This release improves handling of login errors due to Epic requiring account actions and fixes installing some games (cough KSP) that have specified invalid installation directories.

you have to install ubisoft connect in the prefix since it's a ubisoft game, check this message https://discord.com/channels/812703221789097985/818939492244258826/1061381008714379356

do i have to run the installer through wine and use the WinePrefix Folder of the game as the install location?
correct-apricot•3y ago
go to the game's settings in heroic, there's an option Run EXE on Prefix that does all the prefix wine handling for youo

i followed the steps and sucessfully installed Ubisoft for AC:S, but Ubisoft cant connect the first time to the internet and wont let me play, even if i choose to play offline
optimistic-gold•3y ago
are you sure it's internet connection issue?
you might need to run legendary manually and activate game on your Ubisoft account
correct-apricot•3y ago
I didn't need the
activate
command for any of the ubisoft games I've triedcorrect-apricot•3y ago
can you try using heroic's AppImage https://heroicgameslauncher.com/downloads ? maybe it's some issue with flatpak

once you do it, it ties your Epic account to your Ubisoft account. you shouldn't need to do it more than once
compatible-crimsonOP•3y ago
didnt work sadly
i might be just stupid but i really cant find that directory and bash says "no such directory"
optimistic-gold•3y ago
it's possible I made a mistake
compatible-crimsonOP•3y ago
this is all i get (Connection lost) even tho im connected, i really have no idea whats going on

mute-gold•3y ago
You need to call it atleast once. I think afterwards it is automatically.
correct-apricot•3y ago
@Nitsu maybe you can try installing UbisoftConnect with the Add Game option in heroic and then use that launcher to install the game (instead of installing the game with heroic and adding UBisoftConnect in the prefix), I guess it's worth to try
what's weird is that I don't remember EVER doing this, not even once, maybe it can be that epic games launcher did something similar before I started using heroic? I don't know
I tested the game today on my deck and it worked fine with arial font, UbisoftConnect and Wine-GE-Proton7-35, at least on desktop (I haven't tried gaming mode yet)
compatible-crimsonOP•3y ago
Didnt work for me either
i will try to install Ubisoft Connect through Lutris and then i will reinstall AC:S again
and sorry for answering so late all the time, work's an ass
So uhh, funny enough, even ubisoft cnnect through lutris cannot connect to the internet. at this point im pretty sure that this is another problem
i configured a vpn and suddenly it works. Ubisoft Connect installs dependencies and iyou know if it works in gaming mode or nah
something about my connection is scuffed i guess?
compatible-crimsonOP•3y ago
last question: which of these should i use?

compatible-crimsonOP•3y ago
Okay now I'm stuck at that white loading area
Nevermind
correct-apricot•3y ago
none of those are really needed, steam runtime is not recommended in general unless you know you need it
compatible-crimsonOP•3y ago
Okay, thanks for the help
mute-gold•3y ago
Is esync and fsync even availble for windows? Else we need to disable it.
optimistic-gold•3y ago
it's not available on windows
mute-gold•3y ago
Ok maybe worth a fix
correct-apricot•3y ago
this thread is on the steam deck though, I don't think we are showing it on windows
mute-gold•3y ago
If you look close the gamesettings does not show a wine tab so i have think he is on windows
correct-apricot•3y ago
oh, we removed the wine/wine extensions tabs in the 2.5.2 release, it's all in the same page at the top of Game Settings
mute-gold•3y ago
Ah ok
But still would be good to block it anyway in the frontend
