right, rebooting or running
wineserver -k would fix that

so dont worry

what wine are you using again
actually ill check your log
huh wine ge
stormy-goldOP•5mo ago
i didnt do anything at all

waiting may have been enough to do it
btw its reccomended nowadays you use proton-ge with umu on
idk if it will fix this but its worth a try
instead of wine-ge
if you dont want to / it still doesnt work send another log pls
stormy-goldOP•5mo ago
i dont think proton would work since my football manager is from epic

no proton-ge is reccomended for epic games too
in heroic
you can get it from heroics wine manager
stormy-goldOP•5mo ago
oh
stormy-goldOP•5mo ago
look what it says
stormy-goldOP•5mo ago
i think changing the operational system at configure wine may fix it

right but wine-ge defaults to windows 10
but check it if you like :)
stormy-goldOP•5mo ago
ok ok
it may be set to windows 7 for some weird reason
but i doubt it
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.its worth you doing this, but you can ignore the wineprefix steps
stormy-goldOP•5mo ago
last time i tried proton it was stucked on "launching"
i will try it again
alrighty
stormy-goldOP•5mo ago
actually i didnt renamed wineprefix
stormy-goldOP•5mo ago
this one, right?

you can skip that step
like i said
its just to keep a backup of your data
and since you havent gotten football manager to work yet
theres no data to back up
stormy-goldOP•5mo ago
want to see the log again?
that time, it recorded my "playtime"
so i think it opened, it barely opened
i mean, launched
uh
sure yeah send a new log
please
stormy-goldOP•5mo ago
oh
To help you, we need a game log. Please see the following images on how to get it.
conscious-sapphire•5mo ago

stormy-goldOP•5mo ago

stormy-goldOP•5mo ago

conscious-sapphire•5mo ago

stormy-goldOP•5mo ago

conscious-sapphire•5mo ago
hmm
stormy-goldOP•5mo ago

conscious-sapphire•5mo ago
stop the game then send the log again

stormy-goldOP•5mo ago

conscious-sapphire•5mo ago

i think its on by default
extended-salmon•5mo ago
umu requires proton-ge
using wine-ge does not enable umu

hes using that now
wait he isnt
extended-salmon•5mo ago
latest log doesnt say so
did you swap it back @itaro
i asked you to use proton-ge
extended-salmon•5mo ago
additionally careful with hopping prefixes, as dunuvo will lock you out of this game for 24 hrs
stormy-goldOP•5mo ago
i tried wine just once
its already at proton
extended-salmon•5mo ago
the last log was not proton

send a new log with proton then
stormy-goldOP•5mo ago
i tried wine once
hang on a sec
extended-salmon•5mo ago
all your logs are of wine-ge, which is outdated by more than a year (its no longer maintained)
-# > :L1::L2:https://discord.com/channels/812703221789097985/1399847948103323658/1399857873198121202 @Allora: all your logs are of wine-ge, which is outdated by...
not this one https://0x0.st/8RO2.log
but that one was weird
because it was sent before the game was quit
extended-salmon•5mo ago
ah didnt see it, but looks setup wrong
iirc this game works out of the box even with wine-ge ime
stormy-goldOP•5mo ago
i cant upload log file, but i can copy it
extended-salmon•5mo ago
upload the file
stormy-goldOP•5mo ago
failed to upload log file
extended-salmon•5mo ago
i mean upload the file to discord.
drag/drop
or via the +
stormy-goldOP•5mo ago
wait a sec
stormy-goldOP•5mo ago

is the exe running in the background like it was before
extended-salmon•5mo ago
ouch
GPU 0: Name: Intel Corporation integrated HD 3000 graphics controller on NP300E5C series laptop IDs: D=0116 V=8086 SD=c652 SV=144d Driver: i915this doesnt look like a full log
yeah
but this happened before too
stormy-goldOP•5mo ago
no
weird
uh
this is like, not a full log
stormy-goldOP•5mo ago
thinking of installing windows just to play this game
it seems easier lol
extended-salmon•5mo ago
your GPU probably couldnt run this in linux anyway
stormy-goldOP•5mo ago
you mean, in windows?
extended-salmon•5mo ago
i said linux
stormy-goldOP•5mo ago
i could run it in windows then?
possibly
extended-salmon•5mo ago
might run like crap though
its a bad gpu
stormy-goldOP•5mo ago
ikr
wait
lol
it launced
launched
nice!!
stormy-goldOP•5mo ago
i have no idea on how
perhaps you just had to wait
and it was slow because of your gpu
stormy-goldOP•5mo ago
wait 30 minutes?
hell no
but ye, maybe i just had to wait
extended-salmon•5mo ago
system is slow overall
its going to have a lot of trouble with this game
stormy-goldOP•5mo ago
indeed
extended-salmon•5mo ago
even in windows

no, but wait since you last launched it
stormy-goldOP•5mo ago
ok guys thanks
no worries
is it actually running decently?
stormy-goldOP•5mo ago
i'd say 20 fps lol
but i dont think its a game i would need smoothiness
fair enough
stormy-goldOP•5mo ago
its kind of a stactic game
you know
yeah makes sense
glad its working now
stormy-goldOP•5mo ago
trying to mark it as solved
done
