Compatibility Report

  • Name of the game with compatibility issues: Insurgency: Sandstorm
  • Steam AppID of the game: 581320

System Information

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.

steam-581320.log.zip

Symptoms

  1. Graphical artifacts if not using native resolution (I'm using 1920x1200 on my 3840x1600 monitor)
    As soon as I take a screenshot or start screen recording the artifacts go away, hence the mobile photo. The issue starts being visible on picture 4 although not easy to spot on the picture due to so much dark. Easy to spot IRL due to some flicker.

  2. It is not possible to open the steam overlay
    Not working regardless of resolution.

  3. Steam FPS counter (top left) isn't working
    Not working regardless of resolution.

Reproduction

Happens 100 % of the time since the 2023-01-10 update of the game.

Other notes

The graphical glitches disappear if i take a screenshot with grim or if I record with wf-recorder. After that the window also gets stretched (same thing happens when switching workspace and back).

When exiting the game this is printed:

src/steamexe/main.cpp (254) : Assertion Failed: reaping pid: 7557 -- gameoverlayui

Also tried with GE-Proton7-43 but it's even worse. So many graphical artifacts it's not possible to see anything.

Hello @mlandalv, we're using one issue report per unofficially supported game title, so I've gone ahead and transferred this issue report to https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/1651#issuecomment-1380866604.

Wow, an official pro-necro policy. Also, a very weird and unusual (and bad, really bad) policy.
