Elden Ring can't be launched with CXPATCHER #174

Closed AugustCastles closed 6 months ago

AugustCastles commented 6 months ago

So Elden Ring launches perfectly fine with a fresh install of Crossover, not patched. But oddly when running it on a patched version it crashes on startup with the error:

"The program eldenring.exe has encountered a serious problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvienience" Then below: "This can be caused by a problem in the program or a deficiancy in Wine. You may want to check https://www.codeweavers.com/compatibility for tips about running this application." And show details does nothing.

Im on Crossover 23.7.1 and CXPATCHER V0.4.10. Any help would be appreciated, cheers!

Have you tried to follow the troubleshooting instructions in the release notes?

AugustCastles commented 6 months ago

Yes! I just tried to disable and re-enable some things, and the game runs fine now. Though I still have one more question for reference. It might be dumb but I'm not super inclined with Crossover. If this issue were to happen again, how would I go about manually making a bottle for a Steam game?

Steam gives you the possibility to reference any location for your game library, that's what i do, I keep games in an external HD and steam is the only thing i install in the bottle so that's easy to create a new bottle with just steam installed, and there's no need to reinstall the games just reconfigure steam.

That makes sense, thank you for the help!
