You could try turning off esync, fsync, dxvk, vkd3d one at a time or all at once. Idk how it works on windows, ngl

windows doesnt have those dxvk and vkd3d are not needed in windows, and esync and fsync are linux kernel features literally since its native, legendary just has to run the executable
national-gold
national-gold2y ago
Right, but since it's on would that interfere?
conscious-sapphire
conscious-sapphire2y ago
there's nothing to interfere its not a feature on windows
national-gold
national-gold2y ago
So it would go to attempt them and fail, no? I really don't know
conscious-sapphire
conscious-sapphire2y ago
there's no wine instance or kernel commands that do that.. im not sure how heroic treats settings, but id assume it ignores them
Launch Command: HEROIC_APP_NAME=Calluna HEROIC_APP_RUNNER=legendary HEROIC_APP_SOURCE=epic C:\Users\przem\AppData\Local\Programs\heroic\resources\app.asar.unpacked\build\bin\win32\legendary launch Calluna --language en
Launch Command: HEROIC_APP_NAME=Calluna HEROIC_APP_RUNNER=legendary HEROIC_APP_SOURCE=epic C:\Users\przem\AppData\Local\Programs\heroic\resources\app.asar.unpacked\build\bin\win32\legendary launch Calluna --language en
you could try running this command directly in command line and see if the game launches

Oke, will try it tomorrow then
national-gold
national-gold2y ago
If it still doesn't launch, paste the output of cmd here
other-emerald
other-emeraldOP2y ago
Oke

doesnt appear in the launch command anywhere.. if you look at a similar linux call, the wine paths and e/fsync stuff get noted
WINEPREFIX="/home/allie/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/Alan Wake 2" WINEDLLOVERRIDES=winemenubuilder.exe=d MANGOHUD_CONFIGFILE=/home/allie/.config/MangoHud/MangoHud.conf WINE_FULLSCREEN_FSR=0 WINEESYNC=1 WINEFSYNC=1

Not totally sure, but you likely can just run this (maybe someone that knows the windows stuff more thoroughly knows better tho)
