Wolfenstein: The Old Blood not launching heroic 2.17.2 (NixOS)

I am also not able to start the game in verbose log mode, I don't have the option (image1) what is happening: After setting the launcher to proton ge latest and pressing play now, I button changes from launching to playing then back to play without the game launching. LOG(dunno if it's useful) https://0x0.st/8R5F.log Thank you for your help!

Solution:
Simply delete the prefix and try again if you tried with system wine before

https://0x0.st/8RRZ.log with verbose I believe this is the stinker:
ProtonFixes[47411] WARN: [CONFIG]: Parent directory "/home/matan/.config/protonfixes" does not exist. Abort.
ProtonFixes[47411] WARN: [CONFIG]: Parent directory "/home/matan/.config/protonfixes" does not exist. Abort.
how fix?

That's just a warning.
wine: '/home/matan/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/default/Wolfenstein The Old Blood/pfx' is a 32-bit installation, it cannot support 64-bit applications.

I think that's the problem. No idea how that could have happened. BTW, if you want to game on NixOS, you should use the nixos-unstable channel.

Usually don't need what?

the unstable branch
metropolitan-bronze
metropolitan-bronze•2mo ago
Well it does mean you have to wait for major fixes that won't be backported to the stable channel. For example, https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/428815

Proton doesnt support 32 bit prefixes nor creates them

The umu package in nixpkgs was more than a bit broken. So where on earth did this 32-bit prefix come from?

hmm... recommendations? I dunno how to fix this

winePrefix": "/home/matan/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/default/Wolfenstein The Old Blood"
I wonder if you tried with system wine first etc

security fixes, for example, go into master but also get cherry-picked to the stable channel
harsh-harlequin
harsh-harlequinOP•2mo ago
should I?

Anyway, I guess the next step would be to delete the prefix?

hmm.. interesting ok is there a standard way to do this or do I delete the directory or?
metropolitan-bronze
metropolitan-bronze•2mo ago
it's just a directory, so rm -r /path/to/prefix/
fascinating-indigo
fascinating-indigo•2mo ago
You just delete winePrefix": "/home/matan/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/default/Wolfenstein The Old Blood" This wolfenstein old blood prefix dir

Even though I run a full DE (Plasma), I still mostly use the terminal.

Wouldnt expect less from nixos user
harsh-harlequin
harsh-harlequinOP•2mo ago

fascinating-indigo
fascinating-indigo•2mo ago

even on native windows, some games throw a hissy fit if you alt-tab away, too.
