(Flatpak) Games not launching

Hello! First off, I would like to thank everyone who made this amazing client :pogr_moment: After following the wiki for Fall Guys and EOS Overlay, it doesn't launch after I press play. I: - am currently using the Flatpak version on Arch Linux - am using LeftWM as my WM - am running the client with these variables:
- __NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 - __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia - __VK_LAYER_NV_optimus=NVIDIA_only
- have Feral GameMode installed on the host and checked the Use Feral GameMode box - provided the attachment that is provided after clicking the Report a problem with this game. - already tried the workarounds in Read Me First | Frequently Asked Questions

The installation folder is outside of the default permissible folders Did you already accommodate that?

yes, I already added the directory in Flatseal before launching

Are you able to play other games? I’m suspecting a GPU issue

Steam games work fine, I haven't tried other games on Heroic yet I'll install Rocket League and see how it goes

Are you using the Steam flatpak or natively installed package?

Okay, so I tested Rocket League. It first launched a black window, then suddenly closed. Here's the log.

I updated the title to reflect the wording better Also added the fact that I toggled GameMode on in my initial post

If you enabled using the dedicated GPU, also use DXVK-NVAPI And also verify that you have the proper Nvidia runtime flatpak that matches your system’s driver version

@termdisc I deleted the environment variables that I use to launch Heroic, and instead enabled Use Dedicated Graphics Card in each game, along with the DXVK-NVAPI checkbox. However, the problem still persists, with the same error as this.

The log doesn’t indicate NVAPI was enabled

Both the NVIDIA driver on my system and the Flatpak runtime have the same version (545.29.06)

Enable nvidia prime perhaps?

Reenabled the NVIDIA environment variables through Flatseal; relaunched RL, but still same problem
