Heroic will prefer System umu if it finds it. Check your game log for the wrapper path

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

This output is really strange. Are you running a development environment of Heroic?

genetic-orangeOP•2mo ago

genetic-orangeOP•2mo ago

Seems like you forgot to run pnpm download-helper-binaries (I think that's the command? It's in the readme somewhere)

genetic-orangeOP•2mo ago

genetic-orangeOP•2mo ago

CommandMC•2mo ago

Could you send in a new game log (ideally as a file)?

What's going on here? Anyways, there are quite a few things happening here I'm not sure about. Perhaps you're better off using Flatpak Heroic, that'll mask away most distro weirdness @潘达 (Panda)

genetic-orangeOP•2mo ago

i was able to get it working it was something wrong with steams pressure vessel which umu uses

Gaming

Programming

Is there a way to use system umu
