Hello, I am encountering a weird issue while trying to launch BattleBit. It gets through EAC just fine, and then suddenly throws an error saying, “could not switch to desired monitor resolution.”

I am running on a laptop with a discrete rtx 2050, connected to a monitor with laptop display disabled, using the proprietary nvidia drivers on fedora 39 kinoite (Can’t wait for fedora 40 to ship with NVK). I have tried multiple proton versions from beta, down to 6.06 at which point the game wouldn’t launch at all. I also tried ProtonGE.

All of my other games work without issue.

Sidenote, this happens everytime I try to launch, except for once yesterday after a flatpak update which happened to include something with mesa, but for an unrelated application. I was able to play without issue for a few hours, but the issue cropped up again today.

I didn’t quite figure out the issue. It seemed to be a problem with directx, and I wasn’t certain how to proceed. I chose to uninstall the nvidia drivers and proceed, for the time, with integrated graphics on my Intel chip until NVK ships with fedora 40
