I made a git hub issue, but I want to ask here as well in hope of finding success

After running heroic in the terminal, the following thing catchs my eye: The terminal hangs at either

[Backend]: Running Wine command: wineboot --init or [Legendary]: Using cached install info or ERROR:gl_surface_presentation_helper.cc(260)] GetVSyncParametersIfAvailable() failed for 1 -and 2 & 3- times!

sometimes I get a notification to install mono when switching WINE versions (WINE-GE).

Somewhere along the loading process a “wineboot.exe” blank windows appears depending on the wine version (heppens with proton) and stays for a while. I am using Wine-GE

Things I tried:

-Deleting the “Games” folder in my home folder - Only heroic used it anyway.

-Adding the game to steam through Heroic’s “Add to steam” button.

-Reinstalling heroic and all of its dependencies.

-Manually adding the game’s EXE to steam and forcing a Proton version.

-Launching the game by double clicking it in my file manager Nemo.

Surprisingly, only the last two things succeeded in running the game properly.

Terminal output after a successful run:

(Excuse my inability to use a code block on this)

Update: I found a repo for fedora on their github page, downloaded it and games started working fine.

    Listing which games you’re having issues with would be helpful. Also check ProtonDB for each game as there are lots of great comments and fixes there.

      All 4 games that I have installed, and they used to work fine but then I switched from Debian 11 to Fedora 38 and this issue started.

      Somewhere along the loading process a “wineboot.exe” blank windows appears depending on the wine version (Happens with Proton) and stays for a while. (I will add this to the post)

        I’ve seen lots of issues mentioned with F38 and gaming for some reason. Maybe try Lutris as well so you can quickly switch wine profiles and try different things out. I believe Heroic also let’s you debug with different profiles as well.

          As a TF2 player, I agree.
