in Fedora 43 using Gnome, even though Fullscreen is selected, gnome bar above is visible and it looks like the Monitor resolution gets a margin of the gnome bar above.

Workaround: Use gnome extension "hide top bar" to fix the issue and automatically hide the top bar when launching the game.

ASUS-TUF-Gaming-F15-FX506HC-FX506HC, kernel 6.8.0-87-generic #88~22.04.1-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Tue Oct 14 14:03:14 UTC 2 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux (This is the result from uname -a in my device). Worked perfectly in proton 9.0, but in proton GE or experimental, screen isn't fully covered and a bit shifted, when using an external monitor. laptop and external monitors are both 1920x1080, with the external monitor being 24 inch (which is irrelevant i suppose). Not sure if an Xorgs issue, because I tried fixing coordinates to 0,0, setting the external monitor to the left, and set my external monitor to primary.

Sadly on top of the slight stutters, now the game consistently hard crashes when entering the new Nine Mortal Ways underground city. I’ve tried using the Lite version instead of the Steam one but it did not help. Since it works on Android, this seems likely to be a Linux/Proton-specific issue

I am playing Where Winds Meet Lite version from steam as non-steam game from both Steam and Heroic game launcher

I tried Proton-cachyos, Proton-Experimental, and Proton-GE.

only proton-ge had the minimum loading time. but other proton version had really long time loading screen (nearly minitue and a half) it is like i am playing the game from HDD if proton-cachyos and experimental is selected.

but with proton-GE game behaves like Normal like it should be on SSD. but proton-GE and experimental has a little bit of stutter which is annoying some how but with proton-cachyos not stutter it is smooth.

• Proton-Cachyos (game loads slow like it's on HDD but it is smooth no stutter)
• Proton-Experimental (game loads slow like it's on HDD and has stutter )
• Poton-GE (game loads faster has stutter sometimes)

There is a work around for that.

Switch to DX 11 and finish the 9mw mistveil city.

Seems like some dx12 -> AMD issue.

There were AMD users in windows reporting similar issue in reddit.

I checked my kernel logs, and the amd driver was timing out when i enter and crash.

Hey, I gave WWM a try and hit an issue with video playbacks. I tried Proton Experimental and GE both, DirectX11 and 12, result was always the same. Game runs well, but anytime video playback appears (skill preview, cutscene, main menu background) it turns into slideshow or stops working altogether.

Game: Where Winds Meet (3564740)
Symptom: All video playback (cutscenes, menus, skill previews) black or ~1fps; gameplay itself is fine
Likely Cause: D3D11VideoDevice::GetVideoDecoderProfileCount returns stub, CCVideoPlayer's hardware decode path fails
GPU: Nvidia 580.126.09 (both open and proprietary modules tested)
Proton: Experimental and GE-Proton 10-32 both affected
Distro: Ubuntu 24.04, X11

Hi @Kalmy0 . Can you add the full proton logs. It would help to debug.

Hi, one log using Proton Experimental, one GE Proton 10-32. I started the game, continued with autosave directly at cutscene after tutorial, let it load, let it run a bit (black screen or occasional frame + audio) and closed the game.

@Kalmy0 can you try adding this VKD3D_CONFIG=force_raw_va_cbv %command% in your launch option and check if it helps?

Also, may I know your PC specs? If its a lap model would help too.

@SolarWings I tried the launch option, behavior is the same. Attaching log from attempt, and also PC specs, its desktop.

I'm playing the same version and having a similar issue.

GE-Proton 10-x: loading times are normal (from the moment I click Play on Steam, the game starts within a minute), but as soon as the game loads, all the game assets on the screen pop into existence like one by one (and the textures after that), like it takes literally around 10 seconds to generate the world. FPS stays around 20 to 30 with massive stutters. Enabling/disabling FSR pretty much doesn't affect performance (but it clearly changes the resolution if I mess around with the quality, so it's theoretically working)

Proton 10-4: loading times are very long; takes around 2 to 3 minutes for the game to start after I click Play. The assets don't pop into existence one by one like GE-Proton, but the performance is just as bad: 20 to 30 fps and massive stutters. Each loading screen takes very long: up to 30s depending on the area. Same thing with FSR as GE-Proton.

Proton Experimental: loading times are extremely long: takes around 3 minutes for the game to start, not that much longer than Proton stable. Using FSR I get very good fps even in Kaifeng (I capped it at 60 and have only very occasional drops to around 50), but each loading screen lasts super long: 30s to a full minute. Feels like the game is loading from a HDD.

My guess is that these lines may correlate to the issue (but it's just that a guess):

fixme:mountmgr:harddisk_ioctl IOCTL_VOLUME_GET_VOLUME_DISK_EXTENTS semi-stub
12825.392:0050:fixme:mountmgr:query_property Unsupported property 0x8

It's worthy to note that this issue only started happening after either the game's last patch (20th of march) or the one before (13th of march). Before that, the game was playing completely normal on all versions, but GE performed exceptionally good.

Just tried running it with DW-Proton 10-22 and the game worked flawlessly. Performance was normal (running steadily capped at 60fps), and indeed the above lines are different now:

18928.652:0050:fixme:mountmgr:harddisk_ioctl IOCTL_VOLUME_GET_VOLUME_DISK_EXTENTS semi-stub.
18928.657:0050:fixme:mountmgr:query_property Faking StorageDeviceTrimProperty data. 

I'm also attaching the log from DW-Proton.

There is a regression from Proton 10 -> 11, the loading screens in 11 now get semi-stuck in the final stages, adding about 15-30 seconds to the loading time. It's fine on Proton 10, takes a reasonable amount of time. I'm running both with NTSync enabled.

For context, the loading screens occur whenever you teleport, and normally take about 10-15 seconds. Sometimes during normal gameplay this can be quite frequent e.g. once every 2 minutes, so this regression can basically force you to waste up to 25% of your gaming time.

Confirmed proton 11 regression about loading times. No loading time issue existed in proton 10...delayed loading on proton 11 official and proton experimental

I don't know if this is the right place to report this, please point me if not. I am new to immutable.

It seems that Fedora Kinoite 44.20260807.0 (f1e6f1d8dcabe43b64b8e3506fdafdff22f645ded4257b0c72570161a2bbb539) breaks all the above-mentioned versions rendering the game entirely unplayable with multi-minute loads, one-by-one asset loading, missing assets, near-zero fps (or the window not opening at all despite not being crashed from steam's perspective). This is compared to 44.20260805.0 (5f1f820ce1c45f75354c96f6af998cc523bd96e39dbce726a15b011dfe4b547e), which has worked fine for me just yesterday. I have booted into the previous version and (on the SSD still) the previous mostly-working-fine behavior returned.

edit: i rebased to bazzite and works fine so good enough to me

Confirmed the long load time problem seems to only exist in the new Mohist City area. I teleported all around the world with proton experimental and the load time was only slow specifically in most parts of that zone. Strangely, GE-Proton10-34 does not have any load time problem in any zone. All GE-Proton versions11-1 and later do have the same load time problem in that zone though.

@infinity0 were you playing on the CN server? If so, I believe you had access to Mohist City way before global server which is why you noticed the problem sooner than anyone else

new WWM just dropped and fixed the loading times in Mohist City zone.
