I've got the game running on Linux via Steam Proton, and it runs great, got over 900h in it already. There's just one problem, Ubisoft Launcher takes over 5 minutes to start the game. Anyone know if there's something I can do about it?
#Ubisoft Launcher takes forever on Linux

Yea, switch to Windows.
wary pulsar
that takes even longer than 5 minutes
spark elm
well
on my steam deck it doesnt take that long to launch
so it must be something on your end
wary pulsar
that's good to know, it means it's fixable
wary pulsar
oh this isn't new, i've had that since i started playing almost a year ago
spark elm
then it's something on your end for sure
wary pulsar
most of the time i push "play" and go make a cup of tea, and the game pops up more or less when the tea is ready
wary pulsar
it's just the steam ver
spark elm
hmm
yea on steam deck that thing just starts
shrug
try switching to proton experimental
maybe that helps
(that's usually my go-to fix for anything on steam on linux)

hm interesting. so it's ubisoft connect itself that takes forever to start, if i close just tm, then the tray icon starts tm back up again near instantly
but i close ubisoft connect when i'm done playing because otherwise steam counts tm as open and playtime keeps going up

mine was fine until an hour or so ago where it just stopped working entirely

interesting, what distro are you using? also have you tried setting the game to use proton experimental?

i have the issue with Linux Mint 22
any Proton version doesnt matter, all the same
using Wine's devel build from the WineHQ ppa also exerts the issue
upc.exe starts immediately but it takes ages to do anything
