HGL

STALKER 2 issue when attempting to launch GOG version of game using HGL.

I was able to get this game running seamlessly when on Ubuntu 24.04 back in December. After taking a break and switching distros to Fedora 41, I cannot get this game to work at all. When attempting to launch, I get as far as the loading screen before I get a Wine C++ Runtime Library error related to Stalker2-Win64-Shipping.exe (see screenshot for error message). Other games work as expected so I'm hoping to get any pointers as to where I can look to find a solution. I'd hate to go to a DRM platform for a game I already bought at full price or boot into a Windows partition whenever I decide to play this game but it's seeming like the only way. Any help is appreciated!

I don’t trust the nouveau driver

Bingo! Apparently during my distro hopping spree, I forgot to install the proprietary Nvidia drivers. After installing them, it's fixed! Thanks a bunch for the help!
