Patch 3.26 PoE doesnt start

Linux/Lutris. Patch 3.26 downloaded without issue. Clicked 'Launch'. PoE quit instead of launching.
Game doesnt start up on more attempts either, it checks patching or something, then it quits.

No idea, no error message. There used to be some weird Linux issues (which GGG fixed eventually) in the past, maybe these are back.

Similar issue here. MacOS 14.7.6 M1 Pro. Launching via Steam. Game client appears in process tree, but GUI doesn't start, crashes shortly after hitting "Play" on Steam.

Client was working before the 3.26 patch.

Same problem on Steamdeck

Logs:

[INFO Client 304] [JOB] Irrecoverable Exception Callback: SET
[INFO Client 304] [HTTP2] User agent: PoE release/tags/3.26.0 Windows x64
[INFO Client 304] [HTTP2] Using backend: cURL

Made bug report as its apparently a GGG side fail instead of my system having issues. https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3789636

Also tried changing to Dx11/Dx12 which didnt work.

SAme here with MAC .. we were unable to play POE on MAC since midd 3.25 and now they said they fixed MAC on 3.26 and made it worse. can't even launch the game. GGG please fix this !!!!!

In this thread https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3789636 multiple individual (not generally applicable) solutions/workarounds have been posted. Maybe you can find something there which may help you.

I tried using compatibility options on Steam (like choosing Proton Experimental instead) and:
it makes it start just fine, I can log in
it freezes after a moment, before I even get to play the game

Yep win 10
Get cursor, music, no gears nothing else.
Have reinstalled over the top of original game.
No joy.

It's getting worse, the game won't even start on the first day of league start.

I was getting same problem on W10. On the production_Config.ini file there is a line "device_type=" I switch from DirectX12 to DirectX11 and now works. Game still glitching but i can play.
