I've been testing around quite a bit now and it seems like adding vblank_mode=0 has no effect when set as Launch Parameter. A great example would be the game Xonotic (which suppors vblank_mode). When adding the xonotic.sh file as a non steam game and then try setting the launchparameter to vblank_mode=0 nothing happens. Only way to disable vsync seems to be adding -> bash -c "vblank_mode=0 /targetdir/xonotic.sh" as "Target". Then vsync is disabled.
