[SOLVED.] Amazon Store Games Have Alot Of Issues And Don't Work
[SOLVED. https://discord.com/channels/812703221789097985/1133245435633467492/1133454256242966599]
Essentially, all of the games ive downloaded throught heroic, from amazon, have refused to launch. The closest ive gotten is manually adding the games .exe. and even then, there are problems. as an example, i am trying to run shovel knight: showdown, when using the amazon store version, it doesnt even try to launch, when making a wrapper for it through heroic (for the exe), it still refuses to work on any wine-ge and proton-ge build, running it with base wine allows the game to launch, but to a black screen (audio plays). logs will be attatched to post

I should add; this isnt a game specific problem (used shovel knight as my main test tho)
no amazon games launch at all
as i have tried multiple, from many different generations
