No way to launch the game using the NVIDIA dgpu on linux

[DistortedDragon1o4]

There is no way to launch hytale using the dgpu from within the launcher, and trying to run the launcher with prime-run results in a black screen with the following error in the console.

Could not create GBM EGL display: EGL_NOT_INITIALIZED. Aborting...

I don't have an AMD gpu so cannot say what happens in that case.

Hello! This is very strange bug. And probably related to game itself and not to us. I have Nvidia GPU and i do not have any issues with the game.

I meant to say the launcher gives that error, I have had success launching the game with the dgpu through other launchers.

Oh okay i can see the issue. We are launching game if users session is Wayland we append env variable SDL_VIDEODRIVER=wayland. This could be the issue

Let me be clear here, when trying to launch the launcher with prime-run the launcher fails to render, the window is completely black and does not take inputs.

When launching the launcher with DRI_PRIME=1 the launcher starts, however hitting play causes the game to use llvmpipe, this might be fixable as these guys also seemed to have a similar issue amiayweb/Hytale-F2P#90
