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.foreign-sapphire•3w ago
you'll also need to check and uncheck the "disable umu" box

send a new log
rare-sapphireOP•3w ago
what dose that mean?
foreign-sapphire•3w ago
you need your wine runner to be a stock Proton (not GE-Proton, as I earlier suggested)
and keep Steam running in the background
rare-sapphireOP•3w ago

foreign-sapphire•3w ago
open Steam. do nothing else.

@Z5151 new guidance: use Proton 10, enable umu (check and uncheck the disable umu box), and set environment variable
WINEDLLOVERRIDES = lsteamclient=d
rare-sapphireOP•3w ago
how i can set environment ?
foreign-sapphire•3w ago
wait nm, hold on. I messed something up
Settings, Advanced

rare-sapphireOP•3w ago
thanks termdisc

i think im encountering the same problem, where can i select a stock proton? cant find it under the wine manager tab
foreign-sapphire•2w ago
you install them in Steam
foreign-sapphire•2w ago
settings -> compatibility?
foreign-sapphire•2w ago
you just install it from the library, search for Proton
you do not need to set it in the compatibility menu because you'd be using Heroic for that after you install it
foreign-sapphire•2w ago
tysm
foreign-sapphire•2w ago
np
foreign-sapphire•2w ago
https://0x0.st/8wkT.log sooo somehow it still doesn't work, idk what im doing wrong ;^;
foreign-sapphire•2w ago
You have GE-Proton set
foreign-sapphire•2w ago
ooops
so i assume that to add the proton version from steam i have to add a ne custom wine/proton path and use that?
foreign-sapphire•2w ago
No, you just choose it from the dropdown menu
@truekingnaldo
foreign-sapphire•2w ago

foreign-sapphire•2w ago

foreign-sapphire•2w ago


foreign-sapphire•2w ago

foreign-sapphire•2w ago

foreign-sapphire•2w ago
are you using snap or flatpak steam?
foreign-sapphire•2w ago
👀

foreign-sapphire•2w ago
ohh ist that bad?
foreign-sapphire•2w ago
it's better to have game-specific prefixes especially when each one may require different things
foreign-sapphire•2w ago
snap

Valve is seeing an increasing number of bug reports for issues caused by Canonical's repackaging of the Steam client through snap.
The best way to install Steam on Debian and derivative operating systems is to follow the instructions at github.com/ValveSoftware/steam… and use the official .deb
We are not involved with the snap repackaging. It has a lot of issues.
If you don't want the .deb, please at least consider the flatpak version.

ahhh ok ima intsall the flatpak version then xD
eh responded to the wrong msg sry, but i changed the prefix folder 😄
soo it still doesnt show up even tho i have the flatpak version now but i feel like maybe the folder Proton 10 is stored in is weird? ~/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Proton 10.0 ist the directory its stored in...
fixed it, thanks for the help ❤️
foreign-sapphire•2w ago
That folder is fine for the flatpak
