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).
