Describe the bug

• Ghostrunner only has one launch option (DirectX 12) in the local menu which can't be unselected
• when launched with CrossOver and D3DMetal (which supports DirectX 12), an error alert says my setup doesn't support DirectX 12 games and the game quits
• the game runs fine with the Steam version and CrossOver

Could you provide more context like game log or details as to where the game was bought

[nonoche2]

my apologies, the game was baught on the Epic Games Store.

When I install it without touching the launch options menu, the game runs fine. But if I click on the launch options menu, only "Ghostrunner DirectX 12" is available (Steam version offers an additional DirectX 11 launch option). If I select that, then the game fails to launch from then on, and I can't unselect the launch option (I have to uninstall the game and reinstall it for it to work again).

If I run it after selecting the Direct X 12 launch option, I get an error alert saying "DX12 is not supported on your system, try running without the -dx12 or -d3d12 command line argument" (which is odd since D3DMetal does support DirectX 12)

Here's Heroic's log :

For me on Linux at least there are the "default" and DX12 launch options:

When I don't select anything, it's DX11/DXVK, otherwise it's DX12/VKD3D.

It's true that it cannot be deselected once selected (so You must restart Heroic to deselect dx12 back to default dx11).

I think that game not running in dx12 mode is not directly tied to Heroic though. (insert works on my machine here, but on linux, not mac)

[nonoche2]

thing is, the DX12 version works fine on Mac thanks to GPTK (the Steam version of the game runs like a charm with DX12). Also, restarting Heroic doesn't reset the launch option for me, I have to uninstall the game once the DX12 option has been selected
