It crashes on start, throwing an error message with a coredump. I sent this to the dev's already, but maybe there is someone who can narrow the issue down to something more specific.

Hello @lieff, @Joinyy, can one of you 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.

DXVK missing D3D10StateBlockMaskEnableAll implementation and then D3D10CreateStateBlock.

Switch to wined3d goes a bit further but still shows a black screen:

doitsujin/dxvk@81821414b0dfd0e429fc506167415ad8c4ca7d01 implements D3D10 state blocks, which are needed by Wine's Direct2D implementation (yes, this game actually uses that). There are more rendering-related issues, I'm working on it.

Edit: @mozo78 doitsujin/dxvk@53aa27336bb6ee3b04f38a4e7d60016c7a4785fa should fix the rendering issues, except the UI font. The UI font is still broken due to Direct2D/DWrite issues.

[mozo78]

Thank you very much doitsujin! I'll try it and I'll report you back.

[mozo78]

Yes it's working fine now. Thank you so much!!!
