How the heck do I get gamescope working with Heroic Games Launcher? - eviltoast

This is one is very confusing, which probably speaks to the current UI in Heroic. I just want to say, run this game in gamescope, so I can use HDR.

I have the latest version of Heroic, installed via Flatpak as the devs recommend. If I go to configure the game in the UI it has an entire settings page dedicated to Gamescope but nothing that says “enable gamescope”.

Anyone get this working?

    What GPU you are running? If it’s not a recent AMD gpu, that might be the cause. Relatively recent Mesa and kernel would be a good idea too. The flatpak situation could complicate that too, as others have mentioned.

    Monitors/displays can sometimes be temperamental too, and require toggling on/off, switching VTs back and forth, etc.

    Beyond that, I’d try installing standard Steam if possible.

      GPU is Radeon 7900xtx, so pretty new.

      I may switch back to distro Steam. I was trying to get as much Flatpaked as possible but getting HDR working is more important to me.
