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.

also youre on an AMD GPU, turn this off
stormy-goldOP•7mo ago
Where should I turn it off?
(Sorry I'm a newbie)
extended-salmon•7mo ago
im not on linux* but id imagine itd be listed somewhere here
stormy-goldOP•7mo ago
Got it, thanks
stormy-goldOP•7mo ago
The UMU setting isn't there for me btw
stormy-goldOP•7mo ago
Also, this is the folder I'm supposed to rename?
continuing-cyan•7mo ago
Skip that step for now. There were changes to UMU since that was written
stormy-goldOP•7mo ago
Alright
What about the folder tho?
The game still won't launch after following the other steps
continuing-cyan•7mo ago
You can rename or delete that folder
you'll need to post a new log with verbose logging
stormy-goldOP•7mo ago
Sorry, I'm not sure what a verbose logging is
Tried again after updating heroic launcher but no luck

Not getting any error pop up this time tho
The button just goes from "playing (stop)" to "play now" and nothing happens
continuing-cyan•7mo ago
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.
stormy-goldOP•7mo ago
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?
vicious-gold•7mo ago
its in the game settings
vicious-gold•7mo ago
termdisc asked for the logs and you never gave them

Thanks, I will give it a try!
stormy-goldOP•7mo ago
Since this one seems to be dedicated for MACs I tried the other launcher recommended for Linux there
stormy-goldOP•7mo ago
Sadly encountering same issue as with the heroic launcher
extended-salmon•7mo ago
odd
im not exactly the best with linux support but someone should swing by and help you eventually
stormy-goldOP•7mo ago
Gotcha, thanks for the help!
