I updated to version 2.14.0 yesterday and now games won't launch if MangoHud is enabled, but no error message is shown (like the one were MangoHud isn't on PATH).
I am on arch but I've had the same problem, on both heroic and lutris as well, whenever I set mangoHud to run when I start a game, the game doesn't launch or immediatly closes after launching, I have found two solutions that seems to work for me, either I download from the arch user repository or I install from their github release: https://github.com/flightlessmango/MangoHud?tab=readme-ov-file#github-releases, there is also the option of building from source: https://github.com/flightlessmango/MangoHud?tab=readme-ov-file#installation---build-from-source, but downloading and installing from the github page should fix things for you, also don't forget to remove mangoHud before reinstalling.
I built and installed it from source (using the script) but it did not work for me as I now get the error Mangohud is enabled, but "mangohud" executable could not be found on $PATH
. I might've done something wrong as I often do though.
Is there any way to add the .deb mangohud the the Heroic Launcher $PATH so as not to have to use the flatpak version of mangohud ?
Yes, you can do easily, this may be different for you but the command is something like this: 1- Go to the directory where the mangoHud excecutable is. 2- Run the following command ( replace the path with where the deb file is)
export PATH=$PATH:/path/to/mangohud/directory
3- Run mangoHud from heroic. 4- You will then have to make it permanent by adding the command to your shell's configuration file. (~/.bashrc on ubuntu according to this: https://effective-shell.com/part-5-building-your-toolkit/configuring-the-shell/)
Although when I had the error, it was due to a conflict of files, I installed mangoHud from the offcial repository and from flatpack (and from God knows where else lol), the only solution might be to purge mangoHud from your system before trying to installing it again, from their github.
Well it seems that the problem came from me using proton experimental. Mangohud apparently doens't work when using anything other than wine-ge. I thought it worked fine in the past, but I must've been wrong. Would be great if it did though !
I'm glad you were able to find a solution, happy gaming!
Me too, thanks for your help !
Describe the bug
Even though the mangohud option is enabled and the right version of mangohud is installed as a flatpak, nothing shows up in any game. It works well on Bottles so I think it's not a MangoHud problem.
