Steam AppID of the game: 377710

System Information

GPU: AMD RENOIR (renoir, LLVM 15.0.7, DRM 3.42, 5.15.0-126-generic)
Video driver version: 4.6 (Compatibility Profile) Mesa 23.2.1-1ubuntu3.1~22.04.2
Kernel version: 5.15-0-126-generic (Ubuntu 22.04.5)
Link to full system information report as Gist: https://gist.github.com/Alcaro/3314998dcbf8b6613a8142c6252ed00b https://gist.github.com/Alcaro/35190d79f99b37ab7e5996e96f131793
Proton version: 9.0-3

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.

Symptoms

The game's main text disappears the second time the game is launched

Reproduction

Start the game
Click Start
"I'm Matsushima Michiru, 14 years old. I'm a second year Junior High student in the bloom of youth."
Restart the game
Click Start
The text is gone

The same bug also reproduces in Config / Text, the box below Text Display Speed.

To return to the functional first-run state, go to .../steam/steamapps/compatdata/377710/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Roaming/Frontwing/Idol Magical Girl Chiru Chiru Michiru (Part 1)/setup.xml and delete either the <faceruby> and <face> lines, or just the entire file.

~The issue is caused by Proton's FreeType being too old. The issue reproduces in various Wine versions with LD_LIBRARY_PATH=.../steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/, and does not reproduce with system FreeType, nor does it reproduce if I set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the sniper or soldier runtimes.~

The issue seems to be FreeType rejecting the font for whatever reason. The symptoms are the same as if using an outdated FreeType, but I can't identify the exact conditions.

(The game is also quite vulnerable to softlocks in Proton 9.0-3, but I fixed those yesterday. https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/6873)

(no, I don't know why the game passes a mojibake font name. The text shows up, don't worry about it)

I've looked into this a bit, and yes, it is a bit older libfreetype fails to load game provided font, that is fixed in freetype version 2.11.1 (.so version 6.18.1) by commit 5b626281f1e6524dd87e3d5d6af795b39a8cc10b. I think this issue will likely wait until Steam runtime is updated to the fixed libfreetype version.
