Proton: Banished (242920)

[juliotux]

Banished is working perfectly via Proton. This game is (I think) in OpenGL. It should be whitelisted.

Hello @juliotux, please copy your system information from steam (Steam -> Help -> System Information) and put it in a gist, then include a link to the gist in this issue report.

[qqwa]

When Banished runs in fullscreen it will result in a black screen when the mouse leaves the window. i3wm and dual monitor setup. Haven't tried with a non tiling window manager. Works fine in window mode though.

Audio doesn't work here. The game is completely silent.

[jackfms]

Played for about 45 minutes, and worked well for me. No issues at all.

Regarding the audio issue @laloch mentioned, the game did indeed start with no audio. Toggled output source and then back to primary, and audio started. Probably a bug with Pulse.

... , the game did indeed start with no audio. Toggled output source and then back to primary, and audio started.

Can't confirm. Pulseaudio shows an active source, but the game stays silent no matter what I do with the source.

[juliotux]

Looks like that, for some users, xact is needed, as reported in the community driven survey.

[Gfurst]

Same for me, looks to work perfectly graphically, even better than on windows since fps spiked up so fast, tried it in the past with wine and had several issues. But still no sound, what is this about needing xact and how do we get it?

[qqwa]

Just noticed that it had indeed no sound... xact fixed it.
@Gfurst You need to run this command:
WINEPREFIX=$HOME/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/242920/pfx winetricks xact

[Gfurst]

You're right, thanks worked well, however a little strange issue, sound only seems to be coming out on one side of the stereo. And also worth noting, the compatdata folder is relative to steam library.

[vpklotar]

Can confirm @qqwa solution. Running a pretty clean installation of Antergos. Had no audio, ran winetricks and installed xact and now have audio. Thank you!

[Gfurst]

Oh and let me correct myself too, I said that there was only audio on one side, I think it was actually just a bad connection on the cable, so forget about that.

[stratus-ss]

Doesn't work on Arch 64-bit. I get an error message with Proton 3.7-4 Beta

A fatal error has occurred and the application cannot continue.

InputDevice: The application failed to create a DirectInput interface

I get this error whether or not I have used the WINEPREFEX with xact or not

[laloch]

@stratus-ss: Works for me on Arch 64-bit. I have only two issues with the game: 1) it needs manual installation of xact in order for the audio to work. 2) Proton can't handle screen resolution changes at all.

[cRaZy-bisCuiT]

Runs perfectly fine with Arch & x64 using ...
WINEPREFIX=$HOME/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/242920/pfx winetricks xact
... like qqwa described.

I deleted the game and am redownloading it right now. Not sure exactly what the problem is

EDIT: nope same problem on a fresh uninstall/reinstall of banished:

```A fatal error has occurred and the application cannot continue.

InputDevice: The application failed to create a DirectInput interface

I see this in the logs now though

[stratus-ss]

I was able to get this working on a laptop with Optimus graphics (gtx 1050)

I did have to do

protontricks 242920 xact

So I am not sure what is the difference between the two systems. They are both running Arch from the same repos...

[nstgc]

I only played a few minutes, but so far it runs perfectly. For what its worth, I've never had trouble with this game. Meaning perfect out of the box.

[cRaZy-bisCuiT]

...still it's a shame the guy cancelled the native port. He wrote his own engine - props for that! Still it wouldn't have been so much trouble if he would have used SDL. :'/

[stratus-ss]

So I dont get a CTD anymore with protno 3.7-5. I haven't played long enough to comment on stability just noted that the game doesnt crash immediately for me anymore

[ghamlin219]

I tried the WINEPREFIX solution mentioned above to no avail, ended up finding protontricks that stratus mentioned on github soon after.

Here is what worked for me:

Fetch protontricks from github and mark executable

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Sirmentio/protontricks/master/protontricks && chmod +x protontricks

move protontricks to /usr/bin so it can be ran from terminal

sudo mv protontricks /usr/bin/protontricks

setup xact for banished on steam

protontricks 242920 xact

run winecfg for banished prefix using protontricks

protontricks 242920 winecfg

click on libraries and add xact and xaudio2_7, leave them with native, builtin

this is with Ubuntu 18.04, WINEPREFIX solutions did not work for me in this case, but this did.

[NoXPhasma]

With Proton 3.16-5 and FAudio Banished now crashes on main menu. @flibitijibibo

[flibitijibibo]

Sounds about right - try a build with FFmpeg enabled:

https://github.com/FNA-XNA/FAudio/wiki/FAudio-for-Proton

[NoXPhasma]

My distribution does not offer SDL 2.0.9, only SDL 2.0.8.

[kisak-valve]

Possible line of interest: INFO: Assertion failed: 0 && "xWMA is not supported!"

[NoXPhasma]

So, I was able to build FAudio with ffmpeg, but with SDL 2.0.8, so no idea if that is a problem. Anyway, Banished doesn't crash, connects to pulseaudio but doesn't play any audio.

steam-242920.log

[NoXPhasma]

So, I build FAudio again, now with debug and set FAUDIO_LOG_ERRORS=1 to the launch parameters. Now I get this error message:

