Prey 2006
anyone confirm it works with amdgpu and igpus?
@Rabcor I thought I'd try registering my old dvd version with my steam account to test for you. But it says the code is registered to another account... ehhhh??.. Anyway, there is always the native version https://icculus.org/prey/ if you have an old copy and can't get it working with Steam Play.
Don't even need the old copy. You can use the Steam files with the native version. Works great.
There's even an SDL compatibility layer so you can alt-tab/alt-f4/etc. https://github.com/MrAlert/sdlcl
@Rabcor I'll test real quick on AMDGPU (RX 560)
Runs fine on AMDGPU as well (Had to use Steam runtime instead of native)
EDIT: Does work through steam-native. I was missing lib32-vulkan-icd-loader which caused dxvk (even though not in use) to bail. All good here!
Works apparently flawlessly on Proton 5.13, Linux Mint 20 NV 390 drivers
however, it won't allow (probably like many proton games) flipping to other running apps or desktop whilst it is running, reference https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/358
With Proton 7.0 and an AMD GPU:
Otherwise the game seems to work fine.
Hello @davidebeatrici, please add PROTON_LOG=1 %command% to the game's launch options and attach the generated $HOME/steam-$APPID.log to this issue report as a file. (Proton logs compress well if needed.) Also, please copy your system information from Steam (Steam -> Help -> System Information) and put it in a gist, then include a link to the gist in this issue report.
Unable to replicate on RX 480

Could you attach preyconfig.cfg (base folder in the game's directory), please?
Disabling antialiasing (r_multiSamples) fixes the black translucent items issue:
Lighting still looks bad though.

Updating to Mesa 21.3.7 (@parkerlreed's version) didn't fix the issue(s) unfortunately, 22.0.99 neither.
No changes with MESA_LOADER_DRIVER_OVERRIDE=zink (Vulkan <-> OpenGL) either.
@parkerlreed How does the game look on your system? Also, do you confirm enabling antialiasing breaks translucent items?
Yep can confirm with AA on it does do the rendering issue
A person on #winehackers:libera.chat was able to reproduce the issue(s) with an Nvidia GPU.
This is a Proton-specific issue, the game works flawlessly with vanilla Wine. We suspect the culprit is fshack.
No rendering issues at all with Proton-7.1-GE-2, the last version before fshack was introduced (ValveSoftware/wine@045bf41a42665b1a0c56d0549a6b34fd330f052b).
@kisak-valve Do you perhaps know which is the latest version of Proton without fshack in Steam?
All proton versions include some incarnation of fshack.
@jstuder-gh (OP) claimed that he was able to complete the game without encountering any issues on Proton 3.7, though.
Found a bug with the Steam overlay: after taking a screenshot it mixed itself with portals and the main menu:
Screenshots
Also, the game and the overlay seem to be stealing input from each other.
NVIDIA user: Can reproduce the black outlines with in-game AA enabled.
But that aside, has no one else really noticed the color depth discrepancy yet?
(Windows-SteamPlay)
(Note the banding on the stall)
(Linux-Icculus)
(Note the banding-be-gone!)
Config files don't seem to expose any color depth options, and since this seems to be OpenGL to begin with, I'm unsure what the issue is.
I would agree to prefer the native port, if it didn't have atrocious frame pacing and a fullscreen mode that disables my second monitor and messed with my desktop layout, so... :x
The issue you're encountering is shown in the screenshots I captured right outside the bathroom, after switching the lights off.
Micro-stuttering is regular and you can fix it by setting com_fixedTic to 1.
Please note that you have to enable V-Sync or use an FPS limiter, as the 63-FPS cap gets removed. If the magical number is surpassed, physics go crazy.
As for the native port, use SDLCL: https://lutris.net/files/tools/sdlcl-1.0-i686.tar.gz
The update to Proton Experimental (as of 3/31/2022) seems to have fixed the colors. The MSAA black artifacts issue still remains, but otherwise seems accurate and very playable.
Confirmed.
I'd like to add that not just the water is broken (black) when AA is enabled, Spirit Walk is absolutely unplayable too:
However, on Proton 4.11-13 Spirit Walk works fine with AA enabled. Water was fine too when I just started the game.
