Can't install Alan Wake 2. Other games, even large ones, install fine
It just sits on 0 and never downloads anything. It creates an exe in the folder that is 0 bytes but that's it. It never goes beyond that
It's a large game, 96GB install, but I was able to get Borderlands 3 to start to install and it's 94
Rebooted and logged out/in multiple times. Was able to turn around and install to Windows without an issue.
Linux, Bazzite, btrfs partiton

I have the same issue, with the same game. This is on Nobara, Heroic v2.18.1
install.log is full of errors saying "no token for url"

403 is when the server rejects you. what country are you in? are you using a VPN?
national-gold•5w ago
i'm in Poland, no VPN is used
Downloading other games does work. It's just Alan Wake 2 that fails for some reason
adverse-sapphire•5w ago
it seems some games are affected, we are not sure whats going on
seems like Epic's services problem
national-gold•5w ago
huh, i'll try switching over to windows and trying their native client instead, maybe its their issue
adverse-sapphire•5w ago
I tested Risk of Rain 2 with their client - it also failed
national-gold•5w ago
huh, Alan Wake 2 seems to be working on the native client, going to test Heroic again real quick
nope, Heroic on Windows doesn't work
again, just Alan Wake 2 is failing. Tried "A Short Hike" and "Dead Island 2", they both do download

Just wanted to add my name in the hat as well. Just tried heroic for the first time, disappointed to learn that I could not download Alan Wake 2 after purchase:

one other much smaller game seemed to work fine
conscious-sapphire•4w ago
sounds more like you two have connection issues rather than a heroic problem? i've not had any issues downloading or playing aw2
(or downloading stuff from epic)
typical-coral•4w ago
something changed on epic's side like today or yesterday, there's people trying to figure out how to fix this reverse engeineering these new algorithms for downloads
conscious-sapphire•4w ago
weird because i tried it just now and its been fine?
typical-coral•4w ago
it looks like something that is being gradually rolled out
so it does not affect all games and all users yet
compatible-crimson•4w ago
At my side, on my steamdeck, it seems only broken with freshly buyed Epic games.
For example, i have Elite dangerous since years, install worked Fine (right now tested).
Ride 5 (yesterday) and alan wake remastered (1day before yesterday) Don‘t Download (get stuck at 0% Download).
national-gold•4w ago
that could be it? Alan Wake 2 was also freshly buyed for me
like-gold•4w ago
Same
adverse-sapphire•4w ago
Epic made a change that now requires signing urls to obtain files for the game
we are working on supporting it
not all games are affected, this is a staged rollout
genetic-orange•4w ago
I also freshly purchased AW2 and the DLC and I also cannot download it with Heroic. I tested other games (all bought/claimed free before today) and they downloaded just fine. I do have a Windows dual boot but I would like to play this on Linux. I'm using Fedore 42 KDE
national-gold•4w ago
I've worked around this for now by using the official Epic client to download the game, then importing the game files into Heroic
genetic-orange•4w ago
Thanks, I will try this myself
manual-pink•4w ago
Yeal i know im not helping but Alan wake 2 downled fione for me i had to install the C++ redistributables and enable the epic overlay but no issues. UK
like-gold•4w ago
Did you have the game purchased in the past few days or was it prior?
manual-pink•4w ago
Day 1
like-gold•4w ago
I think that is where the distinction is
adverse-sapphire•4w ago
purchase date doesn't matter
when did you download the game?
manual-pink•4w ago
Silly question , but I will check file system is EXT 4?
When the game first got released so quite a while ago now, I alos thinking about it managed to screw it up and several month ago uninstalled and reinstalled meaning i downloaded it again no issues
the log file suggest that permission has been lost to epic you know?
you might try logging in again or clearing the cache i dunno
like-gold•4w ago
Yeah, you are probably right. Just tried a different game that I just added to my library and it downloaded fine
manual-pink•4w ago
might have chaced soemthing you know , ts got corrupt and its trying the same piece again , clearting cache may help , i dont know but it might
like-gold•4w ago
Cleared cache, but no change in behavior 🙁
equal-aqua•4w ago
oh so I have to wait untill I can play AW2 on linux?
adverse-sapphire•4w ago
yes stay tuned
we should have something next week
equal-aqua•4w ago
absolutely no problem, I'll be patient. thank you guys for the great work ❤️
manual-pink•4w ago
yeah hang on in there its worth the wait 🙂
typical-coral•4w ago
you can still download it using the official Epic Games Launcher (either installed into Heroic or with Lutris) and then import the game in heroic, that should work
like-gold•4w ago
As long as I can uninstall epic after that 🤮
equal-aqua•4w ago
should I import it via "Add Game" or just by putting the Alan Wake 2 folder into the installation path then hitten install?
adverse-sapphire•4w ago
when you press install on epic game
you can press import in the modal
Hello folks, we might have a fix for this (some brief tests show it to be working): https://github.com/Heroic-Games-Launcher/legendary/pull/23
To use this version of Legendary in Heroic, do the following:
1. Download the archive for your operating system from here and extract it
2. On Linux/macOS: Mark the extracted binary as being executable (KDE's Dolphin has an option for this in the file properties)
3. On Steam Deck / Flatpak: Move the binary to
~/Games/Heroic/
4. In Heroic, open "Settings" (sidebar) -> "Advanced" and set the path at "Choose an alternative Legendary binary"
After that, just try to install the offending game in Heroic againlike-gold•4w ago
@CommandMC I followed your instructions but it "appears" to be still stuck at 0%? The log looks very different now though

Could you send in the full log? I'd expect there to be some error messages at the start

cache usage keeps going up, but nothing else.
Hm, seems like Windows-specific issues maybe? I'll boot up a VM... tomorrow
like-gold•4w ago
ok, thank you for looking into this!
should I try a cache clear just for giggles?
Oh nope, my mistake actually, forgot to pass a variable
Just a moment, re-building artifacts, will update the link above once it's done
Edit: Updated, please re-test once you're able to
