Hi,
Any game with this error doesn't work and will not work sorry. I don't remember exactly why but I think it has something to do with being 32bit.

Okay thanks. I appreciate the help. At least I know it wasn't I was doing something wrong.

Okay so I managed to mess up my Tekken 8 again by using Proton Experimental instead of a stable version in STL. After I did that the STL nor the game would launch. So that kinda confirms that using Proton Experimental with STL could be causing your issue.
It took me a while to find out how to change it. Go to dolphin. Click on the 3 lines on the top right corner right under the exit sign. Click on that and make sure you have "Show hidden files enabled" checked. Then go to Home>.config>steamtinkerlaunch>gamecfgs>id and look for your games steam ID. Scroll to line 26 or whichever says "USEPROTON=" and switch that to "GE-Proton8-25" or whichever one you got installed. Hopefully that gets you to be able to see STL again.

Could you show us how to do this step by step using images or video?

I have tried adding specific games to desktop from Heroic Launcher but this doesn't work.

HGL cannot be launched with aurora.

I can't add aurora as a version of wine/proton in HGL.

Hello, i'm new to the deck, i've followed the guide and installed aurora with the tool.
Aurora start when i launch the game but the trainer don't activate and i can't activate manually, it's like when i'm in the window of the trainer the screen is stuck. I've tried to use multiple versions of proton, update to steamos 3.6 and then switched back but nothing changed

Hi,

Is there a way to use stand-alone trainers when they're not available through Aurora ?

I downloaded the Valkyria Chornicle trainer from here, added the folder to Aurora, but I can't seem to find it when I launch the game with Aurora. Am I doing something wrong or is it simply impossible to do on the Steam Deck ?
