No title outside the stores launchable
My setting: Ayaneo 2 with bazzite and the Heroic Launcher.
I have several games on my hardrive which i can install to my device. But when i add it to the Heroic Launcher, nothing happens. Has anybody a clue for me? Here is a video as example from bear and breakfast: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VGbReTBl7Og
Games from the stores like EPIC works fine

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:
1. Head to the Wine Manager in Heroic, click the "Proton-GE" tab, and install "Proton-GE-Latest"
2. Head to the settings for your game(s) (icon on game card in library). In the "Wine Version" dropdown, select "Proton - Proton-GE-latest"
3. 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.adverse-sapphireOP•3mo ago

To help you, we need a game log. Please see the following images on how to get it.

i think you got your log a little too early

hmmm the game starts and immediately stop. There are no more info in the log
should i uninstall the Heroic Launcher and try it again?

You have the game installed outside the permissible folders

where i should install the games? in the folder heroic/prefixes? or can i give heroic permission to the folder of the installation?

~/Games/Heroic is the default permissible folder. you could also give permission to the folder it's in as well, but it's neater to just use the folders already allocatedadverse-sapphireOP•3mo ago
Yeah! That was the clue 🙂 thanks a lot 😄
