How do I properly use gamescope (lemmy.zip)

I am trying to use gamescope and mangohud at same time so I ran gamescope -e -W 2560 -H 1440 -r 144 --mangoapp %command% (to run at 1440p at 144fps I think) as the launch option on steam but when I load into the game aiming goes crazy like 100x sensitivity but cursor movement (like in setting etc is normal). Is the command wrong I also hit win+f to make full screen. Is this the right way to use gamescope?

Thanks

Sorry for the late response, I meant gamescope. I looked into it, it seems like umu-run has a bug where it expects DISPLAY=:0 but gamescope sets DISPLAY=:1. At least that's my understanding. It has been patched in the repo but there's no release with the patch yet.

Gamescope works fine if umu-run is not used to run the program.
