Cloud sync question

When downloading games to heroic launcher, I know you can use it to add a game to steam to launch it on its own without going into heroic first. My question is, if I am playing a GOG game that supports cloud saves, once I am done a play session, will the save be uploaded to the cloud automatically or do I have to open heroic to have that upload be initiated?

when adding a game to Steam using the Add to steam option in heroic, heroic runs in the background when you launch the game so it handles saves, no need to open it manually

OK cool. I have developer mode turned on so I can switch between windows for other reasons but I guess in this case heroic is running in the background in a different way in that it cannot be switched to. so any launch arguments i want to use for the game i would put them in heroic right? Like I want to use widescreen fix for the saboteur so the wine argument would go in heroic not steam right?

yes, in heroic, since heroic is the one ultimately launching the game

for the saboteur when using heroic games launcher, I want to use the fusion fix and to do so, you have to use WINEDLLOVERRIDES="dinput8=n,b" %command% as alaunch argument, except heroic does not allow the use of "%command%". what do i need to do instead?

there's an environment variables section in one of the tabs in the game's settings, WINEDLLOVERRIDES would be the name, dinput8=n,b the value, then click the + button
