Compatibility Report

Confirmed. I have the exact same issues. None of the 4.11.x or 5.0.x official Proton versions work. GE Proton versions don't work either. Tried this:

protontricks 495420 vcrun2017 dotnet48 win10

Didn't help.

When it crashes it leaves behind a ~3.2GB UE4 dump file. I'd love to know how to decode one of those to get more clues.

The game creates below log .../495420/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/Local Settings/Application Data/StateOfDecay2/Saved/Logs/cef3.log :

And very strange that nobody was noted what the game didn't want to work in full-screen mode. ()

Because of this, tips are displayed off-screen.

Neither "Windowed Fullscreen" nor "Fullscreen" display type options solve this problem.

i have the same problem.
you can test it faster if you go to -> manage communitys -> start new community -> skip tutorial.
after that loading it will crash.
i don't have problems with the ingame-tips, they are displaying correctly.
running Manjaro KDE with Nvidia
i run everything in Full HD

Game running and playing well on Ultra settings for initial Campaign intro, but crashes after completing it.

I have the same issue.

d3dcompiler_47 looks to fix it, so for me that was:

awesome :)

maybe someone can make the Xbox Login remember.

I tried a whole day without success :) I thing this is the problem but I don't know how to solve it:
LogModuleManager:Warning: ModuleManager: Module 'XMPP' not found - its StaticallyLinkedModuleInitializers function is null.

Now my XBox Live account (created just for this game) is locked, did note when logging in it often thought my login location had changed. Anyone else getting this?

I get a crash when trying to enable multiplayer. Anyone else have luck with multiplayer?

I'm trying to run on Linux Mint 19.3 Cinnamon, the tutorial works fine but crashes when start campaign.

The fix it's just run this command from Terminal? Or should I need to install something else before I do it?

You need to install winetricks fist.
After that you have to find the folder structure to your pfx folder
For example : WINEPREFIX=/home/YOUR_USERNAME/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/495420/pfx/

Thanks so much @McMarius11 @mozo78 , It's working now!

Is there any way to make this official on the Steam, so other people don't need to pass through this issue?

@lucasfalcao3d you can post your solution here
https://www.protondb.com/app/495420
Most gamers will look on protondb first and then buy it :)

Nice, I'll do that. I've actually followed a tutorial posted here and your wineprefix.

For those of you who've commented lately, have you tried multiplayer? Did it work?

Multiplayer does not work sadly :/

So I have tried this to no avail... I am sure its on my end. followed the instruction (funny part is I can see my Windows C: drive) pick a community, loads into the game after 5-10 seconds it freezes and then crashes.

You need d3dcompiler_47, it will not work otherwise.
If it still happens please upload your Proton log

can you try it with Proton 5.0-5 and install the d3dcompiler_47 with winetricks as stated above an try it again?
in your case it would be
WINEPREFIX=/home/sam/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/495420/pfx/ winetricks d3dcompiler_47

you can delete the 495420 <- folder and start the game again with Proton 5.0-5 after that exit the game and use the d3dcompiler_47 and start the game again

does other games runs in Proton for you? what are your specs, nvidia driver? ubuntu?

Yes...I am able to play other games with/on proton. I uninstalled and installed the game again following the instructions above with same results...below are my spec (GTX 1070 missing from spec) and the output that I got from terminal. Anything you guys could figured out is great if not I will continue to play in windows. so no big deal and thank you for your time

mhm. i tried it again and for me it works flawless.
i'm on manjaro KDE with Nvidia GTX 1070

@UNIKO585 , sorry to ask about that, but did you installed tha latest version of wine and winetricks?

It didn't worked for me at first, because the winetricks version I've installed first didn't have the d3dcompiler_47.

I've followed this guide to install wine and setup the i386 architecture.
https://vitux.com/how-to-install-wine-on-ubuntu/

And this for install the DXVK and d3dcompiler 47.
https://software.kaminata.net/linux-wine-games/state-of-decay-2-juggernaut-edition-linux-dxvk-wine/

I've followed this guide to install wine and setup the i386 architecture
I have a AMD CPU, do I need to install the i386?

