Compatibility Report

  • Name of the game with compatibility issues: Vtube Studio
  • Steam AppID of the game: 1325860

System Information

  • Link to full system information report as Gist: https://gist.github.com/orowith2os/7c59734534bd69c3da05d22accf076a5
  • Proton version: Any
  • ADDITIONAL NOTES: I am running Steam through Distrobox (Podman). The host is Fedora Rawhide. I've confirmed that this issue happens when it's all native as well. It also seems that Human Fall Flat has this issue as well, judging from a conversation with a user on Discord.

I confirm:

  • [x] that I haven't found an existing compatibility report for this game.
  • [x] that I have checked whether there are updates for my system available.

Symptoms

Camera does not work at all. The game detects it, but it can't view it at all. I've verified that this is the case with normal Wine as well.
I can, however, run OpenSeeFace to track and it works just fine.

Reproduction

Run the app as normal, and try to use a system webcam (no external facetracker).
You can also try this with VSeeFace and see that this issue happens there as well. VSeeFace also has a tutorial on getting it to work with Linux and macOS.

I believe this may be more of an upstream Wine problem than a Proton problem. The camera stack in Wine might be fairly immature, at least until PipeWire support is added.

For me it just briefly flashes the "Play" button to "Stop" and then back to "Play", opening no window.
I tried every available version of proton from the compatibility dropdown from 5.3 onwards and none worked, as well as 7.something even refusing to install.

That's probably because WINE (what Proton is based on) doesn't seem to have webcam support anywhere near their priority list. But because it's open-source you can add it if you have the coding skills and time. Which I both don't have, unfortunately.
