my game data folder and dlls or do I need to move the folder and data somewhere? On Steamdeck via Flatpak. Thanks.

Road Redemption from Epic Games Store boots to a grey screen, then black, and nothing else happens.

As the title says. Tested on the PS4 via Arch Linux, as well as on my 4th gen i5 laptop under Manjaro. With the recommended default of GE Proton, the game won't launch at all and give a generic Unity Engine error popup that says nothing, just a loading bar.

NVIDIA RTX 5070 Ti does not support DirectX 12 features

I had unrelated(?) issues with my second monitor, so I updated my NVIDIA drivers while running Linux OpenSUSE and changed to Debian 13 (NVIDIA driver 580) after problems persisted. Now, any game on Heroic is unable to launch with the error message: "Your graphics card NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti does not support DirectX12 features." For an older game, it says DirectX11 isn't supported. Games on Steam using DirectX12 run fine, so there is some issue with Heroic? Thanks for any help.