I don't know the explanation for this, but here it worked with the i386 architecture. Most games that I've installed through wine used this.

Is there any knowledge as to why the game's co-op/multiplayer doesn't work at all?
Seems to be largely ignored in this thread.

@ThisNekoGuy Good question. Though it was ported to Steam and is no longer UWP, if you've played the game on Windows 10 it's clear that it still uses Windows' Xbox features. The Xbox gamebar is where you send and accept invites, and find and join group games.

Just speculation though.

@kisak-valve
Is Valve going to work with Microsoft in order to get this game's multiplayer working in preparation for the Steam Deck?

Now there's reports of the game not even starting at all with 6.3-5
This isn't looking good >_>

Working for me on 6.3-5 after using the d3dcompiler_47 workaround, though the game always freezes after circa 30min without any reason. I think it's due to the autosave.

Game starts and works like a charm after installing DXVK and d3dcompiler 47, but Multiplayer does not work

Currently game works for me with Proton experimental. Previously game was stuck at screen after intro/tutorial but now it continues past that.
Can other people with reported issues check if it works for them as well?

Edit: Mesa 21.2.4, kernel 5.15.0

Hello there, the game and the entire Steam Runtime crash after the Microsoft Studios logo for me.

I have tried using the following tinkering, with no success. In bulk as well as individually:

env WINEPREFIX="/home/<myuser>/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/495420/pfx" winetricks d3dcompiler_47 dxvk dotnet40 vcrun2015 d3dx10_43

I have tried the same procedure with:

• Proton - Experimental (as of 17/12/2022 (DD-MM-YYYY))
• Proton-GE 41 and 42
• TKG

Here's the output of the following command, after i removed the compatdata/495420 directory to do a fresh install with Proton - Experimental: Steam_Output_SoD2.log (Gist)

System Information:

• GPU: GeForce GTX 1060 3GiB
• Driver Version: 525.60.11-2
• Kernel: 6.1.0-1-MANJARO
• Full System Information

When launched on Steam Deck, the game displays a black screen and crashes after a few seconds, tried with various Proton versions without any luck.

Log: deck-steam-495420.log

Game seems to launch just fine on my desktop, but main character's body is almost invisible. Tried installing d3dcompiler_47 into the prefix, but that didn't help.

@valters-tomsons What OS update channel are you using on your Steam Deck?

@valters-tomsons What OS update channel are you using on your Steam Deck?

Stable

How do I reproduce the crash actually?

@valters-tomsons Are you still able to reproduce this? I think it should be fixed now.

@valters-tomsons Are you still able to reproduce this? I think it should be fixed now.

Hey, sadly I refunded the game and cannot test anymore.

I can't even launch the game on the Steam Deck; it just closes before the game even appears.
Also, the save sync for it isn't working either
EDIT: I had to manually set the Proton version for some reason

Anyone know how to get the microsoft login screen to appear? It goes straight to a screen that says Login Failed:

EDIT: narrowed the problem down this NoNetworkConnection line in stdout:

LogIggyEngine:Display: Dropping ExternalInterface.call/1 func=UI_SetCurrentSupplyLockerTab (target object is dead)
LogGameInstance:Warning: UDaytonGameInstance::HandleNetworkConnectionStatusChanged: Normal -> NoNetworkConnection

Although I have no idea why it works fine on both my steam deck and another arch linux system under the same network.

EDIT2:

So I figured out the problem, but not exactly why it's happening: I have pihole running (which isn't blocking any microsoft/xbox domains) and for some reason the game does not like my DNS server set to my pihole server on just my main gaming desktop. My other computers that ARE set to use pihole are able to log in just fine.

Replying to https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/3638#issuecomment-1637135615

Recently I faced the same issue on Manjaro. Tons of debugging made me aware that currently the overlay breaks Xbox login.

Bear in mind I don't run pihole, it's just the bad ELF library, according to the terminal log.

Solution: Turn off overlay.
