EmuDeck VS EpicLinux

You could look up their Cheat Sheet so you know what BIOS you'll need

Check the Emudeck wiki cheatsheet

INSTALLATION: To install this software go to dragoonDorise/EmuDeck: Emulator configurator for Steam Deck (github.com) or EmuDeck - Emulators on Steam Deck, SteamOS , Rog Ally and Windows to download the software. If it downloads to the downloads folder, make sure you move it to the desktop in order to run it. When it runs it may ask for a sudo password and if not then just follow the on-screen instructions it's pretty simplified so no need for additional walkthrough.

My thoughts after reading your post: 1- Go to steam desktop mode and reinstall emudeck. It will take a few minutes and you will be sure that installation is ok. 2- You can find the extension of the roms that can be read by Emulation Station in this post: https://github.com/dragoonDorise/EmuDeck as a rule of thumb older games can be left zipped while newer need to be unzipped. Good to check in any case. 3- You can follow another tutorial, but the one of retro game corps is the one I followed and it worked... Please, let us know how it goes.

Download this, https://github.com/dragoonDorise/EmuDeck and when you install it, it’ll give you a button to sign up for the patreon.

Emudeck Cheatsheet explains which systems need bios, what the file should be named, and where to put it.

I downloaded VC_redist.x64 from the following: https://github.com/CommandMC/EpicLinux/wiki/Train-Sim-World-2

Here’s a wiki that might help getting some games running (link)[https://github.com/CommandMC/EpicLinux]

there are some games in my experience, which are not working at all with dxvk enabled, for example Into The Breach : https://github.com/CommandMC/EpicLinux/wiki/Into-the-Breach Epic windows version - i have no idea why, but its working well in prefix without dxvk. I had some other examples, but dont remember now which ones exactly...

I tried to install Gta 5 through the heroic games launcher, by following this tutorial.

One of the developers has a wiki with known workarounds for Heroic https://github.com/CommandMC/EpicLinux/wiki/

I don’t know what POD is. 20XX requires d3dcompiler_47 from here extracted into the prefix’s drive_c/windows/ folder. You only need to extract the zip and overwrite the two files.

Basically you need to download the vc redist exe. I got mine from here https://github.com/CommandMC/EpicLinux/wiki/Train-Sim-World-2 than in the heroic launcher settings for the game scroll to the bottom of the wine settings and you should see "run exe on prefix" drag and drop the exe file or click on the box and open the exe file from its location. Then you setup it up like Normal. Also I used proton 7.0 under the wine version when I played. If you are having problems with dx12 not available try checking off "auto install/update dxvk at the top of the checklist
