adding non steam games

Hi all pretty new here. I managed to add all my non steam launchers with the Non steam launchers sh. But I'm having a hard time understanding how to point steam to games installed by these launchers. Please bare in mind I come from windows so I'm having a bit of trouble wrapping my head around this. When I install a game on a launcher I see the file path as in windows. C:/etc etc but when I click add non steam game in desktop mode I can't find that app installed. I'm guessing it's being installed in another partition or something like that? Anyways appreciate any help getting this fixed.

Non steam launchers

This tool breaks every single wine best practice there is, we can't support it's use.
We bundle Lutris OOTB, I would recommend switching to that.

Oh damn

Nicolas AndradeOP•12/27/23, 1:27 AM

No wonder I had such a hard time getting it to run. I'll check that out thanks. Do I have to do a clean install? Or where do I go from here?

Kyle Gospo•12/27/23, 1:27 AM

I would just remove non-steam and then go from there, it can't have modified anything in your system files since Bazzite is immutable

Kyle Gospo•12/27/23, 1:28 AM

Lutris is good for everything except EGS, which you can use with Heroic Launcher

Nicolas AndradeOP•12/27/23, 1:29 AM

And is there a way to add the heroic launcher stuff over to steam?

I have other issues should I open another thread for each?

Kyle Gospo•12/27/23, 1:32 AM

here's fine

Nicolas AndradeOP•12/27/23, 1:32 AM

So I have a old plasma

Nicolas AndradeOP•12/27/23, 1:32 AM

And it has a lot of over scan

Nicolas AndradeOP•12/27/23, 1:32 AM

I fixed it in desktop mode with the scale for tv option

Nicolas AndradeOP•12/27/23, 1:33 AM

But gaming mode ignores that setting and most of the sides are cropped out

Kyle Gospo•12/27/23, 1:33 AM

I'm afraid gamescope has no overscan option

Nicolas AndradeOP•12/27/23, 1:33 AM

Ok! Hopefully it can become a feature some time

Also Xbox controller with Bluetooth has a bit of issues sometimes connection drops, lag, and it does not pair automatically after boot.

Nicolas AndradeOP•12/27/23, 1:35 AM

Is this something Bluetooth related or Linux? Because I was thinking about buying the reciever if it would Improve performance

Nicolas AndradeOP•12/27/23, 1:35 AM

Also I think with the reciver you can passthrough audio?

Nicolas AndradeOP•12/27/23, 1:35 AM

Is this possible with bazzite?

Kyle Gospo•12/27/23, 1:36 AM

Not sure on this one, there are some upstream BT issues but they shouldn't be a problem with xbox controllers, not in this way

Kyle Gospo•12/27/23, 1:36 AM

BT audio works fine, but IIRC no controller-based audio jack works

Kyle Gospo•12/27/23, 1:36 AM

most of those are proprietary

Nicolas AndradeOP•12/27/23, 1:36 AM

Maybe it's my dongle?

Kyle Gospo•12/27/23, 1:36 AM

it's possible

Kyle Gospo•12/27/23, 1:37 AM

can always double check w/ stock fedora silverblue/kinoite to see if the problem occurs there too

Kyle Gospo•12/27/23, 1:37 AM

our changes to bluetooth are very small

Kyle Gospo•12/27/23, 1:37 AM

looks like a knockoff of MS's adapter

Kyle Gospo•12/27/23, 1:39 AM

no idea if this would work

Kyle Gospo•12/27/23, 1:39 AM

These aren't bluetooth

Noted, thanks. I'll see what I can find

Supposedly you can get audio and everything working with that on windows but haven't tried

Nicolas AndradeOP•12/27/23, 10:46 PM

Awesome this helped a lot

Nicolas AndradeOP•12/27/23, 10:46 PM

However I added cyberpunk from gog and death strading from epic and neither had my current save game

termdisc•12/27/23, 10:52 PM

did you download your save via the Heroic cloud sync menu?

Nicolas AndradeOP•12/27/23, 11:36 PM

No, that sounds like what I'm missing let me check

termdisc•12/27/23, 11:38 PM

Heroic does not have auto sync enabled by default on purpose. you need to verify the save folder and also that it downloaded the right stuff to the right place just in case it pulls it to the wrong place or uploads from the wrong place

termdisc•12/27/23, 11:38 PM

cross check the auto detected save folder with PC Gaming Wiki. note that some games use your Epic ID as part of the save path similar to Steam

Nicolas AndradeOP•12/27/23, 11:38 PM

Ok I'm setting it up right now
