Symptoms

• ARK Park doesn't start. Actually, it loads for a while, briefly flashes the VR screen black, then gets off the VR device, and keeps loading for a few minutes until it stops. Meanwhile the monitor screen is black. It generates a 1.3 GB steam-529910.log file, which I had to split in separate chunks to be able to upload.

Reproduction

• Just run the game.

OBS.: tried with fsync/esync on as by default, and this way, with both fsync and esync off, which generated the log. The results are the same.

Tried with Proton 5.0-10, 4.11-13, Experimental, GE 6.1, result is the same. Game does not run.

But it often happens that in the monitor screen it presents a "Fatal Error!" dialogue, with no further details.

This should hopefully work with the latest Experimental release (experimental-5.13-20210302).

Thanks for the info. I have refunded the game but I will eventually get back to it.

Just for the record, now I finally bought Ark Park again and it works perfectly under Proton Experimental. Not a single hiccup!
