Audio missing on all in-game FMVs due to the .wmv file format and may crash or cause the game to hang on launch. Will need to be converted.
PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 %command%
Audio is missing on in-game videos due to .wmv file format. Will cause the game to crash or hang in certain instances. Skipping or removing the videos will bypass the issue on current default Proton.
In GE-Proton, the videos will play as muted and will need the audio converted.
The following script will convert the audio-codec on the .fmv files within the Lost Dimension/Video install directory using ffmpeg. Execute the script within the same directory as the video files.
#!/bin/bash
# Directory containing the .wmv files
directory="."
# Check if ffmpeg is installed
if ! command -v ffmpeg &> /dev/null
then
echo "ffmpeg could not be found. Please install ffmpeg and try again."
exit 1
fi
# Loop through all .wmv files in the specified directory
for file in "$directory"/*.wmv; do
if [ -f "$file" ]; then
# Get the filename without extension
filename=$(basename "$file" .wmv)
# Use ffmpeg to transcode audio to opus and keep video as is
ffmpeg -i "$file" -c:v copy -c:a libopus "$file".mkv
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
echo "Successfully transcoded $file to ${filename}.wmv"
mv $file.mkv $file
else
echo "Failed to transcode $file"
fi
fi
done

Works properly for me including cutscenes when using this option.
I can't pass to main menu. And there is a flickering mouse icon.
Very loud crackling on videos, turn your sound down with headphones or pay the price.
Crashed upon exit
No videos play.
Tried the launch steps and GE29, terrible flickering. The one time I managed to make it past the cutscenes it was a frozen flickering mess.
Would love to know how others got this to work and would be so happy with a working workaround.
Crashes/hangs before the opening logos
Loud crackling during FMV cutscenes
FMV-cutscenes not working
mv Video(,~}; %command%; mv Video{~,}
Need to rename the Video folder to skip opening movies that hang the game. That's what the launch option is for.
Not work on deck. Not with the default proton, not with the GE.
Black screen after little loading.
Game gets to initial menu, then crashes.
Used Proton 6.3.4, and all the 6.X-GEs
Only issue is the opening movie won't play. You'll hear a crackle sound, but just wait for a minute and you'll see the title screen. Game plays just as well as it does on Windows from there.
None of the launch options work. PROTON_USE_WINED3D11=1 %command% PROTON_NO_D3D11=1 %command% PROTON_NO_ESYNC=1 %command%. The following message appears, ProphetLite.cpp(76):XA2FAIL 0x800401f0
