switching to experimental fixed steam overlay

gamemoderun %command%
I only ran it for about 5 minutes because I dont know how to play the game. Mouse, sound, and WSAD movements were all working. My FPS was only 12-16 but that might be just hardware limitations (GPU).
No servers available to join. Hosting a game led to black screen.

It works just fine. I did have one start up error but a relaunch led to no trouble at all.
Played on Envirma with no issues

Works Out of the Box. I played just a little at the time of writing so issues may show up later.
Only played on official servers so far.
Be sure to select the Evrima branch in the Betas tab of the game properties window.

Works great
Make sure your on evrima branch selected in properties/beta/evrima - EVRIMA Public Branch .

Игра работает, но с плохой производительностью FPS и часто Anti cheat не пускает на сервера. Игра может упасть с фатальной ошибкой.
На любых настройках fps-20-30 и даже меньше с просадками и лагами.
При входе на сервера может выдать фатальную ошибку и игра упадет.
Низкий фпс, динозавров дергает от рассинхрона. Anti cheat иногда не пускает на сервера пока не перезапустишь игру.

Game works as expected in most cases, nothing noteworthy came up during my play sessions outside of normal Evrima bugs.
Multiplayer works as expected.
Use Proton GE. Also, you will need to patch Easy Anti-Cheat with Steam's dedicated tool. In Steam -> tools -> Proton EasyAntiCheatRuntime
Game will load but you cannot join any servers on Evrima
RADV_DEBUG=nocompute %command%

Does not run on Evrima still but gives more information
DirectX 12 is not supported on your system. Try running without the -dx12 or -d3d12 command line argument.
I'm not sure how to fix this but its a start

Fatal Error Crash after EAC pops up on Evrima Branch, legacy runs fine but Evrima does not run.
I tried multiple versions of proton and even reinstalled the branch, the only thing I can guess is that the EAC version the game runs off does not have linux support in the current version.

Cant change resolution midgame
Works great, no changes made.

No problems at all with launching the game and joining multiplayer sessions with the launch options.
SteamDeck=1 %command%
A very fun game, looking forward to the full release!

launching doesn't go past EAC splash screen
Game doesn't open, it gives fatal error after the EAC splash screen.

Doesn't get past the initial anti cheat.
Fails before I can get passed the anticheat. I've tried using -dx12 launch command. I've also tried proton 8.0-5 as well.
probrably it is just my hardware, but, it would crash if the settings was maxed with very small dinos

Changed left trackpad and back buttons
Shadows look funny and a bit jumpy.
Lag/FPS spikes/dips when other multiple players enter character modelling range
Updated from my last review. Much more playable now. I'm able to get a stable 30fps which is plenty in my opinion.

The game itself is *playable* just annoying, if the gamer likes dino games, and can ignore the rave party graphics at times anyway
Certain graphics look like a rave is going off, it doesn't affect gameplay much however it does break immersion
Matchmaking/joining servers is unstable, once you are in you are fine but joining a server is rough.
Do not change graphic settings at all, changing graphic settings will cause black screen on server join which only gets fixed by deleting the user settings file.
Joining servers is tedious, it black screens on loading at a 60% probability requiring a game restart. Once the game is joined No issues aside from the graphics based ones listed earlier.
Changing the proton version to 8.0-5 is a hard requirement, the game will not pass the loading screen on anything newer

ran like it does on windows
had to change to proton 8.0.5 and disable in-game overlay. lumen was rainbow colored, so I turned that off.

While using proton 8.0-5 noticed lighting issues turning lights into rainbow strobe. Switching to experimental fixed issues.
No noticed problems during multiplayer specific to linux

Launched and join a server perfectly, Ran around for a bit. Found no errors or glitches. Proton 8.0-5
Legacy funktioniert sehr gut. Evrima hingegen will nicht starten egal welche Proton Version ich auswähle.
-dx12

Not showing Official servers most likely due to AntiCheat
RADV_DEBUG=nocompute %command%
Tried with RADV_DEBUG=nocompute %command% as launch option. Proton 8.0, 9.0, 7.0.6 and experimental. And it desn't show Official servers probably due to anticheat. It shows community servers. With Wine and Bottles, it complains about not connecting to steam online
Tried Proton 7,8,9, Wine, Bottles and launch command RADV_DEBUG=nocompute %command% It shows regular servers fine, but not official ones
Works out of the box for me with Proton 8.0.5.

