Asking for help or advice on this.

I grabbed this online in the Steam sale having played the first one years ago and tried installing it without realizing it required that damnable Rockstar Launcher.

After a couple days of trial and error of reading different help sites I got the launcher working on my Deck

However once it is up and running when I do a search on my Deck it cannot find the install files which are on my SD drive.

I’ve tried to make multiple links to the SD folder back to various other folders to assist to launcher in it’s search but nothing is helping. The second I hit the button to scan for Rockstar Games it gives me a big ‘FU!’ that there is none found. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Has anyone else ran into this and what was the solution - it’s driving me nuts? Am welcoming any and all advice at this point.

Hopefully you searched protondb when it happened. If not here is the link , I always check my games before playing to see if any or what tweaks I need to get the game to play https://www.protondb.com/app/1174180?device=steamDeck the answer you seek is there my friend. Best of luck and enjoy the game!

Thanks OP!

I did not try that site but searching it solved my problem.

It also had some good info about settings so I went ahead and made some tweaks for the graphics but may go ahead and play a little first and see if I notice anything there.

Thank you again.
