Run GTAV and Livesplit at the same time

Ok, I want to use the "Run EXE in prefix" functions, however Heroic runs wineboot -i before running the exe, which makes it wait until the game is closed, I want to have both the game and the exe running at the same time. How can I run Proton manually in the same prefix heroic uses? I already found the command in the Heroic logs, however I couldn't manage to get it working, if I replaced the legendary launch command it tried to run the exe without proton for some reason.

what are you trying to do

considerable-lavenderOP•3y ago

I want to run both a game and livesplit in the same wineprefix, so I can use the autosplitter 😄

This is probably only possible with the wrapper option, but can't tell how

eager-peach•3y ago

you should really just switch to wine-ge, then create a .bat file that launches your game and the other exe you would like, and set that as the alternate exe. see #Proper method for launching an exe inside the prefix before launching the game? for a similar post

I'd switch to wine-ge, I know how to use that, but the game only works in ProtonGE, in wine-ge the rockstar games launcher keeps crashing... 😕

I run gta v in wine ge no problems Rockstar launcher included. What game are you trying to play

considerable-lavenderOP•3y ago

GTA V It's always SocialClubHelper.exe crashing... Give me a second, then I can post a debug log. Uhm... it's somehow working now? Maybe it's because I updated it earlier today.. No idea how that fixed it. Well, at least it works now, thanks ❤️

echo Starting Livesplit
cd %LiveSplitPath%
start LiveSplit.exe

echo Starting GTA V
cd "Z:\home\kaki\.games\GTAV\"
GTA5.exe

echo Starting Livesplit
cd %LiveSplitPath%
start LiveSplit.exe

echo Starting GTA V
cd "Z:\home\kaki\.games\GTAV\"
GTA5.exe

I made this little .bat file, however when I start it LiveSplit opens, but GTA V doesn't start at all and it doesn't display any error message.

When you close livesplit does gta open

eager-peach•3y ago

What exactly is livesplit?

considerable-lavenderOP•3y ago

Nope, it does not, I already checked the path, I didn't misspell anything there... A speedrun timer

continuing-cyan•3y ago

Why not just run GTA V normally via heroic and start a linux speedrun timer. Or install Livesplit in the same prefix and startit via console

1. I'm used to LiveSplit, used it all the time on Windows and having an autosplitter is great, otherwise all my runs will need to be retimed and I need to do splits myself. 2. Pure convenience. Most of the time when I play GTA V I'm speedrunning, so I might as well always start both

ok, this is the output... I'm pretty sure that I have entered all the paths correctly... Ok, I just ran LiveSplit manually in the prefix, it can't find the gta5.exe process for some reason, so the autosplitter doesn't work...

considerable-lavenderOP•3y ago

Just did some more testing and wrote my own little exe that looks through the list of running processes, no GTA V or R* games launcher there, even though my prefix is set to that folder in heroic

considerable-lavenderOP•3y ago

Actually I can just use legendary and make a .sh script that starts both GTAV with legendary and Livesplit okay, I managed to get everything working now, thanks everyone 😄

continuing-cyan•3y ago

You can also run Livesplit and heroic via script We provide a way to launch a game without starting the gui

considerable-lavenderOP•3y ago

Oh, right 😄 I forgot about that 😄
