Heroic wont launch games when using gamescope (Garuda Linux)

when i launch a game using gamescope through heroic, it fails to launch the game and no gamescope window ever pops up. none of this happens on steam or using anything else. i've tried older versions of heroic, changing kernels, tried running the games with different options enabled, nothing solved the issue. possibly related issue: i use this program input remapper to remap inputs (as the name suggests), but every time i launch a game in heroic it stops the loaded profile for some reason. heroic log file: https://pastebin.com/pMe0fsg1 using an 5600xt and the latest kernel arch repositories provide.

launching with gamescope doesnt actually give any log so the logs are without

Did you tried wine-ge from our wine-manager already?

wine/proton version seems to not matter i should probably ask the garuda forums instead, because this doesnt seem to be the heroic launchers fault

the game logs outlined in the readme.. game settings -> report a problem, as noted in the read me first post
Game issue: If your issue is in-game (so technically "after" Heroic), include the game-specific log file (Game Page -> "Report a problem running this game") with your message

Also, if you want further assistance, please use Wine-GE instead of Proton or GE-Proton

its not game specific nor wine/proton specific. it happens with any version of wine, with any game unrelated to if its epic games or just a manually added game. think ill just close this post because looking at the issue now, it doesnt seem to be a issue with heroic more so my OS so, ill close this post and consult the garuda forums.
