could you use wine-ge
and you are using heroic 2.9.0 not 2.9.2 :CatYeah:
please update since 2.9.0 is a broken release

same problem with win-ge
I update to 2.9.2 same problem
Another problem
save are not synched when I close the game ( in steam )
and my play time is ever 0

send a log
ill investigate this, actually nvm gog stuff is getting refactored
also send a regular heroic log
like-goldOP•2y ago
this is when I launch directly from heroic without pass trought steam
like-goldOP•2y ago
it sync the save correctly
xenial-black•2y ago
that's still proton-ge
like-goldOP•2y ago
yeah it's the same with wine
xenial-black•2y ago
yeah but proton logs have nothing useful in them to debug the issue, they store logs in their own special location
that's why im asking to send a wine log

radv 23.1.6 has bugs
latest on flatpak is 23.1.7
wonder why that didn't update, that's actually really strange

the saves are not synched automatically when I launch trought steam shortcut (in gaming mode) and the play time is ever 0

yep those all have to be updated
yes I understand
you are online on your steam deck right (in gaming mode)?
omg we never set the online status when playing through steam
how did this go uncaught
like-goldOP•2y ago
yes I checked the wi-fi before closing the game
xenial-black•2y ago
nvm
we do

what?

I think your problem with stutter is more like a problem with setting to high graphic settings and not caping fps to like 30-40
xenial-black•2y ago
why is the playtime and save syncs not working tho, that's the more interesting part

For me Witcher 3 was running fine on steam deck after a little bit of tweaking the graphics
I don't know. Probably messed up prefix. I would recommend removing the prefix folder and just create a fresh one with wine-ge. Also disable steam runtime.

I have tried to unistall and reinstall the game and recreated the prefix. When launch trought the launcher the saves sync correctly when I launch from steam in game mode on steam deck, don't sync
So I found, for some reason, that only when started in Directx11 mode it stutters, in DX12 don't.
In the Witcher 3 GOG version on steam deck I have hard stuttering when visiting new areas caused by shaders compilation (In steam version I don't have this issue) also tested the game in my second partition with Windows 11 and have same problem with stutters. But when launch the game trought DirectX 12, the stutters are gone. There is a tecnical explanation to this?
I have tried both wine-ge and proton-ge
xenial-black•2y ago
yeah there is a techinical explanation and I won't go into it, since this issue should no longer apply
if I remember correctly you were using flatpak and radv 23.1.6 which has known bugs
once the flatpak is updated you should see stutters going away on both dx11 and dx12
