Game doesn't start
I just installed the Heroic Launcher and the first game I tried to install was Trackmania. Unfortunately, when I press play, nothing happens.
This is the first part of the log (second part will follow in reply to this post):

--wine /usr/bin/wine
Use Wine-GE-Proton7-43extended-salmon•3y ago
Also you need to connect your ubisoft account with epic account. See read me first post and my comment about ubisoft games

Just play it on steam?
rare-sapphireOP•3y ago
A tiny progress has been made. I installed Wine-GE-Proton7-43, now it opens up a completely empty upc.exe window. Basically, the borders of the window are visible, but apart from that it is completely transparent.
exotic-emerald•3y ago
install d3dcompiler_43 and d3dcompiler_47 using winetricks
rare-sapphireOP•3y ago
can't find it using winetricks...
harsh-harlequin•3y ago
are you sure you're looking in the right section?
rare-sapphireOP•3y ago
not really...
harsh-harlequin•3y ago
"Install a Windows DLL or component"
rare-sapphireOP•3y ago
installed it, still isn't working...
harsh-harlequin•3y ago
it's still attempting to launch with your default wine, not Wine-GE
exotic-emerald•3y ago
This doesn't matter as much as the d3dcompiler thing
OP, You still haven't installed it
rare-sapphireOP•3y ago
I use winetricks -> "Install a Windows DLL or component" -> tick the boxes next to d3dcompiler_43 and d3dcompiler_47 -> hit OK
Isn't this how you install things?
extended-salmon•3y ago
Actually i never needed that for track mania
My steps where get the newest wine-ge (heroic wine manager). Make sure you run the command once in the read mea first post i left there. Toggle dxvk and vkd3d in the game settings
exotic-emerald•3y ago
yes that's correct
only happens with builtin d3dcompiler
so it's clearly not installed
probably a regressing d3dcompiler due to wine switching to vkd3d for shader compilation
since this person isin't using ge
and it's ubuntu
so it's some really old wine version, unless it was installed from the correct source
harsh-harlequin•3y ago
this isn't the first time I saw someone say they changed the Wine version to Wine-GE, but it keeps using the previous version it was set to
last time, it was someone using GE-Proton on the Deck, and it just would not let it go
robust-apricot•3y ago
are we sure that they change it for the game and not the general settings
harsh-harlequin•3y ago
In my situation, it was definitely in the game settings. They showed me a screenshot
rare-sapphireOP•3y ago
when I try to select wine-GE in the game settings, it says Wine path is invalid

extended-salmon•3y ago
Don't use wine lutris outside of lutris
harsh-harlequin•3y ago
This also includes using ProtonUp to install new versions of Wine-GE. It seems to pull Lutris builds even if directed to Heroic
rare-sapphireOP•3y ago
Well I installed Wine-GE-Proton7-43 from this: https://github.com/GloriousEggroll/wine-ge-custom/releases/tag/GE-Proton7-43, but the Installation guide is just for usage with Lutris
robust-apricot•3y ago
use the built in wine manager in heroic..
its one button click, no hassle
rare-sapphireOP•3y ago
Good: That worked for me. Thank you 🤗
Bad: When trying to log in, the error message "An Epic Games service is unavailable at the moment. Pleas try again later." shows:CatYeah:
This seems to be a common problem: https://www.reddit.com/r/TrackMania/comments/hmi4bx/an_epic_games_service_is_unavailable_at_the_moment/ Apparently the only solution is using UPlay, so all of this was for nothing. (Actually it's even worse because for some reason even CS:GO via Steam stopped working...?)
Anyway, thank y'all for the help 🙂
