Hey everyone, I recently got Jedi Fallen Order for 75% off on steam. However, now that it’s installed, the game doesn’t launch, just shows the blue playing button and stops after a while. I’ve tried proton experimental and GE. I’ve also checked the files integrity using steam.
Any help with fixing this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Make sure to check ProtonDB for a game if you’re having problems. I think jsdz’s answer should work. For extra context,
SwGame-Win64-Shipping.exeis a DRM-free executable whereasstarwarsjedifallenorder.exehas Origin/EA DRM baked in. Setting your launch option to"path/to/SwGame/Binaries/Win64/SwGame-Win64-Shipping.exe" %command%like they report in ProtonDB should work.(There’s actually some tiny bits of DRM in
SwGame-Win64-Shipping.exebut they allow runtime even when they fail so it’s similar to DRM-free for practical purposes)Awesome, will try this out.
Also check PCGW as sometimes the issues actually exist on Windows too (and the same workarounds may apply).
When I played it the answer was to run “SwGame-Win64-Shipping.exe” instead of whatever stupid launcher it tries to load by default.
Yeah, I guess it’s origin launcher acting up.
If the order felled then the game won’t start. Gotta redo the order
Fair point, if the drm free approach doesn’t work I’ll give this a shot.
