No RL installation detected

[zcharo99]

When I launch Rocket League from Heroic Games and then running BakkesMod.exe as said in the tutorial, I disable safe mode and I get: No RL installation detected

Command used to launch:
WINEPREFIX="/home/giulixx/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/default/Rocket League" "/home/giulixx/.var/app/com.heroicgameslauncher.hgl/config/heroic/tools/wine/Wine-GE-latest/bin/wine" "/home/giulixx/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/default/Rocket League/drive_c/Program Files/BakkesMod/BakkesMod.exe"

Hmmm I'm not really sure what could be the problem.
I don't use Heroic but I'll give it a try when I have some free time.

[zcharo99]

Okay.
Oh and also I tried using every derivate of wine or proton (and the original ones) but they seem to still not work.

It seems from the path that you're probably using a Flatpak version of Heroic? If that's the case it may be that the sandboxing that Flatpak does prevents the BakkesMod process to see into the sandbox to inject into Rocket League? I'm not sure why.

[CrumblyLiquid]

I found this Reddit post and also this comment on the original BakkesMod Linux issue that mentions simmilar or the same problem that you're having.

After a bit of digging I found the flatpak enter command that could maybe work.
The downside is that it has to be run as root. More info in the docs and on this StackExchange question

I don't have either Steam or Heroic in the Flatpak version to test. That's something I might try when I have more time.

[zcharo99]

But I don't have the flatpak version of Heroic or Steam

While searching for a reason I can no longer get BakkesMod to inject on FreeBSD, I came across this issue. Here is how I get BakkesMod to be happy which I found by looking at the code for BakkesMod. See https://github.com/bakkesmodorg/BakkesModInjectorCpp/blob/master/BakkesModInjectorC%2B%2B/BakkesModInstallation.cpp#L507

This is part of the script I run to start bakkesmod. You may need to tweak it for Heroic Games.

dot_config=${WINEPREFIX}/drive_c/users/${USER}/.config
mkdir -p ${dot_config}
if [ ! -L ${dot_config}/legendary ]
then
	(cd ${dot_config} && ln -sf ${HOME}/.config/legendary .)
fi

There is no legendary file or directory in my .config/ directory. What is that file anyway?

i dont even use linux anymore 😭

[AndrejPatak]

Damn, what did you switch to? Windows or Mac?

Sorry about that. I use Legendary directly to launch games. Heroic uses it under the covers to launch games from the Epic Games Store. ~/.config/legendary is the directory for Legendary's configuration. I think Heroic just has it located elsewhere under its own config directory, but I do not know for certain. Hopefully, my script can help with RL.

BTW, BakkesMod will complain about not being able to inject and ask to download a vcrun* to fix it. I just tell it No because BakkesMod is actually successful. Something is confused under the covers.

I have the same issue as the original issue, i am using a flatpak version of heroic, but i will try a different one. Maybe it will work, i'll update here

[Tikaanyrl]

Works now, just have to launch rl and immediatly launch bakkesmod, otherwise the same error persists

How did you do this? If I launch rocket league, heroic doesn't let me launch exes on that prefix. If I launch an exe first, heroic won't actually start rocket league until the exe closes

[Tikaanyrl]

WINEFSYNC=1 WINEPREFIX="/home/tikaany/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/default/Rocket League" "/home/tikaany/.config/heroic/tools/wine/Wine-GE-Proton8-26/bin/wine64" "/home/tikaany/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/default/Rocket League/drive_c/Program Files/BakkesMod/BakkesMod.exe"
this is the command i'm running (in a bash script to make it easier, but shouldnt change anything), sorry for the late response, was kinda busy

[Dsummers91]

Ii resolved it on my end by adding rocketleague.item file in the Manifests
for your case

cd "/home/tikaany/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/default/Rocket League"
mkdir -p Epic/EpicGamesLauncher/Data/Manifests
cd $_

then add rocketleague.item file with this

{
    "LaunchExecutable": "Binaries/Win64/RocketLeague.exe",
    "AppVersionString": "BC2_Update53+468477"
}

(I chose the App version by clicking Help>Show Version Info on bakkedmod menu)

then start rocketleague first, then bakkesmod and it should work
