No FPS drops using latest Glorious Eggroll. High CPU usage, but I believe it's java based, so that's normal.
Only needed for the first launching of the game. Afterwards, everything works fine.
I created a script on GitHub that installs the Widescreen patch, and Silent Patch, as well as guides you through the process of getting it working. Please forgive my terrible drawing skills :P
No black screen others mentioned using latest Glorious Eggroll. Ran in the terminal: protontricks 2100 winxp , for additional compatibility
Source Engine menu text showed minor double-layering of text; still able to read the items
There's a slight stutter when the effects are created the first time, smooth sailing after. Ran benchmark 10 minutes, seemed solid.
FPS hit due to it being Direct X 10 converting to Vulcan
There's no issues whatsoever unless you have a display of over 1920x1080; and the fix to solve that takes less than 2 minutes.
The only issue with the game is if you have a monitor that's above 1920x1080, where you aren't able to see all the screen real estate. It's an easy work-around to fix, though. If you can see the opening menu enough to change the graphics options, change the resolution to 1920x1080 there. If you can't see it, there's an engine.ini located within the data folder for DuckTales Remastered. Erase everything inside and replace it with:
[window]
width=1920
height=1080
fakeFullScreen=1
fakeFullScreenMonitor=0
The game's story crashes after the third QTE against Scorpian. It does this with 5.0.9, as well as the newest Glorious Eggroll
The game runs perfectly on a source port that's available for download. Link shown https://github.com/iortcw/iortcw/releases
Source port
Most recent Proton's great. Don't use Eggroll, as it has heavy stutter. Crashes that happen do on Windows as well.
Same crashes exist on Windows
It can be done if you get past the original fiddling with the system, but it's a pain to get started and most players won't bother
Set Vista compatibility through protontricks. Use Glorious Eggroll proton-5.9-GE-8-ST
Had to fiddle with alt-tab to find game after it first launched
Slight performance jitters due to shaders not being compiled beforehand. If done beforehand, you'll be fine
