Red Dead Redemption 2 not working on Steam Deck – Social Club Error 18
🐧linux🎮steam-deck
Hi everyone. I’m facing the following issue.
I installed Red Dead Redemption 2 on Steam Deck through Heroic and selected the latest Proton version.
On the first launch, the game installed Rockstar Games Launcher successfully. I logged in without any issues. After that, the game starts, shows the logo and copyright screens, and then crashes with a Social Club error (Error 18), asking me to close the game.
I checked the official GitHub guide and found the RDR2 section here:
https://github.com/Heroic-Games-Launcher/HeroicGamesLauncher/wiki/Rockstar-Games-from-Epic-Games
If I add the launch command
WINEDLLOVERRIDES=vulkan-1=n,b
it does not change anything.
If I edit the system.xml file and change "Vulkan" to "DX12", then Rockstar Games Launcher shows the error:
"Red Dead Redemption 2 exited unexpectedly"
and the game no longer launches at all.
Does anyone know the currently working method to run this game?
Thanks in advance
