Also, the issue template said to drag/drop the steam-<app id>.log file, but it's apparently 38MB and GitHub disapproves.

Hello @duckinator, the log should compress well in an archive.

Does a newer version of proton behave better if you right click on the game -> Properties -> and check Force the use of a specific Steam Play compatibilty tool?

For 3.7-8 (what the default is), it does what I described above.

For the following, it doesn't even start:

  • 3.7-8 Beta
  • 3.16-4
  • 3.16-8 Beta
  • 4.2-2

Here's zip files that each contain the logs for the Proton version mentioned in the file name.

There's a good chance you've encountered https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/6045. Please opt into Steam's beta client and/or go to Steam -> Library dropdown -> Tools and manually install the Proton versions you want to use.

Dduckinator 2019-04-14 github

Yup, you were right -- it hadn't downloaded the other Proton versions. I opted in to the Steam beta client, and it downloaded them, now.

However, still no luck: steam-beta-logs-4.2-2.zip

(Corrected the AppID in the issue title.)

"GPU : Intel(R) HD Graphics 630 (Kaby Lake GT2)\n"

Possibly an Intel GPU issue, I'm not sure how well Vulkan is supported there.

I just noticed that there were mesa updates available, so I did a system update to see if that'd help.

Now it never shows a window, then drops a .dmp file in /tmp.

Logs: steam-379720.log

ZIP file containing the .dmp file: crash_20190415161810_2.zip

Hello @duckinator, your log and minidump look like a general Steam issue. Maybe try restarting Steam?

Dduckinator 2019-04-16 github

I had already done so, but looks like restarting Steam a second time made it so it shows the window and doesn't crash.

It doesn't work even as well as it did before the update, though. I'm going to poke at it some more later and try to at least get back to the original problem, heh.

Are you still able to reproduce this problem?

Dduckinator 2019-12-20 github

Hey, sorry, I couldn't manage to get it to even launch the game properly any more after that Steam update I mentioned before. This is still the case, 7 months later. (I tried again a moment ago, just to see.)

I wound up just dual-booting Windows 10 and playing it there. :woman_shrugging:

Dduckinator 2019-12-20 github

So since nobody else has mentioned having my original problem here, you can go ahead and close it if you want, since I can't reproduce it anymore lol

Closing per the last comment.
