GOG Robocop: Rogue City fails to launch (Arch Linux)
No window, no fullscreen environment, bombs out immediately upon reaching "playing" state.
System, HGL, & game all updated to latest, I have the latest Wine dependencies for my system.
I've tried various Proton/Wine (deleting the prefix folder in between each attempt): GE-Proton latest, 10-17, 9-27, 8-24 & Wine-GE latest, Proton8-26, Proton8-4, wine-10.16 (staging), all with "auto install/update dxvk" enabled & vcrun2022 installed via winetricks, wine versions with "auto install/update dxvk-nvapi" enabled & vkd3d installed via winetricks. I even tried setting the Windows version to win10. No dice. Should note that I've successfully run Witcher 3, Jedi Survivor, Batman Arkham seris & other AAA titles @ 1440p with very high settings, rarely have issues (thanks HGL 👍 ).
Verbose logs enabled & game launched using reportedly working version Wine-GE-Proton8-26, "upload log file" failed so I attached here.
Any troubleshooting help appreciated.

yes, I deleted the prefix folder between each attempt.

Brother wine ge log doesnt matter here
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.xenial-black•4w ago
What you posted is that

yes, I tried Wine-GE-Proton8-26 (among the others lsited) as that was reported as working for this title in HGL, I'll post the proton-latest log (prefix nuked, vcrun2022 installed, auto install/update dxvk)

ge-proton-latest log (after nuke & install vcrun2022)
adverse-sapphireOP•4w ago
Ge-Proton-latest works for nearly all the games I play in HGL, Robocop: Rogue City seems probematic, didn't launch using any of the proton/wine version I listed in OP.

Get rid of this
Your log has simply nothing in it
adverse-sapphireOP•4w ago
yes, I was hoping for more info to go on in logs
any other ideas? I'm usually pretty good at resolving HGL issues myself but this time I'm stumped..
