Hello, I have been using steam to run a pirated version of elden ring on my linux desktop. This works fine but now i wanna move to heroic launcher instead of steam. The game launches but i dont have any progress in the game. I think it has something todo with wineprefix but i have no clue how to solve this.

Does someone know how i can solve this? Thanks for your time!

Never touched heroic launcher so can’t really help you there. Normally I just use Lutris, works without fail every time.

Can you change the runner in heroic launcher? Like proton instead of wine?

Yes i can, when changing it from wine staging to proton it doesn’t launch while it does launch on steam using proton. I have set the wine prefix to ~/.steam/root/steamapps/compatdata/783770/pfx where 78… is the game id i think.
