@kisak-valve I see (https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32515) refers to this game as well. So perhaps #753 ?
Anyway to confirm it is the same issue?
EDIT: Added steam-55150.log

A DRM issue, perhaps?
It will be usefull to have a list of all games with Steam CEG DRM and try them all. If none of them works, then Steam CEG is the problem here and must be solved by Valve.
I'm too.

So interesting... Can you upload this file to something at cloud storages?
Hello @LonFas, sharing game binaries on Github is not a good idea. Give https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/530#issuecomment-431513884 a read for a CEG workaround.

Thanks, i try this variant after work 馃槒
@LonFas a simple search should be able to find you a copy.
I found it out after reading throught the reports on ProtonDB

still does not work on latest proton (4.11-5)
Hello,
I am not able to open the game running Proton-4.11-7. I will attach the log below, and keep hunting around for work-arounds in the mean time.
steam-55150.log
I have since managed to get this working by replacing the SpaceMarine.exe file.
It works but it crashes after the 10th mission, after placing a power source in a machine. You go up an elevator and the game crashes (something that does not happen in Windows). Should I open a new issue about that? (I'm not sure how this github thing works)
@dropestein no, Proton uses 1 issue per non-supported game. Also (in my opinion) you should not open any issues about illegal versions of games, they will not be supported.
It is best to write an email to the developer and ask to support Proton. Fixing Proton issues in a Windows-only game is not something new, see No Man's Sky, Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem.

No, I mean, I have the game legally purchased on Steam. I just used that fix so I can play it in Linux too as other users here suggested. I thought that maybe that information about a crash within the game could be useful, because several people have been marking it as playable in ProtonDB because of that "fix". But, ok, I understand that at this point this is a problem from the developer then. Thanks!
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine text not displaying correctly
Issue transferred from https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/4127.
@JordanPlayz158 posted on 2020-08-09T01:42:00:
The text is messed up (I believe due to corefonts being missing and if I am correct how would I install corefonts into proton manually because iirc there are reasons (licensing issues) for why proton can't include corefonts in the proton files) (See attached image for visual of messed up text)

Install Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine
Run it under Proton 5.0-9
Hey, @JordanPlayz158 What did you do for to make this game work?
Is a CEG infected game.. Games with CEG don't work via Proton.
@CSahajdacny oh yeah I forgot to mention, I am doing what the people on ProtonDB said which is get a cracked exe of SpaceMarine.exe (before you ask, no I didn't pirate it, you can check my steam library (i didn't think anyone was gonna ask but just putting that as a precautionary measure))

It's an unofficial patch.
Sadly it's unofficial but it's the best thing we got so far but as I asked, does anyone know if you can install corefonts into proton to fix the messed up text?
