Cant get anything of interest on the game logs but im getting this in the application log
national-gold•3y ago
Maybe a process is stalled
flat-fuchsiaOP•3y ago
I just straight rebooted and get this on the logs
national-gold•3y ago
Delete the prefix and run it again. Things probably got messed up in the transition between versions earlier
flat-fuchsiaOP•3y ago
same issue, it appears to be something i have not configured correctly in my wine installation

make sure you have all wine dependencies, check the pinned Read Me First thread at #🆘-support

does this happen on the flatpak version of heroic launcher?
because i dedicated several hours without success to make non-proton wine work
adverse-sapphire•3y ago
No
There's a whole article that you can just copy paste from, I don't have the link rn as I'm on mobile

can't find anything for gentoo
like, I acknowledge wine was working fine and stopped at some point
and know, even re emerging it I get this same error in any wine app

Heroic - Settings - Winetricks - have you tried to create new prefix? https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Wine

flat-fuchsiaOP•3y ago
I deleted the ~/.wine folder to set it to default
and ran winecfg but it hangs
here is the log of winecfg hanging https://dpaste.com/3GVGDMA3F
second time I try to run it doesnt even log anything

Any other games work? Flatpak version 2.7.0?
flat-fuchsiaOP•3y ago
I tried flatpak and still getting the same kernel32 error
And it happens in any application, so I guess heroic has nothing to do with this
exotic-emerald•3y ago
Gentoo is like a different language to me 🙂 will probably need someone else to help with fixing your Wine / Config
flat-fuchsiaOP•3y ago
alright, thanks for the support though
adverse-sapphire•3y ago
are you new to linux in any way? (if you are you shouldn't be using gentoo)
even me I wouldn't use gentoo and I have been using linux for a few years
anyways
I would try figuring out how to configure multilib/multiarch on gentoo
and install the basic multiarch things like lib32-glibc for example
flat-fuchsiaOP•3y ago
Im starting to suspect it doesnt have to do with my multilib setup
for some reason wine runs perfectly fine when sudoing
I tried to copy the root prefix to my user and changing ownership but no success
Finally found out why
I use fish as the user shell and for some reason breaks the creation of the wine prefix
Work around it by running heroic with bash, delete the prefix and let heroic's winecfg create it
