Switch to Wine instead of Proton
foreign-sapphireOP•2y ago

could you run flatpak update
foreign-sapphireOP•2y ago
It's all up to date. My other games run fine, it's just this one that's having problems.
fascinating-indigo•2y ago
it can't be up to date... you are on mesa 23.1.6
and mesa 23.1.6 has major bugs
so it's best to get off of it
maybe you just have to restart heroic

Don't know what the location property we use for but this is still pointing to proton prefix. That does seem like a bug
foreign-sapphireOP•2y ago
I finished installing the game with Lutris and it's working that way.
fascinating-indigo•2y ago
oh yeah that gog saves location is wrong...
we should fix that

plot twist all it needs is MSVC2019_x64
it's possible to reevaluate it in game settings
but I agree, doing so automatically is good idea
