Steam launch commands for NFS: MW (2005)
I am trying to launch said game with steam commands from heroic. There is a wide-screen mod that requires an override to work properly. Can I add steam commands to heroic so it launches with the override in steam?
Worst case I can just add as a non steam game, but I'd like to have my games all in one place

Pretty sure you can't add steam games to Heroic, but you can tell heroic to launch a game with the steam runtime. Send a log, though, because that will show us exactly how you're trying to run it.
To help you, we need a game log. Please see the following images on how to get it.

For clarification: this game never had a digital release (to my knowledge) and only ever existed as a cd rom
I think I explained wrong. I am not trying to add a steam game to heroic. I am trying to add a game to steam, through heroic, and also use steam launch commands to use the override

what do you mean by a steam command? you mean arguments to launch the game as you would do in steam with the
%command% strings?
there is a game arguments option in the game settings in heroic were you put that usually (without the %command% part)rival-black•6mo ago
to add you wouldnt add any steam argument stuff in steam.. you'd set this all within heroic, then when you add the game to steam from heroic, it will launch it with all those args

@Allora @arieljuod WINEDLLOVERRIDES="dinput8=n,b" is the argument I need to add.
Thats what I was trying to do, I just didn't explain it well

That’s an environment variable. Add that to the environment variables section
Don’t include the quotes in Heroic

Do I include the "command" line
like-gold•6mo ago
just
WINEDLLOVERRIDES as the env name, and dinput8=n,b as the env variable, then press the + buttonharsh-harlequin•6mo ago
No because that is a Steam-specific instruction that places in the launch command at that spot
Heroic already knows to put things in the right place relative to the launch command
