no

That seems very recent
Add the
WINEDEBUG=+fixme
and DXVK_LOG_LEVEL=info
environment variables to the game, re-run it, and then send in a new logwise-whiteOP•4mo ago

I think the developers of this game made a special loading screen for the moment of connecting to the servers. Because before this screen comes, there is a screen that says “connecting to the servers” and then it makes you wait on this screen. So this could be a problem of not connecting to the server.

I already enabled it

This seems to be a NixOS quirk, because I have had games working flawlessly when Heroic reports
undefined
for the GPU. I have yet to figure out why.wise-whiteOP•4mo ago

wise-whiteOP•4mo ago
Here you can see EOS enabled
If Heroic is using
lshw
that might be why. Because it is not installed.wise-white•4mo ago
Have you tried with gamemode disabled?
wise-whiteOP•4mo ago
yes
wise-white•4mo ago
Hmm...
wise-whiteOP•4mo ago
enabled/disabled gamemode tried... enabled/disabled gamescope... didn't work

UMU and EOS activated.
but not working
wise-white•4mo ago
What's Heroic doing under the hood to make the EOS overlay available to the game?
wise-whiteOP•4mo ago
Tried a lot of things but didn't work. (Even tried switch from wayland to x11)

If anyone else gets this issue and finds this via search like i did.
Using the flatpak version of Heroic on NixOS seems to work seamlessly but the standard Heroic package doesn't seem to load the Epic overlay properly regardless of the options in the launcher for Hell Let Loose Epic games version.
The Game uses the overlay to authenticate to get past that stuck loading screen after the "Press any button to continue" screen.
