Final Fantasy VII (39140)

[adrianlshaw]

Works flawlessly.

Specs: Proton 3.7-3, Ubuntu 18.04, NVIDIA Corporation G94GL [Quadro FX 1800] (rev a1)

[ben914]

Works flawlessly for me as well on Linux Mint 19/Nvidia GTX 1080. My steam_systeminfo.txt

[Zero86Sk]

I can conform FF VII works for me too.

[captbrogers]

I just tested it on Arch Linux using a Steam controller. Worked without a hitch.

My system info from the Steam client.

[andrebadaia]

Confirmed.

Distro: Linux Mint 19 Tara Processor: AMD Ryzen 7 1700 GPU: GTX 1070, Nvidia proprietary driver 396.54 RAM: 32GB Kernel (custom) - 4.17.14 (optimized for Ryzen) Resolution: 1920x1080 Proton 3.7-3

[kode54]

Also works great on Kubuntu 18.04.1 with AMDGPU/RadeonSI.

Black screen after the transition screen to the first battle (and any another battle). Don't you have this problem ? @nvidiausers

Archlinux 64bit up to date with esync limit modified Intel I7 4770k GTX 980 (396.54.05 but does the same on the stable one) Proton 3.7-6

Game works flawlessly.

[dearlygparted]

Game worked perfectly for me... with mouse and keyboard; it wouldn't detect my Xbox 360 controller though (possibly related to #1549).

https://gist.github.com/dearlygparted/d970f00749734326bc332cdebfb90085

[kode54]

It detected my Steam Controller.

[Zero86Sk]

Xbox one controler works fine.

On both Windows and Linux, Its a but too sensitive tho, like pressing A sometimes it goes through multiple menus. And tapping the analog does the same.

[dearlygparted]

In my case, the Xbox 360 wired controller works in Steam BPM, native Steam for Linux games, and even in other Steam Play titles like Kingdom Come: Deliverance (where I also noticed it was too sensitive), but not in FF7.

[elgabo86]

I see that there are people possessing a nvidia card, who manage to run the game without problem. Did you do a special manipulation? I'm now on Arch 64bit, llvm 7, nvidia 410.57 and proton 3.7-7 and always have a black screen after the transition of a battle start.

[bowlofeggs]

I experience a reproducible crash just when the game is about to do the first Chocobo Race in Corel Prison. I am running Steam via Flathub on Fedora 28 with this graphics chip:

I've read that there was a known issue with crashing at the chocobo races with the game many years ago, but theoretically those were fixed with version 1.0.2 and Steam seems to have 1.0.9, so I'm not sure that is relevant.

Just to rule out things, have you tested again with Proton 3.16 beta?

[adrianlshaw]

@bowlofeggs what you are saying sounds like an issue with the game and not an issue with Proton...

Hi Christopher!

I did try that, but the game didn't seem to launch with that version. I didn't spend enough time to collect logs for that, but I'll do that soon.

I'll probably open a separate ticket about that, but I'll link it here.

This is the Steam release. I was also surprised to hit the crash since all the reports about it were from long ago.

Very possible, especially since there were reports of such a crash from long ago. I don't know enough about Wine or Windows to debug it further myself. The game does seem to work great otherwise.

[shoober420]

My theory could be it has something to do with the integrated Intel chipset. Maybe the game was only tested on Nvidia/AMD gpus.

[adrianlshaw]

Time for me to start a new game and get to Corel Prison...

[bowlofeggs]

Hey @adrianlshaw, here is my save file. The first slot is just before the freeze. It's annoying because you have to go through a lot of dialogue and a boss fight, but after that you will be at the scene where you are about to do the chocobo race. It's right when the race is about to start that it crashes on my system.

The second slot I made with Black Chocobo to try to get my game past the crash and who knows if the state of it is OK for the game, haha.

[adrianlshaw]

@bowlofeggs Thanks for that! I dropped your save in the right directory but the game keeps deleting it on startup. I tried making sure that cloud saves were disabled whilst also being offline. Bit strange.

Maybe I can do a speed run from the beginning...

Ah, bummer. I've not tried using savefiles from other systems before, so I have no idea how to advise. Oh well, thanks for trying it out, and enjoy that speed run!

[der-coder]

Game fails on login. Loads the Square Enix login platform, outputting a Network Connection Error. Tested on 3.7-8, 3.7-8 beta, and 3.16-4 beta.

My system info

[adrianlshaw]

I see that there are people possessing a nvidia card, who manage to run the game without problem. Did you do a special manipulation?

@elgabo86 no

[Cxpher]

Game has issues when starting.

Arch Linux. No ESYNC. 2560x1440 resolution.

When the very first battle begins, it consistently crashes with "Unknown exception has occurred".

