Flatout 3: Chaos and Destruction (201510)

[Simmonz]

I tried running Flatout 3: Chaos and Destruction (201510) through Proton but it gives a black screen for a second and then crashes at launch. The Steam AppID of the game is 201510. I added PROTON_LOG=1 %command% to the game's launch options and received the following log:

steam-201510.log

I have checked whether there are updates for my system available and I am up to date

Missing HLSL compilder support. You might want to try native d3dcompiler via protontricks

Game starts up after installing the following with protontricks:

protontricks 201510 d3dx10_43 protontricks 201510 d3dcompiler_43 protontricks 201510 d3dcompiler_47

But stucks in the loading screen.

I killed the game after a bit after it did not load.

Update1: Start if you disable esync: PROTON_NO_ESYNC=1 %command%

The game starts, but the text is non visible

Update2: installing corefonts does not solve the problem. New log: steam-201510.log

I'm watching just a blackscreen about 1-2 seconds, and then game is crashing

The game now displays graphics properly after a recent DXVK fix, however disabling Esync and Fsync is still required to get the game to not freeze at the loading screen.

With PROTON_NO_ESYNC=1 PROTON_NO_FSYNC=1 %command% the game runs correctly. Here is my log without those variables.

The game needs d3dcompiler_47 and the DirectX redistributeable included with the game installs that, however the game doesn't include a installscript.vdf to install it as a first run dependency. This launch option workaround seems to correct that.

Game seems to work after some recent updates and using Proton Experimental bleeding edge, however actually getting into a race broke my steam decks audio with a loud pop and I had to restart to get my audio working again.

I was able to repro the audio issue on steamos stable but not on steamos beta 3.6.9 where the pop plays at the start of the race but the audio is not lost. Worth noting that the music doesn't currently play during races, but SFX do.
