BG3 does not properly install
BG3 on steam deck installs to about 35 percent via GoG at which point it changes to being done.
It leaves a whole host of empty files etc and he game and launcher do not even start.
Any help would be appreciated as I do not really want to use Lutris.

Mine installation stopped somewhere in the middle too. Then I selected "force update if available" and it finished installation. Had to install dotnet desktop runtime 6 via winetrics, because otherwise Larian launcher doesn't work. After that everything except cloud saves work.
Correction:Cloud saves work, but you have to login to Larian account every time you launch the game

you probably have wine prefix in inaccessible location
make sure it's somewhere in /home/deck/Heroic/Games/Prefixes

Changed gogdl to lastest commit. Still have to login to Larian account everytime I open the game if I want cloud saves. Should I change my prefixes directory? You mentioned that it should be in .../Heroic/Games and mine is in .../Games/Heroic

@Wargzax
Thank you! This worked perfectly!
Does multiplayer work for you? It says it cannot connect to GoG Galaxy
There’s also some mismatch related to redistributables flagged by the launcher
broad-brown•2y ago
I also see "cannot Connect to GoG" message. Same with mismatched files
ambitious-aqua•2y ago
cannot Connect to GoG is currently expected, as we don't provide Galaxy SDK yet
it will take some time for Heroic to support it

There’s also some mismatch related to redistributables flagged by the launchercould you provide more context on that? like a log and screenshots of the error?

But people getting it on Windows too, so I don't think it's a problem
Sorry can't upload a log because it apparently takes 69 MB of space

I'll test it myself soon, verifying game files might be good idea, also maybe check gogdl log in
~/.var/app/com.heroicgameslauncher.hgl/config/heroic/logs if I'm correctbroad-brown•2y ago
I tried verifying files multiple time
stormy-goldOP•2y ago
I also cannot upload logs due to file size
And for reference you can still do multiplayer via direct connect as long as you select the option so it’s not the end of the world

Logs do compress very well

Not at PC currently unfortunately
Can send when I get home though if still required

Deck is also a pc 🐸
Tho i assume that is just mislabeled then ( issue has both Linux and Deck tags )
stormy-goldOP•2y ago
See this is where an annoying individual makes me leave the server and not provide the logs as requested now
