So I updated from 0.5.1.x to
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/strycore/xUbuntu_18.10/amd64/lutris_0.5.2.1_amd64.deb
I had to download it manually because using apt-get would always claim that the above repo was failing with invalid signature.
The Blizzard launcher still works fine, but when I try to run Overwatch and Starcraft now, they never shows up but instead an error window pops up saying
“Blizzard Error
The Application encountered an unexpected error”
D:
Edit: I added the Lutris repo key again so the gpg error is gone now it seems.
If this helps: In the Blizzard launcher there is this animated blue icon indicating that content is supposed to load, like videos/news, but it never stops. This seems odd. My internet connection is working fine though.
Edit2: I reinstalled it in Lutris, now not even the Blizzard client shows up but just a Lutris error “Your limits are not correctly set”. So I went to the link Lutris displayed and it says to enter this command
ulimit -Hn
and if it returns a value greater than 524288 then “you are all set!”. Well it returns 1048576 for me which clearly IS greater. So what now…?
Edit3: Ok, only way to make it work again was to disable “ESync”. At least it loads the news/content in the Launcher now again and the game starts too!
