The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit used Denuvo DRM, crash is probably related to that

@BrandonDyer64 Not tested _Proton_ but can confirm Captain Spirit functions as expected on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (x64) with Wine Staging 3.14 and DXVK 0.70:

Steam System Information

Additionally used:

• winetricks corefonts directx9 vcrun2015 win7
• export WINEDLLOVERRIDES="msdmo=b"

Hope that helps.

Proton Version 3.16-3 Beta

https://gist.github.com/lucifertdark/584c14275612e8e3c4a8070d428d8a02

used winetricks corefonts directx9 vcrun2015 win7

steam-845070.log
I also added a few dll overrides to get the game to actually run, but it crashes either on the menu, when clicking on the settings button or during the first cut scene.

dll overrides: msdmo, builtin. Steam_api64, Native. x3daudio1_7, Native. xapofx1_3 & xapofx1_7 both Native. Without those overrides the game doesn't even start.

[Amosar]

I have this error when I try to launch the game, I have installed xact and disable nvapi on the prefix
And the game crash randomly
Unhandled exception: unimplemented function lsteamclient.dll.Steam_ReleaseThreadLocalMemory called in 64-bit code (0x000000007b44b08c).

[tannisroot]

I can’t reproduce the issue with Proton 3.16.-4. Can anyone else confirm that it has been resolved?

[michael-n0813]

Can confirm, working for me! yay.

[popsUlfr]

Works out of the box for me as well.
System information : https://gist.github.com/popsUlfr/96adac7690c83232b65b1d4a2ed83aa4

Does it need xact installed for proper spatial sound and volume changes ?

[HonkingGoose]

To label or not to label, that's the question:

Hi @flibitijibibo: Is this an issue you want to label XAudio2?

There are references to XAudio2_7.dll and x3daudio1_7 in my Proton log.
But: I just played trough the game and noticed no weird things sound-wise.
So maybe the Proton built-in audio handler is good enough here?

In-game sound test report:

I played trough the entire game "out of the box", on the Proton 3.16-4 Beta, with Steam Beta.
Sound-wise:

• There were sounds where you would expect them.
• Music in-game played as expected.
• Character voice-lines all played.
• I can't comment on surround sound or volume changes.

If it works already, that's good, we'll just need to use this as a regression test.

[Leopard1907]

Game needs a similar work done for Dirt 3 Complete Edition on fshack and DXVK in order to go fullscreen by Doitsujin and aeikum.

Proton 3.16-6 Beta - Nvidia 415.27 driver

It is fullscreen at first run , when you go to settings it shows borderless but somehow renders fullscreen. When you change it to fullscreen it becomes windowed, after that change changing it back to borderless still stays on windowed.
