[SOLVED] Games fail to start with proton ge + umu enabled
I did see 2 posts from 20 days ago, but for me its still the case for some reason. Using heroic-games-launcher-bin from aur. Here are example logs from killl knight and ghost runner.
NOff the bat, remove the quotes in your environment variables. Disable use steam runtime
Dseems you may have internet connection issues as well
Srip, forgot to enable notifications on 'all' messages
So , the UMU requires access to steam servers? Cuz currently i'm in vietnam, and steam is blocked here (βα’β)

NTry using a VPN and see if that changes behavior
Syep, it did
but why UMU needs steem server connection?

Si thought its some local steam libs that protonge uses
Dno one ever said it used steam servers, however it still reaches out to the internet to find fixes for games and install them automatically
Swell that's steam that is blocked in vietnam and that gets fixed by using vpn so i assume its reaching out to steam servers
Scuz otherwise internet connection is just fine
Dyou can have some other configuration issues with your internet
Dbut umu reaches out to umu protonfixes server to get fixes not steam.
Dlike bad dns or similar
Smaybe local isp or dns messing things even more than they should yes
Dyeah
Dyou can force your dns to 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8 or something and see if that helps off the vpn
DThere was an umu bug with it not working properly if it couldn't connect to the internet, it's been fixed but there hasn't been an umu version bump yet
Pumu currently uses Valveβs prebuilt Steam Runtime (sniper) thatβs hosted on repo.steampowered.com for running Proton and on first install, it will need to download it
PWhich is the reason why, if you noticed, the game launch may take a while when initially enabling umu in HGL
PThen for subsequent game launches, it will call out to that endpoint to ensure the runtime used is up to date
PIn the near future, this will change once we decide and move to building the runtime from source
PSince at that point umu will download it from an endpoint like GitHub instead
