Hello @BernhardMayrhofer, err:module:import_dll Library OpenAL32.dll (which is needed by L"Z:\\var\\home\\user\\.local\\share\\Steam\\steamapps\\common\\soul Interface\\int_x64.exe") not found looks like the line of interest from your log.

Upstream wine de-bundled OpenAL a while ago and Proton followed the upstream change. The game dev(s) should provide an OpenAL redist installer as part of the game's first run setup.

Having written that, it might be interesting to test how the game behaves with Proton 7.0-6.

Howdy, I'm unsure if I should be creating a new issue or not, but I figured it's relevant here.

(Essentially a Steam Deck OLED.)

I confirm:

  • [x] that I have found an existing compatibility report for this game.
  • [x] that I have checked whether there are updates for my system available.

steam-2878890-7.0-6.log

Symptoms

The game will boot to a black screen and be fully unresponsive until the user manually ends the process.

Reproduction

  • Run the game for the first time and be greeted by the OpenAL installer.
  • Click OK and allow the installer to setup OpenAL.
  • Wait for the game to boot up.
  • Be greeted by an unresponsive black screen.

Hopefully this helps.

I tried 7.0-6 as well, could not start the sim.
