You don't have the alternative exe set to the
fix.bat

Adding some context here, maybe this will help
I've have a separate EPIC Games Launcher Prefix and it gives the same error.

So just try with Proton Hotfix
GE 9-26 is not recommended
absent-sapphireOP•6mo ago
I see, thanks
I will try it, I've followed the guide 😦
fair-rose•6mo ago
You just have to set game to Proton Hotfix
No further interaction needed
You do that operation within Heroic
Then launch game from Steam
absent-sapphireOP•6mo ago
trying right now)
fair-rose•6mo ago
Should fix it
absent-sapphireOP•6mo ago
https://0x0.st/8jl2.log
it doesn't give any error now, it loads farther, but then just closes
fair-rose•6mo ago
Hmm, so something changed but not quite
Try launching within Heroic in desktop mode
Instead of gamemode
absent-sapphireOP•6mo ago
yes, that log is from desktop actually
"useGameMode": false,
fair-rose•6mo ago
That option is something else, Feral's gamemode
Not Steam Deck game mode
absent-sapphireOP•6mo ago
ah
well I'm in desktop as in gamemode I can't upload a log
I'm trying proton-hotfix with my epic-games separate prefix. And it works actually
maybe I need to delete the Heroic GTAV prefix and start from scratch?
Thank you so much!

I’ll update the wiki. That’s on me from seeing the GTA patch notes in 26
FWIW I believe GE is planning on releasing a new version of GE-Proton with the same fix that's in Experimental soon

fair-rose•6mo ago
GE release schedule wildly depends on what he is up to at that moment, as that message you posted is from 6 days ago
Better update wiki to Hotfix
As those dates "soon TM"s are not that much soon 🐸
blank-aquamarine•6mo ago
I put in an implicit Soon™️
Yup didn't even realize it was already a week ago until I posted it, time's flying recently
Experimental isn't great to recommend since it doesn't have Protonfixes (so Winetricks won't work with it), but it's better than the game not working at all
