THPS 1+2 - please run the game via epic launcher, internet connection required
Hello. Few months ago THPS 1+2 from Epic worked perfectly fine on Steam Deck. After few months I've tried yesterday to play but while running white window appears and shows error "please run the game via epic launcher, internet connection required" (I have HGL in Polish, that error is not 1:1 in English) and game crashes. Ofc, Wi-Fi is on with stable internet connection. I've tried almost everything but uninstalling, which I really want to avoid. Any ideas?

If needed, I'll send log then I go back to home.

Yeah, the log will show us your config where we can probably find some hints

ok, game started but whole screen is black, I'll try to troubleshoot
still, maybe hgl checked it when I've tapped airplane mode in SD's settings in aircraft
genetic-orange•15mo ago
so for the black screen you'll probably need some directx stuff
like
d3dcompiler_43 or d3dcompiler_47
you can try getting those via Winetricks in game settingsambitious-aquaOP•15mo ago
okay, gonna try it tomorrow, thx 👍

After some troubleshooting Proton 7 worked, maybe in 8, hotfix and experimental have some code which crashes the game.
