Please thoroughly read #:pushpin: Read Me First | Frequently Asked Questions, your post is missing information required to be able to help you (specifically, game & Heroic logs; how you get to those is explained in the post)

Oh sorry How would i copy and paste the logs to discord? Especially if i don't have it on my steam deck
CommandMC

Uploading it to https://paste.debian.net/ & manually copying over the link should work Or you could just open the Web version of Discord, that's probably just as easy

Looks like it needs .NET, gimme a sec to test this out myself

Ok Any updates?

As @OOOOOF123 said in another thread: You need dotnet48 installed via Winetricks (game settings in Heroic -> "Winetricks" button -> "Select the default Wineprefix" -> "Install a Windows component or DLL" -> tick "dotnet48" and press Ok)

Ok Ill try it

correct-apricot2y ago
that's not the entire solution, but that gets you most of the way
CommandMC
CommandMC2y ago
Oh, you can probably also just launch setup.exe manually
correct-apricot
correct-apricot2y ago
yes, but this is less hassle i guess and the way it was intended to run
dependent-tan
dependent-tanOP2y ago
It said an error occured And also mentioned something about using 32 bit
correct-apricot
correct-apricot2y ago
logs? works for me
dependent-tan
dependent-tanOP2y ago
How would i get logs for dot48
correct-apricot
correct-apricot2y ago
just give the log heroic has the wine log it contains everything
dependent-tan
dependent-tanOP2y ago
Ok
CommandMC
CommandMC2y ago
Interestingly, this makes it install into a different location
No description
correct-apricot
correct-apricot2y ago
yeah that's the issue which I wanted to avoid
CommandMC
CommandMC2y ago
Ah, fair
correct-apricot
correct-apricot2y ago
I tried setup.exe before and it worked but I couldn't launch the launcher
CommandMC
CommandMC2y ago
Wonder if you can tell it where to install to via a start parameter or something
correct-apricot
correct-apricot2y ago
idk but I think our best bet is to run it the way it's meant to be run
CommandMC
CommandMC2y ago
I'd recommend that you don't look at the game_overrides in https://heroic.legendary.gl/v1/version.json then Seems like you can do all kinds of fun automation stuff with this thing; running it with /? gives quite some info And yup the default exe just launches setup.exe with -D$USER_INSTALL_DIR$=Z:\path\to\game

How can i change the drive for the game to my sd card?
correct-apricot
correct-apricot2y ago
You have to assign it to a drive Should be in /run/media I think
dependent-tan
dependent-tanOP2y ago
Okay ill try it once i get power I tried assigning it by doing run/media but it doesn't run the game now but instead says PLAYING (STOP)■ and then just goes back to PLAY NOW > @OOOOOF123

proton is ideally meant for Steam.

Any news for me possibly @Linguin Or anyone for that matter This is what i done so far ever since i followed the other thread and it hasn't seemed to work so far unless i missed a step Im going to keep this thread open in case others want to ask their questions, only way it will close is if mods close it. However most of the support was provided in this support forum post https://discord.com/channels/812703221789097985/1131634126970171392
