There were packaging issues on NixOS recently I believe: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/226086
I am also using the new client and it's working fine at least on STL built from git.
And just for clarity, games not launching when used from the CLI is expected, but I get the impression you understood that already :-) STL gets the actual launch command to use from Steam, so it has nothing to launch when used from the CLI (it may be possible to try and fudge this a little bit, but some games like Hades and Cookie Clicker have custom launch arguments that come from Steam, so it would be a bit of a moot point when the most reliable way will always be to take in the Steam launch command).
I have a suspicion that this is related to the error mentioned, you can try to follow the replication instructions there and see if the issue is the same (launch Steam from the terminal and try to launch a game with STL, and see if it shows the error mentioned). If so, you could politely leave a "thumbs up" on the issue. I can't see anything in the logs indicating that this is an issue on the STL side.
I am not the package maintainer for NixOS (I am a maintainer of the AUR package, but someone much more knowledgeable than me actually maintains it), so if it is a Nix issue I cannot do very sadly. If the issue is the same as the linked one, then this is fixed by #824 (the user who made the linked Nix packaging issue very kindly helped investigate the problem in #822 and then went on to fix it themselves!)
I just tested on my Arch PC to be sure, and STL is still working as expected, so there shouldn't be any changes on Steam's side to break this.
It is not impossible that this is a packaging issue.
I can replicate a similar problem by using SteamTinkerLaunch as a command-line argument for Proton games instead of using it as a compatibility tool (incorrect usage, as noted on the wiki and readme). It's inconsistent, though.
Given that there is an issue with SteamTinkerLaunch on Nix, it's probably related to that rather than a SteamTinkerLaunch-specific issue.
I am not sure if there has been a packaging update on the NixOS side (or if there can be, for reasons I outlined in #824), so this issue needs a re-test before I can say for sure where the issue lies.
If the NixOS issue sounds like yours, please feel free to close this issue.
@sonic2kk It seems to be a packaging issue. The issue is in the command steamtinkertool compat add, which does not point to the proper tool but the wrapper instead. Doing this https://gist.github.com/jakehamilton/632edeb9d170a2aedc9984a0363523d3 made it work again for now :) It's not a fix, but more of a workaround for now.
System Information
Issue Description
Unable to launch steamtinkerlaunch from Steam. The launcher does not show up and no new logs in .config/steamtinkerlaunch/logs. Running from cli works for the launcher but the game (skyrim) never starts. It used to work previously without any issues. I tried recreating a new wine prefix, but nothing works. The only think I changed is the steam client is updated to GPU accelerated one (beta).
