WeMod blocks button inputs

The Game Does Not Respond to Button Presses

Issue Description:

WeMod was installed on a Steam Deck following instructions from Discord. After successfully launching WeMod using Proton 8+, the game loads, but it does not respond to any button presses before or after pressing "Play" in WeMod. It appears that WeMod may be intercepting inputs and not passing them to the game.

Environment Details:

  • Proton Version: GE-Proton8-32
  • Device: Steam Deck OLED
  • Script Version: Latest as of August 2024

Suggested Solution:

  1. Close WeMod Window: After setting your cheats in WeMod, close the WeMod window. It will continue to run in the background, and this might stop it from intercepting button inputs.

  2. Reopen from System Tray: If needed, you can reopen WeMod from the system tray while the game runs.

  3. Test Without WeMod: If the problem persists even when WeMod is not running, the issue could be with the game itself rather than WeMod or the launcher.


Additional Context:

The wemod-launcher only installs and runs WeMod under Wine on Linux. If the issue lies within WeMod or the game itself, it may not be something the launcher can address.
