xcom2-launcher VS Playnite

If you're not using the Alternative Mod Launcher you should

Get Alternative Mod Launcher. https://github.com/X2CommunityCore/xcom2-launcher/wiki

It's weird that verifying files doesn't work. Try renaming the config folder in user/documents/my games/xcom/xcomwotc, when you launch the game it should regenerate the folder and maybe it'll run properly. Also, even if you don't use mods try the Alternative Mod Launcher, the 2k launcher is garbage.

I've never used the 2k launcher but I've heard from modders that it's so useless that sometimes it fails to even load the game, don't even think of loading mods with it. I don't know if this is your problem but you can try to use the Alternative Mod Launcher, of course you don't need to actually load any mods, just use it to launch the game, maybe that will work

You shouldn't be using the 2k launcher, use the AML instead, if it doesn't find the mods go into settings and add the folder to the list

Check this sub's wiki, at the bottom it shows you how to set up a local mods folder, then you should add that folder to AML, which you should be using for modded XCOM 2

Dude, the og launcher Is shit; you gotta use the AML if you wanna play X2 decently. AML stands for Alternative Mod Launcher, and it's an X2 launcher built by the community to make mod management easier (and since the various launcher updates, keep the game running as well...) You can find it here on GitHub: https://github.com/X2CommunityCore/xcom2-launcher

Download the Xcom Alternative Mod Launcher from here: https://github.com/X2CommunityCore/xcom2-launcher

Are you using the AML ? It will tell you if there is any conflicts, tho it can't show all the problems that your list might have

I've done something similar before with Playnite (an open-source PC game library manager), which has an HLTB plugin.

Playnite: The one with the most features and libraries available via addons and has a lot of options for customization. In my opinion the best one available for this purpose.

Here's a project for Playnite 11: https://github.com/JosefNemec/Playnite/milestone/9

As for my LGO, the only other app I've installed outside of the standard launcher was Playnite to consolidate all games into one place as Legion Space doesn't detect everything I have installed and I don't want to manage manually adding games to their launcher.

use playnite instead of the individual launchers.

Here is where I come in and recommend everyone check out Playnite: https://playnite.link/

When I care about supporting a developer or publisher and they offer their product on their own storefront DRM-free, I will often go there to buy. Or I buy from GoG which takes a smaller cut. Playnite lets me launch my Steam and non-Steam games in a seamless fashion. Steam still does a great job as a game installer/patch manager, and helps me discover new games. But I'm not locked into paying them a 30% fee, which is pretty brutal for some smaller publishers.

For anyone with any of the myriad of HDR monitors that prefers to leave desktop mode in SDR RGB, I just discovered that the excellent Playnite game launcher has a feature where you can enable HDR on a per-game basis. Simply tick the "Enable HDR support" option under "Advanced" tab for the settings of the games that you want HDR turned on for. I was previously using the now-abandoned AutoActions for this, so glad to see there's an alternative in a tool I already use.

Not exactly what you are looking for, but I've been using Playnite to launch everything on my computer for years.
