I confirm:

  • [*] that I haven't found an existing compatibility report for this game.

The game has a Windows 7 and a Windows 10 mode, in the Windows 10 mode audio is distorted and the end result is just very load noise. Windows 7 mode works fine.

  • Download and install game
  • When prompted, choose to launch in Windows 10 mode
  • Load a game file, or one of the tutorials.

Hello @Nowa-Ammerlaan, fixme:msvcrt:__stdio_common_vfscanf options 0x2 not handled might be a performance bottleneck, at least when logging. It might be interesting to note if that happens equally between the game modes.

Here's the log when the game is launched in Windows 7 mode: steam-784150.log.gz I loaded the same save file as I did for the Windows 10 log above.

nowa@nowa-gentoo-pc ~ % grep vfscanf steam-784150-windows7.log | wc -l
0
nowa@nowa-gentoo-pc ~ % grep vfscanf steam-784150-windows10.log | wc -l

Looks like this particular fixme is indeed only present when launching the game in Windows 10 mode.

The sound issue appears to be resolved with the latest version of the game and the latest proton experimental.
