The game Space Engineers does not open, not showing even the splash screen. I've noticed the following in the log when I try to open it:

wine: Call from 0x7b43c45c to unimplemented function mscoree.dll.CorIsLatestSvc, aborting
wine: Unimplemented function mscoree.dll.CorIsLatestSvc called at address 0x7bc50023:0x7b43c45c (thread 0015), 
starting debugger...

After the starting debugger message there are no relevant messages.

I would assume that reports about games not working which are not whitelisted are not relevant.

FFurretUber 2018-08-22 github

I'm sorry for asking, but where can I see which games are whitelisted?

MMidaychi 2018-08-22 github

It requires .net 4.0 installed under XP compat and then .net 4.7.1 installed under win7 compat and possibly some xact/xaudio components from directx. It would be necessary for the maintainer to make their own proton setup to do this through steam play.

MMidaychi 2018-08-22 github

Alternatively you could set up your own local compatibility tool setup that handles this, but I am unsure of how you'd integrate it into steam.

MMidaychi 2018-08-22 github

That said, Space engineers will likely require using the built in wine d3d11 and will never be able to use DXVK, because it relies heavily on texture streaming. This is a legacy feature that will not be implemented in the Vulkan rendering pipeline.

GGabrielMajeri 2018-08-22 github

The Steam announcement gives a pretty clear list of which games are officially supported. The Wine Application Database can also be consulted for other games which might work. Here is the entry for this game, which says it's not playable yet.

Aaeikum 2018-08-22 github

This is because we're missing .NET support, which is provided by wine-mono in Wine.

Vvanyasem 2018-08-22 github

You could try to manually install Microsoft DotNet in the prefix (located in steamapps/compatdata/GAMEID/pfx) using this guide

Sims 3 requires a .Net replacement (e.g. wine-mono) with a patch for browser embed functions.

The patch is currently available on the Codeweaver's branch of Wine-Mono but should be in the main branch sooner or later.

Hi, i just want to report i get:
Call from 0x7b43c45c to unimplemented function mscoree.dll.CorIsLatestSvc, aborting
on Saint Seiya: Soldiers' Soul (348710) too despite there's people reporting it's working fine for them on the google docs spreadsheet.

Space Engineers also makes use of the stream output functionality of DX11 and seems to be integral to the game launching properly.
I got everything up to the splash screen after I installed .NET 4.0 and 4.7.1 and then started the game to which it only crashes with a stacktrace. Vulkan does not implement stream output therefore DXVK won't be able to translate the game even after you install the necessary .NET requirements.

Llibookami 2018-08-26 github

Hi again, yesterday i tested using ubuntu 16.04, today i upgraded to 18.04 and tried again and now the game (Saint Seiya: Soldiers' Soul) works fine, i don't know if the difference was upgrading to 18.04 or a change with proton but previously i only got a black screen (and the steam overlay). Thanks for everything.

AXYOS (318100) requires DotNet, graphical installer says "not enough space"
Digger Online (318100) requires DotNet

Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams (223220) is also affected by this bug with Proton 3.7-6.

Hi, you can explain make a guide for use wine-mono or install .net, this guide use wine path, but i dont know how modify the wineprefix because i go to the path of installed game in

steamapps/compatdata/601510/pfx
ls 
dosdevices  drive_c  system.reg  userdef.reg  user.reg

and later of here i dont know what i need to modify

MMidaychi 2018-09-16 github

In this case, relative to where your game is located, \steamapps\compatdata<id of game>\pfx\ is the directory you should set to the wine prefix environment variable.

example, if you had a steam folder named steamfolder on drive Z and a game id of 23310 you'd do
WINEPREFIX=Z:\steamfolder\steamapps\compatdata\23310\pfx wineboot --init

based on that guide

Is there any reason why wine-mono isn't already part of 3.16? This is a deal breaker for many games and I would consider this a high priority.

OOvermindDL1 2018-10-22 github

Mono won't work for all games though, such as Space Engineers, need proper .NET instead. Plus having both installed tends to break things.

Mono won't work for all games though, such as Space Engineers, need proper .NET instead. Plus having both installed tends to break things.

Wine-Mono and Mono in general are getting better, covering more of the library base.

A good portion of the .Net code-base has been re-licensed to MIT License. They should be able to be recompiled for linking to wine-mono just fine. This would mostly cover things like Microsoft's .Net GCs for games that specifically depend on them.

Mono also has a lot better GDI libraries already, which are in the process of being integrated into Wine-Mono, although the ActiveX infrastructure is still not supported. This is the biggest block on many functions.

OOvermindDL1 2018-12-06 github

@crowlogic https://github.com/Sirmentio/protontricks is the easiest way, it is to steam proton as winetricks is to wine. :-)

OOvermindDL1 2018-12-06 github

Installing dotnet35 is not mono, you'd want forcemono for that. You can try installing the latest normal dotnet as well (which should include the earlier ones).

OOvermindDL1 2018-12-06 github

forcemono is in the settings. You need mono installed globally too I 'think'.

OOvermindDL1 2018-12-07 github

@crowlogic What game?

OOvermindDL1 2018-12-07 github

The winedb page for that game was last listed as garbage, however it might be better now as that was a very old wine version, however they did have to run it in a 32-bit wine with a lot of things installed via *tricks. Try installing via protontricks dotnet452, dotnet45, dotnet40, quartz, xact_jun2010, xna40? It might be best to look at a dedicated issue for that game on this repo as well.

Kkisak-valve maintainer 2018-12-07 github

Hello @crowlogic, @OvermindDL1, please use #2060 for your game-specific discussion.

Proton 4.2-3 ships wine-mono, so I think we should close this bug and move remaining issues onto individual games. There are two major common issues remaining: WPF support and winforms support. We have labels for these issues, so I think we should use those labels to indicate affected games instead of making one single tracker bug for them.
