If you're having issue with launching games on the SteamDeck after the new update, try enabling the Steam Shader Pre-Cache on the Steam Settings or disabling UMU on the Game Settings > Advanced when using Proton-GE as workarounds.
We are looking into it.

@trinux yes!
Glad you liked it 😊

@RandamuMaki @imLinguin

Yes, totally. We don't disagree with what you said, actually we 100% agree.
That is why we decided to index the support forum so people won't need to go to Discord to search for answers. We are also using Reddit (not ideal as well) and for sure might look into other ways of giving support to people.

Our discord is quite old and at that time they were not agressive as today. But we agree discord is getting worse with time.

We have integrated Answersflow to our Discord so it will be easier to find answers and support.

All users posts are Anonymized so only the content of it is indexed.

@szkodnix thanks!

HI!

We just released a a new Heroic version with a few fixes (some critical) and some UX improvements.

https://github.com/Heroic-Games-Launcher/HeroicGamesLauncher/releases/tag/v2.16.1

We are working on a way to make new users understand the main Heroic features and we decided to try some guided tours around the app.

What do you folks think of this?
Is this useful?

@Wootang check again, it should be available now.

@Wootang We need to wait for Flathub to publish it. We already did our part but it can take a few hours to appear on discover.

There were some issues with AUR publishing but they should be fixed now.

@heroiclauncher es un lanzador de videojuegos para diferentes tiendas como Epic o GOG que ha ido ganando popularidad por lo bien que hace las cosas.

Acaba de actualizar a la versión 2.16 con muchísimos arreglos para mejorar la experiencia con tus juegos:

Una novedad importante en Linux/SteamOs es que a partir de ahora usará por defecto Unified Launcher (UMU) para los juegos que usen Proton:

Gotta hand it to the Fediverse, people made their own Starter Pack thing (like Bluesky).

So obviously I'm jumping in to help you find people to follow.

My first pack is Gaming News: https://fedidevs.com/s/MjI3/

Feel free to reply here for suggested accounts for me to add to it. But please don't suggest completely random communities and people. It's for account posting proper gaming news.

Boosts appreciated.
