Alan Wake 2 crashing on startup

AW2 Log: https://0x0.st/K2F6.log I am on a CachyOS system and, as should be in the log file, running on Ryzen 7 7800X3D, 32GB RAM and an RTX 4070 Ti. When I try to start Alan Wake 2 through Heroic, it stops telling me that there was a GPU fault causing the crash, see screenshot of the message. I do not have any over-/underclocking software installed and my packages are on the newest versions I can get. Starting the game right after a reboot does not help either, so there should not be any issues with any other GPU intensive applications. I am not using the flatpack version of Heroic and have double checked that i have all the dependencies installed....

Can I set all games to use the same wine prefix by default?

Is there a way to make it so that every new game I add automatically points to the same prefix rather than having to change it each time? The reason is that a friend of mine has all their saves and files set up in one prefix, and they don't want to constantly copy them over to the new prefix each time (or have to set it to the right prefix every time he adds a game)...
Solution:
Using a different prefix for each game is by design. Games frequently require fixes, and those fixes may in turn break other games If you really want to use one prefix, check the "Use Default Wine Settings" option in the install dialog...

Control (game name) not staring.

Black screen blinks for a momment, then returns to Heroic. Hard to find any solution due to name of the game (literally "Control"). I hope I have attached proper log file, as there are my first days with linux and file system is still a misttery for me:) #control...

Owned games missing from GOG Library after disk failure.

I'm on Windows 11, using Heroic as a GOG Galaxy replacement for syncing with Steam Deck. Recently my secondary storage drive died and all the games on it are missing from my list of Owned GOG games in Heroic, but all are displayed in Galaxy. I have used the library sync button, restarted my PC, installed some of the missing games via Galaxy, signed my account out and back in again, and used the GOG user account refresh link all to no results. What tends to happen after launching Heroic is that all games will display briefly, the missing ones will say "Game Unavailable" and then vanish, making it impossible to reinstall on my good drive or sync cloud saves. Attached are my Heroic and GOG log files....

Rocket League won't launch on LInux system

Today I tried to play Rocket League, since the Steam version does not have multiplayer I downloaded Heroic Game Launcher and ogged in to Epic Games through it. I downloaded Rocket League on the launcher and then proceeded to choose the newest proton-ge version. When I start the game it shows as "launching" to then after like 10 seconds stop it and turn off. When I try to start it I see the console (cmd) open up for a brief second and then close itself immediately. I am out of ideas on how to fix this issue, maybe someone from this community also had this issue and knows how to get it running ? ...

Controller support for RE3(OG,GOG) not working

For some reason I controller support for heroic itself is working just fine, but when I try to play the game the analog sticks will work but none of the buttons. I've already tried reinstalling Heroic as per the FAQ and that didn't work.

Heroic completely ignores config file

Neither : %userprofile%/.config/heroic, nor %userprofile%/.config/heroic/config.json, nor %appdata%/heroic/config.json, nor %appdata%/heroic/store/config.json applies saved config. Also Heroic logs does not show how its own config is loaded, but only how subcomponents are loaded (GOG/Amazon/etc..). The Logs obviously does not show any problem with sub components, or any problem at all. Heroic is healthy. ...