```INFO: ERROR: WMAv2 codec not supported!
WARN:

Assertion failure at FAudio_FFMPEG_init (/home/noxp/build/FAudio/src/FAudio_ffmpeg.c:83), triggered 1 time:

[steam-242920.log](https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/files/2669553/steam-242920.log)

I have no idea why it says that ffmpeg would not support wmav2, when it is clearly in the list of codecs:

$ ffmpeg -codecs | grep wma
D.A..S wmalossless Windows Media Audio Lossless
D.A.L. wmapro Windows Media Audio 9 Professional

```

[flibitijibibo]

Seems there's a problem with your libavcodec, here's the line that's troublesome:

https://github.com/FNA-XNA/FAudio/blob/master/src/FAudio_ffmpeg.c#L75

[NoXPhasma]

As I wrote, this is the official package of Ubuntu 18.04. Of course I could build ffmpeg on my own, but this won't help anyone beside me. Also this is the output of the build config of ffmpeg:

[flibitijibibo]

Maybe the Steam runtime is causing a problem - if they ship their own libavcodec that's likely getting priority over what's on your system.

[NoXPhasma]

That could be the reason, the Steam Runtime ships libavcodec indeed. However, because of ancient libs the Steam client needs, I can't run it without Steam runtime.

[flibitijibibo]

There's a way to pin certain libraries to avoid this, but I don't entirely remember what the process is... a brute-force method would be to simply delete the FFmpeg files from the runtime directories. I don't know what depends on those files though, so maybe keep backups just in case.

[kisak-valve]

You can add a symlinks to what you need in <steam dir>/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/pinned_libs_* and if there's a problem you can delete the pinned_libs_* folders and Steam will regenerate the folder on the next start.

[NoXPhasma]

I moved all libva* files from the steam-runtime/amd64/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu folder, without success. I still get the same error message.

[juliotux]

3.16-6 game works again, but no sound again.

[NoXPhasma]

By the size of the libFAudio.so I guess it's build with FFMpeg support this time. But is still unable to use the wma codec.

[flibitijibibo]

FFmpeg support still isn’t built in, you’ll still have to rebuild. You can verify this with ldd.

[NoXPhasma]

Okay.

I've built latest FAudio again with ffmpeg and debug, this is what it says now:

[NoXPhasma]

After I've installed this FFMPEG 4 PPA and build FAudio with FFMPEG support against it, audio works!

At least music and environment audio works. UI audio still won't work.

[peterson432]

I haven't played long enough to comment on stability just noted that the game doesn't crash immediately, it works fine on architecture 64 Bit.

[kaimast]

Audio still does not work for me with the most recent proton.

Also the performance is pretty bad, but that's probably because the game is not optimized that well ?

@kisak-valve thanks for super fast reply :+1:
Here is the system info: https://gist.github.com/klemenoslaj/abc726dd235671a9c4d574f37e5a21f9

I have to mention as well that on a newer linux machine everything works as a charm with Manjaro Linux as well. Could be old hardware, I can't say.

[kisak-valve]

So, the Intel Sandybridge generation GPU in your system does not support Vulkan.

You can try adding PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 %command% to the game's launch options to tell Proton to use the DirectX to OpenGL render path, but this considered unsupported and comes with a significant performance penalty.

With the options provided it indeed works, thanks a lot. To my surprise it even appears to be playable.
