Hi !
First, I'm not used to forums, so feel free to tell me if I do something wrong here. Now, to the problem :

  • I recently installed CachyOS and Celeste via Steam on top of it. In vanilla Celeste, everything works fine.
  • I tried installing Olympus following the steps for Linux here : https://everestapi.github.io/
  • When running ./install.sh, I get this console prompt (Téléchargements stands for Downloads here) :
❯ ./install.sh
Olympus exists at /home/nono/Téléchargements/dist
For a full installation experience, this script will set up the following:
A desktop file will be created at /home/nono/.local/share/applications/Olympus.desktop
The everest scheme handler will be registered for your user

If you want to install Olympus system-wide, it is recommended to copy Olympus to /opt/olympus/, fix permissions and run install.sh as root.

Do you want to continue? y/N: y
Creating /home/nono/.local/share/applications/Olympus.desktop
Registering everest scheme handler
/usr/bin/xdg-mime: ligne 885: qtpaths: commande introuvable
Updating desktop database
Done!```

note : 'commande introuvable' means 'command not found'

- After that I tried to launch Olympus, which appears in the PC-Apps... But it doesn't open any window.
- I tried to rerun the script in **/opt/olympus/** after moving the **dist** folder there, and got the exact same result.
- Rebooting the PC didn't magically work x)
- I tried to follow the cross-platform manual installation, but it didn't give any result. I couldn't swear I did it correctly though.

Since then, I uninstalled and reinstalled Celeste to get a clean repository, and am ready to listen to y'all wise people ^^
If anyone wants to help, well, thanks a lot !

Well yeah

Update : I installed Olympus through flatpak, installed and played Strawberry Jam for a bit, and it works great !

Last trouble I have is I can't launch Celeste or Everest through Olympus (but both work fine on their own) : when trying to do so I get this message.

#

If it's the only problem it doesn't really matter though

#

Checked the installation folder, it's the right one : /home/ME/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Celeste/

#

And before trying that I changed the Steam compatibility : otherwise my controller's triggers wouldn't be recognized.

I think there are better solutions for broken controllers...

#

Try enabling or disabling steam input

#

But proton is most probably breaking your olympus launching

#

And often causes lag and graphical bugs

Well it's a default controller I've never had problem with before, so I thought the problem came from the game. Steam Input is disabled, I'll try with it.

#

Disabled proton, enabled steam input : olympus wanted to reinstall Everest, so I did it, still got the error message before & after rebooting the PC

#

If it's the olympus not launching celeste just launch through steam, probably caused by leftovers of proton so verify game files on native, if it doesn't work reinstall the game (move the current install elsewhere)

uninstalled everything, reinstalled without enabling proton, everything works perfectly (for now !) with steam input
