[Discussion] Epic (so they says) Game Launcher on the Deck

Steam Deck@sopuli.xyzEnglish • 7 months ago

I’ve just installed Epic Game Launcher on the Deck and had an issue where the starting screen was black. I’ve already find the fix in * this discussion.

Here’s the copy of the post

I found something that seems to work. In the 3rd party launcher in Steam used for the Epic game launcher, go to Properties->Shortcut->Target, and change the text to:

“{The path to the epic game launcher}/EpicGamesLauncher.exe” -opengl

A month or two ago. I saw notes in changelog that supposedly it should be fixed, but it kept happening. I might revisit in the future