[kisak-valve]

Hello @Cxpher, please add PROTON_LOG=1 %command% to the game's launch options and drag and drop the generated $HOME/steam-$APPID.log into the comment box.

[Cxpher]

@kisak-valve

Here you go`

steam-39140.log

[kisak-valve]

Just to verify, are you using Proton 3.16-5 beta and not Proton 3.16-4?

[Cxpher]

Yes with 3.16-5 beta. It actually makes some games work better. I'll try with 3.16-4 when i'm home later.

[Cxpher]

Happens with 3.16-4 as well.

@kisak-valve

[adrianlshaw]

I experience a reproducible crash just when the game is about to do the first Chocobo Race in Corel Prison. I am running Steam via Flathub on Fedora 28 with this graphics chip:

Hi @bowlofeggs . So my "speed run" was substantially slowed down by the desire to get Yuffie and complete Fort Condor. I've just finished the Chocobo Race at Coral Prison and didn't encounter and glitches or crashes. I was also playing on a machine with Intel HD graphics like yourself. Anyway, that's my 2 cents.

[bowlofeggs]

Hey @adrianlshaw whoah that's surprising! I did see that there was an update to the game that I think my computer downloaded yesterday or maybe the day before… maybe they fixed it? I'll retry from my save point and see if I can do it now.

BTW, I just completed the game last night, including Emerald Weapon and Ruby Weapon. I haven't played the game since the 90's so it was a lot of fun to play again. The game worked great under Proton outside of that one crash I mentioned earlier. Such fun.

[adrianlshaw]

Oh yeah, you're right, there was a game update. To be clear the update was installed before I got to Coral Prison. The specific graphics chip I have is the Intel® HD Graphics 530. Yes, checking for this bug was such a good excuse to play it again. I have yet to kill the Ruby Weapon.

[Cxpher]

Still crashes after battle sound effects on 3.16-6.

[bowlofeggs]

@adrianlshaw I finally got around to retrying it, and the crash I hit still happens. Pretty odd. The weird part is that it is a crash that used to happen on Windows a long time ago. Oh well, not sure whether I can say it's really a proton issue or not. The rest of the game worked great for me.

[Cxpher]

I see that there are people possessing a nvidia card, who manage to run the game without problem. Did you do a special manipulation? I'm now on Arch 64bit, llvm 7, nvidia 410.57 and proton 3.7-7 and always have a black screen after the transition of a battle start.

It's not a black screen. Game has crashed. There's a window that says exception if you alt+tab out.

Basically the game crashes on any battle. I loaded another save file i had and the moment i get into a battle, you hear the sound and the game crashes.

[kode54]

The battle transition is a framebuffer effect, where it captures the buffer and blends it over itself repeatedly. This should not crash, though. Have you tried 3.16-6? What about Wine Staging?

[Cxpher]

Hi,

Tried with older Proton versions too.

Didn't try with regular wine. It's supposed to work out of the box with Proton with the status it's in.

See latest report on Protondb. I'm not the only one seeing this.

Issue still exists with 3.16-7.

[alasky17]

@Cxpher You said that you tried this with older versions of Proton too? On your machine is this crash specific to the 3.16 branch or is it also present on 3.7-8 or 3.7-8 beta?

[Cxpher]

It crashes with every version the same way. 3.7-8 included. Any resolution. Any combination of proton tweaks or lack thereof.

Game launches and runs fine but any battle effect crashes it.

[adrianlshaw]

Game has issues when starting. Arch Linux. No ESYNC. 2560x1440 resolution.

Hi @Cxpher can you provide some more info? Like your GPU, window manager type and version, etc. This can be found in Steam Help -> System Information.

[Cxpher]

Hi Adrian,

I'm using Arch Linux with GNOME 3.30.

NVIDIA EVGA GTX 670 FTW GPU with latest NVIDIA Linux drivers available.

Tried with latest proton build too. Same thing.

[zzhiyi]

Intel UHD 630. Tested with 3.16-8beta and 4.2-1. Works fine

[Cxpher]

Still happening on the latest version of proton. 4.2-7.

[ghost]

I have to use Proton 3.7-8 for this game or else graphics would be corrupted in some areas (at least in the beginning of the game where you name Cloud and Barret).

Using Gallium Nine did not help this.

Your Steam controller configuration will conflict with Square's controller input baked into the game. This will lead to two different buttons being pressed when you press a button.

The only solution I have found is to disconnect your controller, start the game, and then reconnect your controller.

I am using the top voted Steam controller layout "Final Fantasy VII DS4 by Ottman", which was automatically selected. This has everything fully binded to keyboard keys, except the left analog stick, which I also bound to the arrow keys.

[adrianlshaw]

Wow, I didn't know there was a patch for 60FPS battles. Nice.

[Arlanthir]

I had the crashes when starting battles and fixed it by moving the game to an ext4 drive (was on NTFS).