EAC is Disabled on last compile
I've tried a bunch of 'work arounds' to force EAC to work but as older reports on ProtonDB show that this game has worked in the past I am left to assume: The Developers did not remember to click the enable Linux box this update.
This is an EAC problem, not The Isle.

Installed fine, takes forever to launch, server join blocked by EAC
EVRIMA branch. Multiple runners tried, Proton-6.8-GE-1, Experimental, GE-Proton8-23, GE-Proton8-24, a few random ones in the 5, 6, and 7 series. Also tried RADV_DEBUG=nocompute %command% and removing compatibility folder 376210 as recommended here. It will launch, launch after a VERY long delay, or not launch at all. When it does launch, I can't join a server due to EAC issues. Just reinstalled it, but also tried to verify just in case; it didn't help.

This test was on Evrima (v0.12.52.02)
some artifacts here and there, especially during night time, Nothing to major though very playable
No problems with Anti-Cheat software so far. Keep in mind I only played on official servers so not sure if the community servers works.
Generally nice experience, working like a charm!

On the Envirma beta the game gets stuck on initialization.
The game won't launch and just gets stuck on the first load screen initializing forever.

The Game Runs well at High Settings with a Consistent Framerate and feels very similar to the Windows Experience.
Deleted Compatdata Folder 376210 Prior to Launch
Prior to Performing the Tinker Note of Deleting the Compatdata Folder, the Game was Unable to Connect to Any Official Servers with EAC.
On First Time Startup, the game fails to connect to Official Servers due to an EAC Error. However, Deleting 376210 in the Compatdata Folder Fixed the issue and allowed me to connect

Порой фпс не предсказуем но достаточно производителен для игры. В пределах 35-70
Игра запускается не всегда, порой приходиться делать несколько попыток. В самой игре иногда может зависнуть намертво или выдать ошибку и отключиться.
Динозавр может начать застревать и отбрасывает назад. Но это больше похоже на плохую оптимизацию самой игры.
Отчет по версии игры EVRIMA

RADV_DEBUG=nocompute %command%
Game sometimes fails to load, not sure why yet
Ping on all servers is shown as -1000 in the browser for some reason. Doesn't affect gameplay, and the ping counter in-game displays correctly.
Doesn't launch with AMDVLK or AMDGPU-PRO, and requires a RADV_DEBUG option with Mesa. Definitely playable, but the setup doesn't inspire confidence.

You would be better off running this on almost any PC. Unforturnately, I do not have any and I really like playing as a big dino.
Lighting at dawn and dusk looks weird, not sure if it's a game problem or deck problem.
Controller mapping is weird. Would only currently recommend playing with mouse and keyboard.
Occasional disconnection, but i suspect it's caused by the game and not the deck.
EAC takes some time to install on the first launch without indication it's doing anything. Don't be impatient and let it install.
Launch game in game mode, even if you play with peripherals. Framerate seems more stable that way.
Error Message: Your PC does not support DX12.

Tried different proton versions, 7.0 made to the loading screen. I think game need always re-install if you change proton version.
Not working,

Shader Compilation Error as of Update 6.5
Game is currently unplayable

Evrima branch 6.5 update fails to compile shaders on server join
The 6.5 update is now throwing a fatal shader compilation error when joining a server.
Estou na versão evrima. Tinha funcionado um tempo atrás, agora a tela fica preta não aparece ao menos o Menu.
Já desinstalei e instalei e o erro continua.
I had to force the game with KDE-Windowrules to my Main display otherwise it would jump back to my first screen if I tab out
Probably as bad as on Windows
Seems no different to native
You have to join the Beta Branch in any case(even on Windows I guess)-> Go to Properties of The Isle-> Betas-> select evrima - EVRIMA Public Branch
Also it might be good if you have the EAC Runtime installed via Steam Tools.
I didnt try Default proton but it might also work, if not switch to experimental.
Initially Launches, But Can't Play
I can get to the main menu and set up a session, but as soon as I go to start the session, it goes to a blank black screen wit the menu's background sounds and never goes any further. I verified that Proton EAC was installed, and tried to switch between GE-Proton7-54, older versions, and experimental. All rended the same results. Kind of sad too. Really wanted to try this out.
