 Brisingr | Anyone here play Ghost Recon Breakpoint? It refuses to launch for me. It requires Ubisoft Connect, which I have installed. When I click 'Play' it just loads for a short while and closes on its own. No other window opens. I have verified the files and also done a reinstall. | 10:01:22 |
 hustlerone | i have played in the past and it works, do you have protontricks installed perchance? | 10:03:45 |
| Brisingr | Yes, that's how I installed Ubisoft Connect. | 10:06:49 |
| hustlerone | yeah no you messed up | 10:07:17 |
| Brisingr | Oh | 10:07:24 |
| hustlerone | override proton version on breakpoint | 10:07:36 |
| Brisingr | I've set it to Proton Experimental. | 10:08:06 |
| hustlerone | if i recall correctly you shouldn't need protontricks for breakpoint unless ubifart broke everything | 10:09:52 |
| Brisingr | From what I've read, Ubisoft Connect is necessary, otherwise an error comes up about needing Uplay. Protontricks seems to be one way to install it. I have also tried using the method shared by users on ProtonDB, which is set the following as the launch command for the first launch:
echo "%command%" | sed 's/GRB_vulkan.exe/UbisoftConnectInstaller.exe/' | sh | 10:15:37 |
| Brisingr | Installs the launcher as well, but the game still doesn't launch. | 10:16:27 |
| Brisingr | Maybe I've misunderstood the instructions... | 10:16:49 |
| Brisingr | * Installs the launcher as well, but the game still doesn't launch (I did remove the launch command later). | 10:17:31 |
| Brisingr | Perhaps I should try the Steam Flatpak. | 10:18:10 |

| hustlerone | afaik all you need to do is run UB connect inside the prefix | 10:22:37 |
| hustlerone | no need to be fancy | 10:22:42 |
| Brisingr | I see. | 10:37:23 |
| hustlerone | well the installer | 10:37:43 |
| Brisingr | Yes I've tried that. It does get installed. But when I click the PLAY button, it turns into the blue STOP button for a short while, and displays the PLAY button again. | 11:00:16 |
| Brisingr | No error is displayed, no other window is shown. Based on the vids I've seen, the Ubisoft Connect window is supposed to show, asking to sign in. | 11:01:37 |
| hustlerone | try running it with protontricks and sign in? | 11:08:11 |
| Brisingr | As in, run the installed Ubisoft Launcher executable using Protontricks? Tried that as well. Ubisoft Connect does not show up. Only the Protontricks window is displayed again. | 11:37:32 |
 Atemu | What if you run the installer again via protontricks? | 13:34:10 |
| Atemu | That's how I did it with TrackMania Turbo which ships an ancient Uplay that does not work. | 13:35:12 |
| Atemu | * | 13:35:27 |
 niklaskorz | do you have ntsync enabled? because that is currently incompatible with the ubisoft launcher | 13:36:35 |
| Brisingr | Will try that when I'm at my PC. | 13:39:22 |
