Before you finish up in the properties screen, ensure that the “TARGET” and “START IN” fields start and end with a double quote (")

@irisshields 5 дней назад

For some reason when I copied the location the clipboard added "compatibility32", remove that as well, then it should work.

tried to use this method to run madden 23 on my steam deck but it is just stuck on the first in game loading screen

For anyone having issues starting the game after all this: if you see the clipboard added "compatibility32", remove that as well, then it should work.

Usually means it's an issue with forcing it to use proton, try a different proton version

Hi! Thanks for the video. I was able to download and install EA App, login and see my library fine. Tried different proton compatibility versions, 8.0, 7.6 etc but still did not work. How about Lutris? Any other known working method nowadays? Thanks.

@MagikarpPower 4 месяца назад

this is how I remember doing it. however, the ea desktop isnt found in the compatdata folder. i checked with protontricks as well that its the right folder. however, i can find it in wine... though it doesn't work. the install just gives me an exclamation point with a red triangle around it.

@thegamesapprentice 4 месяца назад

You could try finding it via the konsole. Just type in find / -type d -name "EA Desktop" or if that doesn't work sudo find / -type d -name "EA Desktop"

Try holding the steam button while inside the app. Then use the trackpad to move (mouse) and click.

Quick question Worked great on need for speed most wanted But then i try NFS rivals and it just gets stuck on the EA screen not loading the Game as if i have to do your above video for every EA game separately????? Please advice what I’m doing wrong Thought once I’ve completed your above video i could just get on and play all my EA NFS games???? Please help

@thegamesapprentice 16 дней назад

Games are always hit and miss with the Deck. Any with online capabilities is likely to have issues. Usually if it doesn't work, I'll add it into Steam and launch with a couple of different proton versions. If it still doesn't work, then I'll decide how desperate I am to play it on steam deck, and if I wanna search online for a solution.

@@thegamesapprentice wright ok Thank you for your reply A least i have some direction to go in now Thanks to you And a little more understanding of how the steam deck works under the hood so to speak Best Regards Ty

@thegamesapprentice 16 дней назад

As a general rule, if you've got the mindset of "X game probably won't work on Steam Deck", and then you're surprised when it does, you'll have a better experience with it

@J.Wick. 6 месяцев назад

This worked great for me a few months ago. Now the app needs an update. Im not quite sure how to go about doing that. Id imagine I have to delete my old EA install, DL again and do all this again? And likely any time theres an EA update in the future...Or rebuy everything on Steam lol. God I loathe other launchers. THE only real issue I have with the Steam Deck.

@thegamesapprentice 6 месяцев назад

Yea they're such a pain, I usually rebuy on Steam if they're on offer. I always forget I even own the game otherwise
