Symptoms

Game opens into a black screen and does not work, though intro sounds and menu music play normally

Note, the game does work using a third party ddraw implementation like cnc-ddraw or dgvoodoo2, but the color palette is completely broken. I have also tried multiple ddraw compat tools (DDrawCompat, DXwrapper, ddpatcher) with fixes for color palette problems but none of them worked

Reproduction

Launch the game without any tweaks

Hello @johng199, we've seen ac_compute_device_uuid's output is based on invalid pci bus info. in your Proton log before at https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/6823#issuecomment-1575488133.

Your system is configured to use AMDVLK with 32 bit Vulkan and mesa/RADV with 64 bit Vulkan. Please adjust your system configuration to either use mesa/RADV or AMDVLK for both render paths and retest.

I've set it to RADV now, problem remains, still black screen when running without any tweaks, and broken colors with dgvoodoo here's the new log steam-549160.log
