Wine-GE is rather old now (last release is almost a year ago) and thus might not work correctly. Please follow these instructions on using GE-Proton with umu instead: 1. Head to the Wine Manager in Heroic, click the "Proton-GE" tab, and install "Proton-GE-Latest" 2. Enable umu in "Settings" (Heroic sidebar) -> "Advanced" -> "Use UMU as Proton runtime" Note: For a visual guide, see attached image 3. Head to the settings for your game(s) (icon on game card in library). In the "Wine Version" dropdown, select "Proton - Proton-GE-latest" 4. Rename your Wineprefix (path is shown in game settings), e.g. from current-name to current-name_bak. To clarify: Rename the actual folder on your hard drive, do not change the option in the game settings. Note: This will make game-specific configuration data (e.g. in-game settings or save files) unavailable. If this is an issue, let us know & we'll help you restore them.

Skip that step for now. There were changes to UMU since that was written

Alright What about the folder tho? The game still won't launch after following the other steps
other-emerald

You can rename or delete that folder you'll need to post a new log with verbose logging

Sorry, I'm not sure what a verbose logging is Tried again after updating heroic launcher but no luck https://0x0.st/8SwE.log Not getting any error pop up this time tho The button just goes from "playing (stop)" to "play now" and nothing happens

enable verbose logging please also verify what version of mesa is installed. I have doubts that you're using a recent enough version of it to have 9070 support, especially on Mint

I just checked and it looks like I can't open any game from epic via heroic launcher Tried to install and run among us and sonic mania, in both cases some kind of window has popped up for half a second and immediately disappeared

post new log with verbose logging enabled.

I assume it's the same thing as verbose boot? I have tried to enable it but it didn't seem to work Is there any guide I could follow to enable it on mint?

Since this one seems to be dedicated for MACs I tried the other launcher recommended for Linux there
