Bully: Scholarship Edition

Fun game. Just a bit annoying to get set-up

Launch Flags:Use Wine D3D

Use "PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 %command%" as a launch option to fix the black screen

Performance:Slight Performance Problems

Stutters at points when the camera teleports between locations, otherwise runs smooth

Significant Bugs:

You have to force close the game and re-open it every time you make a single change to your graphics options

Proton 7.0-4

Crime Boss: Rockay City

No sound + Shooting guns freezes the game

Installs:Yes

Opens:Yes

Starts Play:No

As of update v9.5, the game sound suddenly stops when about 50% through the shaders loader. This issue can be fixed by disabling all other sound outputs other than the one you wish to use.

On a game-breaking note: Shooting any gun freezes the game. The more/faster you shoot, the worse the effect - to the point of the game completely locking up.

DX12 causes game freezes when shooting

Tinker Steps:Other

Switch to the "advanced - Advanced options" Beta tree in the game's properties

After having a chat with a developer on Discord, they said that the default EXE forces the use of DX12, which seems to be having trouble running the game under Proton. They mentioned that the "advanced - Advanced options" Beta option does not force DX12 and will default to DX11. Switch to that and the freezing should be fixed on the latest version.

DOOM

Runs pretty much perfectly

Graphics:Minor Artifacts

On one instance the textures began to flicker and corrupt, although this occurred after I changed some graphics settings. A restart fixed this. I am sure this issue would have happened on Windows as well though.

DOOM Eternal

Ran perfectly out of the box

After a few weeks, the game displayed a black screen when opening. Validating didn't work, but a re-install fixed the issue.

This issue appeared to occur around the time I switched my rendering backend for KDE. Could be coincidence though.

Tinker Steps:protontricks

Attempted to run the C++ runtime installed with protontricks. This did not appear to work.

► Multiplayer

Overall (online):Excellent

The game does not install the C++ runtime out of the box, you must install it manually. I tried using protontricks to install it, but it did not work in my case. My workaround is as follows:

Download the C++ runtime installer exe from Microsoft
Open your PAYDAY 3 game files
Rename the game exe to something else temporarily (Remember the original name of the game exe)
Paste the C++ runtime installer into the game directory and name it after the original game exe name
Run PAYDAY 3 from Steam and go through the installer
Delete the C++ installer and rename the game exe back to its original name.
