Symptoms

There is a vidoe file that is supposed to play as the background of the main menu, inventory, skill menu etc but under Linux it does not plays making most of those menus unusable as visible here:

Reproduction

Start the game and notice the background of the main menu is missing, you have to progress a bit into the game to open the skill menu but it's perfectly reproducible every time. I have tried Proton GE and other versions, it also happens on my Steam Deck.

I'm having exactly the same issue – white main menu and inventory background, which makes text very hard to read and basically makes it impossible to play the game.

Reproduction

  • Play through the tutorial/introduction of the game, about 15 minutes in the game for real begins and you get to a camp where there is an orientation room. Supposed to be a video playing on the projector:

  • Kernel version: 6.3.4-201.fc38.x86_64

With current Proton Experimental the videos are now working (both the projector videos in-game and the main menu background). I can't see any remaining problems :tada:
