Witcher 3 no HDR

Hi, 1) I have installed W3 from GOG via Heroic 2) then i set alternative exe to: '/HeroicGames/The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt GOTY/bin/x64_dx12/witcher.exe' 3) it works, with HDR but emulates the keyboard, no steam settings support and steam controler 4) i add it as non steam game to Steam library 5) game launches washed out colours, SteamDeck doesnt show "HDR" in status I tired: https://old.reddit.com/r/SteamDeck/comments/1865a46/psa_oled_users_launching_witcher3cyberpunk/ i experimented with "Force the user of a specific Steam Play compatibility tool" the game does not launch when i select this option no matter what proton i choose. any advice welcome, Have a nice day!

no HDR i think adding it as a chain: HEROIC -> STEAM was a mistake, i again added it to steam as plain .EXE '/HeroicGames/The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt GOTY/bin/x64_dx12/witcher.exe' Set the forcing policy for proton nad it finally worked, now i need to find out how to get saves to game 🙂 Thank you for help

Piecing this together between some Steam games requiring PROTON_ENABLE_AMD_AGS=1 %command% and that command resolving to a DLL override in the Proton code, I would suggest using an override for amd_ags_x64=b instead of creating a new prefix in Steam for the game

Hello, I'm having the same issue as OP. I have installed the Witcher 3 with Heroic Games Launcher on my OLED steam deck. When I launch the game through Heroic, the colours are all washed out (exactly the same as OP's screenshot above). I have directly added the EXE as a non-steam game to my library but this gives the same result. Any help would be appreciated ❤️
