Direct3D 11 games are crashing while starting on Wayland with Proton versions 5.13-6 and 6.3-3.

My test results

Proton Sway (Wayland) Plasma (Wayland) i3 (X11)
Experimental :heavy_check_mark: :heavy_check_mark: :heavy_check_mark:
6.3-3 :x: :x: :heavy_check_mark:

3.7-8 :heavy_check_mark: :heavy_check_mark: :heavy_check_mark:

:heavy_check_mark: Works

:x: Doesn't work

Games tested

  • Beat Saber (Unity, VR, D3D11)
  • SynthVR (Unity, VR, D3D11)
  • Autonauts (Unity, D3D11)
  • NieR: Automata (D3D11)

Workarounds

  • Using X11 (Not a good workaround)
  • Enabling WineD3D (Also not good)
  • WINEDLLOVERRIDES=dxgi=n %command% (Actually works!!, but why?)

Logs / Screenshots

Beat Saber and SynthVR:
DX11 not initialized

NieR: Automata
No VRAM?

Autonauts

Make sure you have DirectX 11 installed, have up to date

drivers for your graphics card and have not disabled

3D acceleration in display settings.
Crash!!!

Adding WINEDLLOVERRIDES=dxgi=n to the starting options resolves the issue - see section Workarounds in the first issue comment.

I was having problems getting Twilight Struggle, a Unity game, running on Steam/Proton Experimental with Ubuntu 21.04. With Ubuntu 20.10 I had been using PROTON_USE_WINED3D11=1 %command% as the configuration string. That worked with Ubuntu 21.04 for a period of time after installation because I appended --xwayland to the configuration string. Then it stopped working under both XWayland and XOrg.

Reading this issue I found that WINEDLLOVERRIDES=dxgi=n %command% allows the game to run under XOrg and adding --xwayland works under XWayland but at a much lower frame rate, like 1 FPS.

I am experiencing the same issue, except that the workaround does not seem to work for me. I can confirm that using proton version 5.0-10 works fine under Wayland, but anything higher than that does not.

Hello @Ristovski, please copy the contents of Steam Runtime Diagnostics from Steam (Steam -> Help -> Steam Runtime Diagnostics) and put it in a gist, then include a link to the gist in this issue report.

RRistovski 2023-07-27 github

I have updated my original comment.

Furthermore, I can confirm that vulkan works fine inside the flatpak environment via flatpak run org.freedesktop.Platform.VulkanInfo.

Kkisak-valve maintainer 2023-07-27 github

Looking at the diagnostics information, there's some kind of snafu with XCB connections and Steam Linux Runtime interaction with Flatpak. (https://gist.github.com/Ristovski/016710a5e5ccb6b32a2e3cc93caf0eb7#file-gistfile1-txt-L3723)

Please open a new issue report in https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-runtime/ focusing on that XCB detail.
