Help us avoiding launcher issues, by following @CCP_Bartender and @Renard_DuGaulle recommendation to test the Beta EVE Launcher in advance. You can do this in the Launcher at the cogwheel in the Tools/Cache section. Set Version Type to “Beta”. Please document your test results in this threat below. ---

Launcher Version 1923964 has a little hiccup-up on start, but it is working. When starting it I shows an “_Error: Couldn’t establish GUI version._” message, but after a second it recovers and works as expected. ---

Good idea to spin up a thread for this–I’ll post any issues I run into here as well. I got the same error, but upon clicking retry it worked fine for me as well. ---

Sorry, but I mean, does it affect the regular launcher if I go into the beta launcher? If I have troubles with the beta launcher… can I still go back to the regular launcher I had prior to the change? ---

Ah yes, I tried this for Lutris, but it didnt work. Everytime it updates Im forced to make a new installation with the latest Lutris installer that can do dxvk and esync, and that is provided by Lutris or part of the GUI. I havent tried backing up the Linux launcher, but I already have older evelauncher folders that I could use, if it breaks. ---

Someone know if there was a new beta update in these days? I was able to play the game with no problem with protonGE 6.16 until today. I had the beta option activated so i think that this happens because of a new beta version being tested i guess. ---
