thcrap_proton -- %command%
Courtesy of https://github.com/tactikauan/thcrap-steam-proton-wrapper, works fine with translations. Runs just fine without them too.
You may need to install couple multilib(lib32) repo packages depending on your hardware.
Play the game in borderless and disable your compositor
Vanilla Proton and Wine have bad resampling, causing the SFX audio to be muffled and crackled. Use Lutris's Wine build or the latest Proton GE versions
Depending on the version and fork of Wine/Proton you use, fullscreen might or might not fully fill your screen. Same for borderless, but more likely to work.
When playing in fullscreen, the game freezes and turns into a black screen if you alt tab. Play in borderless (remember to turn off your desktop's compositor for good latency).
If you use Lutris Proton GE, do not use version 13. In this version, your mouse will disappear every time you close the game.
When playing in fullscreen, the game freezes and turns into a black screen if you alt tab. Play in borderless (remember to turn off your desktop's compositor for good latency).
Dialogue text is too bold and thick, but still clear and readable. Only affects the dialogue text during a playrun, and not anywhere else.
Use Lutris's Wine and Proton GE builds to fix the muffled SFX audio (idk if the original Proton GE builds fix it too). Do not use Lutris Proton GE version 13 (other versions are fine) because it hides your desktop mouse after closing the game. As for the bold text bug, the fullscreen alt-tab issues and other windowing issues, I found no solution.
Other than that, the game runs well without performance issues, crashing or bad input delay.
thcrap_proton -- %command%
The window is always in focus so you can't Alt-Tab normally, you have to minimize it instead.
This doesn't happen in the unmodified game, only with the translation tool: the thcrap process still runs after exiting the game, so you have to manually shut the game down in Steam or kill the process.
I used this to make thcrap work: https://github.com/tactikauan/thcrap-steam-proton-wrapper
The dialogue text is very bold/thick but still clear and readable
As of now I played enough time to clear all characters until Aunn, and the game has absolutely no issues and runs very well, except for the fact that the dialogue text is bolder/thicker than what it was supposed to be.
I'm using Lutris's Proton GE to play safe. In the past, Touhou games would have their SFX very muffled due to bad resampling from Wine and vanilla Proton. Lutris's builds of Wine/Proton fix this. Proton GE used to ruin controller support in the past, but it doesn't happen anymore (at least to me).
Works like a charm, as always.
It's Touhou, not much to say here.
DXVK_FRAME_RATE=60 %command%
If you see unusual high fps (which will make the game too fast to play), edit the launch option to limit fps to 60
Not sure if its the game or proton but the background scrolling textures frequently stop abruptly https://steamcommunity.com/id/myonfriend/screenshot/2000213801959701078/
