Symptoms

The game installs and launches, but it will only show a blackscreen. It uses one CPU Core on 100% but even if I let it run for 20min the game still will not start properly.

I tried different kernel versions: 6.1.1-1,6.0.15-1,5.17.15-1. I also tried using wayland and x11 and looked for missing 32bit vulkan drivers but all that did not change anything:

Hello. According to your pacman output it looks like you have amdvlk installed while the recommended amd gaming driver for proton is radv. You also seem to have intel vulkan installed.

I would try to uninstall amdvlk lib32-amdvlk amdvlk and intel lib32-vulkan-intel vulkan-intel and then make sure both radv drivers are installed lib32-vulkan-radeon vulkan-radeon

[jonathanschad]

Thank you for your help. Installing lib32-vulkan-radeon vulkan-radeon help. I also uninstalled the intel drivers but uninstalling lib32-amdvlk caused the game to not launch at all. After reinstalling and rebooting the game now works without a flaw

Hi! I'm assuming that, as for other games, I should keeps using the same issue rather than opening a new one.

On current Proton Experimental (both bleeding edge and standard), Keyboard input stops working after the first text field (so at first start, when prompted to create your manager, I can only give the first name, not the family name). This is a regression from 8.0-2, which seems to work just fine.

OS: Ubuntu 23.04 (Lunar Lobster) Kernel: 6.2.0-23-generic CPU: AMD 5900X GPU: NVidia 3080 RTX (driver 530.41.03-0ubuntu2) Desktop: Gnome, using X11

@laarmen Thank you for the report. The regression was identified and have received a fix which is live on Bleeding Edge now.

Just tried it out, the fix is working for me. Thanks for the quick reaction!
