First of all, sorry if it's the wrong community. I tried asking in the NixOS Discord but they were completely useless so far.

As stated above I use NixOS (btw). I have two PCs, a Lenovo A285 and a desktop, both have NixOS with the same exact configurations (except for hardware related stuff, so disk encryotion for my laptop, automounting disks for the desktop, stuff like that). The program versions are both the same, however on my laptop the HoI4 launcher looks like pic related, while it works perfectly fine on the desktop.

If I resize the launcher the background image displays for a little bit but then it goes blank like in pic related, I can still push button and all and they work but without knowing what I'm clicking it's kinda useless.

Running journalctl I get this.

Obviously this is an issue as I can't change mods unless I uninstall and reinstall them whenever I need to disable/enable them.

Anyone know what could be the cause?

EDIT: I want to note that other games work fine, and I never had this problem with Arch and arch-based distros.

EDIT 2: Forcing it to go through Proton works though if someone finds another solution for native do let us know.

Cant speak for HoI4, but I found running the windows version in proton works better for EU4.

hmm could be, however doesn't explain why it works on one machine but not here (or with different distros), they're both native.
