Importing game files

After the initial launcher setup, you can point it to an already existing game install by editing the config.json file you can find in the launcher folder.

  • Open the launcher folder from the three lines button in the top right
  • Close the launcher
  • Open the config.json file in a file editor
  • Change the game path to your already existing one

Notice for Flatpak users: if the launcher does not find the game, make sure it has access to your folder using Flatseal.

An example for the global game files is:

"game": {
    "path": {
      "global": "/mnt/HDD/Games/HSR",
      ...
    },
    ...
}

Then finally, generate a .version file in the game directory so that the launcher can pick up the game, with the current version (e.g. 3.6.0):

cd /path/to/game/files
printf '\x03\x06\x00' > .version

Failed to find game diff

Refer to the .version example above.

Black screen on launch

That usually means that DXVK isn't installed or failed to install. Solutions are to either:

  • Update to latest launchers that include a DXVK check
  • Switching DXVK versions in components manually
