Cannot launch Wolfenstein: The New Order

Attempting to launch gives an error message (same as in log, provided) I resigned into my Epic Games account with no change compared to before (the log is from after resigning into my Epic account)

hmmm sounds like a legendary issue, can you try with legendary without heroic in the middle? (legendary is the tool we use in the background to launch epic games)

but the one you have is is old (from heroic 2.9.2, we just released 2.10.0 with an updated legendary) you might want to try updating heroic first, maybe the new legendary fixes the issue

so i launched legendary and did the list-installed command to see if legendary could even see wolfenstein but it didnt show up in the list .. tried looking at wolfenstein in heroic again and it couldnt load the game info ive checked the game's install directory and the game is there ..

try importing the game: legendary import <the app name> <the path to the intalled game> , the app name is displayed when you run legendary list

try repairing the game then you have the option in heroic clicking the 3 dots in the game page (make sure you use heroic 2.10.0, 2.9.2 has a bug) or use legendary repair command

so, adding a --disable-check to the end of this command is allowing me to verify the game! ^-^ its verifying atm that worked ^-^ game runs

Here the game crashes with a JSON parsing error: https://0x0.st/8Opi.log ignore this error, the Proton (GE) prefix was not clean (full disk). oh, the game doesn't like it when I switch desktops? Then it freezes?
