are you trying in desktop mode or gaming mode?
I played this game like a year ago and it worked out of the box on the steam deck
national-goldOP•2y ago
I tried both
Yeah I see it should be compatible but I’m not sure what’s wrong

back then I used Wine-GE-Proton7-35, maybe try an older wine version? doesn't hurt to try
national-goldOP•2y ago
I don’t have the option to choose that one in desktop mode. Is it only available in gaming mode?
genetic-orange•2y ago
you have to install it, in the sidebar go to the Wine Manager section and install an old wine, then go to the game's settings and set that wine

Omg thank you very much i think it works now
I was able to watch the cinematic that I didn’t even know existed!
genetic-orange•2y ago
hmmm from that comment, I wonder if it works with the new wine if you enable the option Prefer System Libraries in the settings
a user had a problem with videos in newer wine versions and setting that option fixed that

Is there a difference between newer wine versions than old ones?
Like if I were to stick with this version instead of the new version, will I miss out on anything?
genetic-orange•2y ago
for that game I think you can stick with the old version just fine, but in general you want to use the latest versions of wine to have all the fixes and improvements
national-goldOP•2y ago
Hmm I see
genetic-orange•2y ago
for that game I played it completely with that wine version so it's fine
national-goldOP•2y ago
Got it thank you. Also, I see you are often engaged with helping people out here. Are you developer for heroic by chance?
genetic-orange•2y ago
yes, I'm one of the developers
national-goldOP•2y ago
Wow that’s awesome. I really appreciate you guys’ work!
I have other questions regarding other games, do you suggest I create another post for them or can I ask them here?
genetic-orange•2y ago
one thread per game, makes things less confusing
national-goldOP•2y ago
That makes sense. Thanks again!
Would this be in the game settings or elsewhere? I was able to play the first few mins of the game without crashing. After I got to the to the second short cinematic (where the characters fall off the bridge), the game crashed again. I wonder if setting it to Prefer System Libraries will fix that.
genetic-orange•2y ago
game settings in heroic, I think it's in the Advanced tab
national-goldOP•2y ago
I tried it and the game still crashes. Is my deck possibly defected? Most of my games crashes regularly (granted most are non-steam games). Even games that are supposed to be playable out of the box like this one crashes more often than I’d like. My experience with the deck hasn’t been smooth and I’m thinking about exchanging it. Do you have any other advice for me?
genetic-orange•2y ago
no idea if it could be defected
I would try doing a factory reset just in case it's a software issue, but I couldn't really suggest it's defected
national-goldOP•2y ago
Do you have any other advice regarding getting to run Greak?
genetic-orange•2y ago
nope, I was able to play the game completely with no tweaking or anything, so I don't know
national-goldOP•2y ago
If I factory reset my steam deck, will my settings in heroic save?
genetic-orange•2y ago
I don't really know
