Crashes basically on launch ^ I can interact (sometimes) with the main menu though seconds before it crashes

First, that is an old version of Heroic. You should upgrade. Second, you should include the title of the problematic game in the thread topic, to aid searching and so that people with experience with the game can see more easily where they might help.

also its some random obscure game i'm sure not many people will know about but it should be playable considering it works on the steam version for steam deck

Consider that you may still be using an old version of Proton there. You should upgrade that as well. And you may want to try Wine instead.

Which one is wine, I've been trying to install that but I couldn't fine anywhere to get it

From Heroic's Wine Manager.

Oh damn, didn't know this was a thing, I've been using the actual proton application thing or whatever

Bbroad-emerald From Heroic's Wine Manager. 😉

Damn still doesn't work though sadly so idk whats up with that, is it possible a game from the steam store can run perfectly fine but from something like epic games it just be completely incompatible with steam deck?

broad-emerald•6/3/23, 11:02 PM

Yes, quite possible.

Can you send a fresh log? You'll find it at the bottom of the game's page: "Report a problem..."

I did also find something on google, are you familiar with what the "EOS" log is?

(I went to that reddit post but his comment was not very helpful)

broad-emerald•6/3/23, 11:08 PM

Ah. Epic thing. There's a checkbox in the Heroic game settings.

broad-emerald•6/3/23, 11:08 PM

In the Advanced section, I think.

moderate-tomatoOP•6/3/23, 11:09 PM

Oh yes thank you, Ill give it a try now when it installs hopefully it runs

broad-emerald•6/3/23, 11:09 PM

moderate-tomatoOP•6/3/23, 11:12 PM

Damn dont think it worked, maybe I have to open the overlay or something idk? dont really know what this eos thing is

broad-emerald•6/3/23, 11:13 PM

Neither do I. I don't even have an Epic account.

moderate-tomatoOP•6/3/23, 11:29 PM

Ah yes I understand, I just launched it on my pc, I need to find a way to get this popup to show on the steam deck

Bbroad-emerald Neither do I. I don't even have an Epic account.

moderate-tomatoOP•6/3/23, 11:31 PM

Oh wait hell yea that worked lmao, I just launched it on my pc to get that popup, now it works on the deck, thanks for the eos help though and wine stuff

broad-emerald•6/3/23, 11:33 PM
