I'm glad I came across this thread. I couldn't get Insurgency to launch with Proton 7.0-3 or Proton Experimental or ProtonGE 7-18, etc, then I saw this thread which said Proton 6 works fine. I tried Proton 6.3-8 and it launched right away.
Really weird that Proton 7 doesn't work at all for this game.
Worth noting that around 9 months ago (at the time of writing) I was able to run this game just fine on Proton 7.0.1 in ZorinOS, and so were other users in other versions of Proton 7, by preloading specific libc-related libraries. This was the command I used (which varies from other ProtonDB reports as it depends on the distro as to where the directories for the 32-bit and 64-bit libraries are:
LD_PRELOAD="/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6 /usr/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libxcb.so.1 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgpg-error.so.0 $LD_PRELOAD" mangohud %command%
However, as of this time with EndeavourOS even when adjusting my command for Arch-based directories, it only causes pre-loading errors be it wtih Proton 7.0.5 or Experimental:
ERROR: ld.so: object '/run/host/usr/lib32/libstdc++.so.6' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32): ignored.
ERROR: ld.so: object '/run/host/usr/lib32/libgcc_s.so.1' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32): ignored.
ERROR: ld.so: object '/run/host/usr/lib32/libxcb.so.1' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32): ignored.
ERROR: ld.so: object '/run/host/usr/lib32/libgpg-error.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32): ignored.
As is mentioned above, using the older Proton 6.3.8 works as well.
Hi all,
I tested Insurgency again and tried a recent Proton version (9.0-4) and the game works again. No issues on my end anymore.
