define "latest nvidia drivers installed", as in what version specifically?
Is doom installed on a NTFS formatted drive?
By latest nvidia drivers, I mean the latest available in the arch repository which is 396.51-5, and it is installed on an NTFS drive, but I have no problems reading and writing to the game's directory.
Probably not a driver issue.
Does this file exist and can you access it? /home/jonathanprocter/.local/share/Steam/legacycompat/iscriptevaluator.exe
If none of the games work, I recommend that you go into the config of fstab located in /etc, and use as option " ntfs-3g uid=1000,gid=1000,fmask=0000,dmask=0000,exec 0 0" as options and then remount/reboot
@aeikum The file does exist and my user owns the file and has full access.
@thunder1410 I have tried different mount options and that doesn't make any difference, plus the iscriptevaluator.exe is on my main drive which is ext4.
396.54 was released recently which fixes some pretty big issues but may not resolve you problem here.
@a1ph4n3rd Thanks. Is Proton itself installed on the NTFS drive? That's not something we tested, I wonder if it causes issues.
@aeikum yeah, i think it is installed to the NTFS drive
@aeikum I've tried moving proton and its appmanifest to my main ext4 drive then restarting steam, and still no change. I have also tried with other games, but DOOM is the only whitelisted one I've tried, and none of them work
ERROR: ld.so: object '/home/jonathanprocter/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/gameoverlayrenderer.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32): ignored.
I'm getting the same error with fallout shelter.
Arch linux, with mesa-git and llvm-git (vanilla wine-staging works)
EDIT: I swear I don't know what happened - but after a reboot (.-.) everything was working fine
EDIT2: this is probably #114
Have you checked your file descriptor limit (ulimit -n)?
@hdmap its set to 1048576
@mirh The LD_PRELOAD error is harmless and will appear for most games.
@a1ph4n3rd Sorry, I don't have any suggestions and am not set up to test this myself right now :( I can't think why Wine wouldn't be able to find that file. Have you tried restarting Steam and stuff?
@aeikum I think i found the problem.
Proton itself and the wineprefix that it creates for each game using it contains links to directories with names such "c:" and "z:".
The name of those directories violates the name convention of Microsoft as the character ':' is reserved [1]. So, anyone with the default library in a NTFS partition will have this kind of issues, as proton unable to unpack the contents of the dist directory from the proton_dist.tar.gz file, or wine unable to find the executable file (as no c: or z: is actually created under dosdevices in a NTFS filesystem).
A workaround is to create another library inside a linux filesystem, to move the Proton app manually inside it from the NTFS library [2], and to replace the NTFS <steam_library>/steamapps/compatdata directory with a link to you new linux filesystem <steam_library>/steamapps/compatdata
Restart steam and everything should work, at least until the next proton update/reinstallation as it keeps installing itself on the library where it's located the game that use it (the one in the NTFS filesystem).

[2] I think that Proton should be installed in the default library instead of the library where it's located the game that use it. In this way, the user can set the default library in a linux filesystem, so Proton will be installed automatically when needed inside it, while maintaining the games and the rest of the stuff on other (optional) library in a NTFS formatted partition. Also, the compatdata directory should be placed in the library where proton is installed.
So I deleted everything I could find related to proton, and compatdata. Then I disabled steam play and opted out of the beta and started from scratch. Opted back into the beta, re-enabled steam play and it seems to work now. For the record proton and the compatdata directory redownloaded to my ntfs formatted game drive, so I don't really know what the problem was.
@a1ph4n3rd If works for you in your NTFS partition then that partition is not being mounted with the "windows_names" mount option. That way you can use the reserved characters for file and directory names. However, every time you run chkdsk in that filesystem on a Windows OS, those files / directories will probably be deleted or their names will be altered, leaving you a broken proton setup. And sooner or later you will want to repair that filesystem for some reason, so you will face this problem again.
I suggest to reopen this bug until a proper solution is found.
proton 3.7x1 2018-08
Tried running DOOM and it changes to running for about 1 sec then doesn't run. Checking the logs and wine seems to be complaining about not finding files, which I have checked and are there.
I'm running on arch linux with the latest nvidia drivers installed.
