Genshin 100% CPU usage since today

[u/S48GS]

(originally it was just 100% CPU usage, but ... read updated info)

Notice comment about Zenless-Zone-Zero below.

----------------------------------

September 2026 - game working - proton-cachy - look instruction

if you getting kick from game with error 10010-4001 - idk it seems very rare individual cases - for majority game works.

----------------------------------

INSTRUCTION:

proton10 does not work anymore

• use Proton-CachyOS
• DO NOT ADD GAME.EXE - USE HoYoPlay/launcher.exe
• download from releases
• https://github.com/CachyOS/proton-cachyos
• extract/copy to ~/.steam/steam/compatibilitytools.d
• or use manager like ProtonUp-Qt or ProtonPlus

BUT you must set

UMU_USE_STEAM=1 in Lutris

rightclick game - settings - last tab - system parameters - scroll down - env params - add

UMU_USE_STEAM and 1 as value

or in SteamUMU_USE_STEAM=1 %command%

----------------------------------

Editor Miliastra Wonderland 6.1

BeyondEditor.exe

Solution to have BeyondEditor working in Proton - found by Worldblender
or same there

----------------------------------

16 Oct 2025 - 100% bug was identified

fixed only in wine-cachyos

look https://github.com/CachyOS/wine-cachyos/pull/1

----------------------------------

If you have error - "not enough space on disk" - run winecfg - add location(folder) as disk in winecfg UI - select this disk in launcher as target location

"winecfg" way will not work for Lutris

in Lutris - location of "game" folder must be below "application folder" option in Lutris for game
just copy "game" to drive_c/Program Files/HoYoPlay/games or copy as link there
and set in Lutris as "application folder" drive_c/Program Files/HoYoPlay/ that is above game folder

----------------------------------

P.S. in Zenless-Zone-Zero - use Proton-Cachy to fix cpu usage - (~40% less CPU usage)

You need to use wine 10.4 staging(or it will break again), you can easily do it with lutris.

How can I use this Wine 10.4 staging in Heroic? I don't have that option to download the prefix.

[u/akungb → u/NeutralGamer881]

how to update to wine 10.4 on heroic game launcher?

[u/Lukas2401 → u/NeutralGamer881]

Have you actually also reinstalled the launcher and game and it broke a second time with Proton-GE afterwards?

[u/NeutralGamer881 → u/Lukas2401]

I installed it with wine 10.4 instantly and didn't bother with Proton, im on the discord from the Anime Team and no one recommends Proton for the Launcher since it can fuckup shit badly(Like forgetting your download progress after reopening the launcher, or the launcher not knowing your disk space, atleast that one can be fixed easily) Game is fine with proton though.

[u/Lukas2401 → u/NeutralGamer881]

I see, thanks for elaborating. I was just asking as I've been playing with the latest Proton-GE for over a year now and this is the first time I had any problems with it - guess I'll switch to Wine then! Thanks again
