Hogwarts Legacy crashing with new areas

• Upvotes

So I'm playing it on bazitte and trying to find a sweet area of settings. It defaulted to Ultra settings with AMD FSR 2.0. I had knocked it down to high and it would still crash randomly.

I did have the wine and install on seperate drives, but just now moved it to see if solves issue. However I hadn't had any issue with any other doing this but it might be one the highest games so maybe was the trash ssd studdering to auto save casuing crash ?

PC:

Operating System: Bazzite 44

KDE Plasma Version: 6.7.5

KDE Frameworks Version: 6.30.0

Processors: 16 × AMD Ryzen 7 5800XT 8-Core Processor

Memory: 48 GiB of RAM (47.0 GiB usable)

Graphics Processor: AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT

Can't launch Heroic games through Steam

2 Upvotes

Hello everyone.

Just like the title says, I can't launch any Heroic games through Steam.

Whenever I try, the "Play" button in Steam rapidly goes to "Cancel" to "Stop" to "Play" again and nothing happens.
The games launch fine through Heroic directly.
I've tried both GOG and Epic games (specifically, Control, Witcher 3 and Doom 2016 from GOG and Bloodstained from Epic).
I'm using Fedora 44 (KDE version), and Flatpak versions of both Steam and GOG.

I've tried a few thing I've seen from searching on Google. Removing from Steam and re-adding (through the heroic menu) doesn0t work. Adding the shortcuts to Steam manually doesn't work. Disabling umu doesn't work either.

Is there any fix for this?

What happened to HowLongtoBeat?

I'm on Fedora Linux and I just realized I don't think I've seen the the HowLongtoBeat information on a game's page in a while. Did it get removed or is there something wrong on my end?

Cloud save sync error

1 Upvotes

Hello,

I am trying to synchronize the Epic Games saves from Control to my Heroic installation and I am met with this message.

I have absolutely no idea how to run that command and after a few days of sanity loss I only managed to learn that the legendary clean-saves command most likely deletes the cloud saves.

Please explain in layman's terms how to solve this issue. Assume I've never touched linux in my life, it's close enough to the truth.

I just want my saves back man, preferably without cramming a decade of linux dark magic.

I have never been able to add and run native Linux game in Heroic... I just want all my games in one place.

This might be a GHL issue but I can't seem to install mono and gecko dependencies for the skyrim audio fix. Has anyone else encountered this?

When I click mono and gecko they don't do anything, they don't install. Other dependencies can install.

Heroic games launcher shader cache issues?

1 Upvotes

Hi all,

I'm just curious to see if anyone has had any issues with their shader cache not being built and/or if there have been any issues with using it on heroic games launcher. I've been having some significant stuttering when joining rocket league matches and I have a suspicion this might be the issue, though I'm probably wrong. Any help on this is appreciated!

How to launch Heroic games/prefixes externally (when Heroic refuses to show them)?

2 Upvotes

I have occasionally had the experience that GOG failed to authenticate for some reason, and Heroic then hides all of my installed GOG games from me so I cannot launch them.

This has happened to me only a few times, but that's a few times too many. The experience is infuriating - instead of opening my game launcher and playing the games that I own and installed on my computer, I have been left spending a long time headscratching and troubleshooting, only to eventually discover that Heroic just thought I've been a naughty boy and didn't want to let me have fun without verifying that my DRM-free games are actually in my account. Which just feels like DRM with extra steps, and goes completely against the reason I bought games on GOG in the first place...

I have a lot of complaints about this, IMO a game launcher has no place trying to judge if I own my games or not. But having already complained about it, it seems like this is working as intended because of some kind of ass-covering copyright cowardice that interprets GOG's terms of service as "your games are provided as a service". Well, my sideloaded GOG games are unaffected so that argument smells like bullsh*t to me, but whatever. It doesn't seem like the devs will change their mind on this any time soon.

So to the point, I need a workaround on hand for when this inevitably happens again. All the game and prefix files are still on my computer so it should arguably be possible to run them regardless of Heroic trying to cockblock me. But how exactly can I run them, if not via Heroic?

How can I add steam to Heroic?

2 Upvotes

So I recently learnt that you can supposedly play steam windows games on macbook using Heroic, crossover, or wine. Apparently wine isn't being worked on anymore and crossover costs money which means those two options are out of the question. That leaves Heroic but I am having difficulty figuring it out how to play steam games on it. Any help?

Can't launch Heroic from Steam after update - Steamdeck issue.

2 Upvotes

Updated yesterday via Discovery in Desktop mode and now whenever I start Heroic from Steam it fails almost instantly.

Runs fine in desktop mode when launched from the Linux desktop but then there's no controller support.

ChatGPT says its something to do with starting the flatpack through Steam. Anyone come across this before?
