Description
I am on Ubuntu, I just did a clean reinstall on a PC. I was able to play on Ubuntu-Steam EU4, Stellaris, HOI4 and Cities Skylines, so the specs are more than ok. I suspect the problem might come from the fact that Steam installed itself in HOME/snap/steam/ while the Paradox games and the ParadoxLauncher are still installed in .local/share/Paradox Interactive. Somehow the handshake between Steam and the ParadoxLauncher does not work. There is no crash log, but I attach the Player log. I am able to start EU4, Stellaris and HOI4 by calling the executables directly (bypassing Steam and the ParadoxLauncher) but for CitiesSkylines this does not work. Only ONCE I was able to run Cities Skylines from the Steam library after I forced it to use Proton 7.0-6 but after restarting Steam that did not work anymore. Somehow forcing the downgrade change something and closed the handshake but did not survive a restart. I was able to prove that CitiesSkylines can properly work though, so there is no hardware or compatibility issue.Tags
