Jedi Survivor refusing to start

Help
1

Hi all I’m pretty new to NixOS although so far I love it, when trying to launch Jedi Survivor through Steam, the game looks to be running but never actually starts. I’ve tried changing the proton version but the same thing happens.

These are the only messages that appear if I run from CLI -

fsync: up and running.

Does anyone know what is causing this?

I’ve worked out it’s something to so with the EA ‘launcher’, by changing the Proton version, I eventually had the EA screen come up, when I clicked on Jedi Survivor, it said ‘app broken’ or something similar. I’ve tried the exact same thing on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed (same drive, partition, etc but replacing / and /home) and it launched with no problems at all.
