broken fullscreen, alt tab and keyboard
not sure if the game even has keyboard controls. can't search steam reviews and google is laughably bad these days. but touching keyboard seems to mess up the game and alt+tab and fullscreen don't seem to agree. trying to click after pressing anything on the keyboard seems to work every other click? if the game can't use keyboard that's just a no-go anyway
black screen 2016
someone needs to change this from platinum. platinum is a "it just works" - this is a todd howard "it just works"
black screen for all proton versions except 3.17 as of apr 2021. that screen is a glitchy mess with only a quarter of what should be there. none of the supposed fixed work (vcrun2015, r_renderAPI 0/1/-1, some proton version dont look like they even pass cmd args)
still black screen 2016
even for the ppl who got it working it's NOT PLATINUM. you can't alt-tab or it crashes.
have seen a few references to pulseaudio, apulse does not work. seen something about a newer mesa, but other reports show mesa working. tried newer GE. still nothing, just a black screen.
it doesnt work for a few people for seemingly no reason. steam will add to renderAPI and pass another renderAPI with -2 somehow. passing a mix of args it just goes to black screen on multiple proton versions. how do these games get a plat rating?
Only playable with using nirsoft's "InstalledCodec.exe" to disable "MPEG-i stream splittter". Wine uses the 64 bit gstreamer libraries instead of 32 bit https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1472160
No way to get back from alt-tab. Cannot exit game with bMultiThreadAudio=1
quartz.dll "MPEG-i stream splitter" prevents getting past opening menu most of the time, if the game does launch there is significant audio stuttering l3codec prevents getting to menu
Wine's quartz.dll lags like no other, and as a result of the native quartz.dll being horrible with MPEG-i stream splitter, you can't hear various music (ambient, radio is horrible and causes issues, in the past Agatha's violin and tranquility lane did not work)
Game is still where it was years ago for wine. Which is sad because so many other games, even newer games or things that were black screens like Watch Dogs, run fine now with DXVK.
i have finally got the radio to work in fallout 3 and new vegas!!!
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/974?tab=files&file_id=5396
first i had to extract the sound bsa (fallout 3, new vegas i did not)
then i had to convert the mp3 files to a lower bitrate of 64k
ffmpeg -i mus_billieholiday_crazy.mp3 -codec:a libmp3lame -b:a 64k mus_billieholiday_crazy.64.mp3
made a backup and moved the original files
mv mus_billieholiday_crazy.mp3 mus_billieholiday_crazy.orig.mp3
copy the new 64k bitrate file to where the game is looking
cp mus_billieholiday_crazy.64.mp3 mus_billieholiday_crazy.mp3
and finally remove the sound bsa from the game's .ini load list
sEssentialFileCacheList=Data\Fallout.esm|Data2\Fallout.esm,...
this is not something a normal user should have to do - but it works!
FINALLY! RADIO LIKE WHEN I BOUGHT THE GAME!

"Fatal Error" crash
Nothing else to say really, doesn't run. Seems similar to the RE4r demo so it may be driver related.
Not platinum, barely gold
Like most protondb titles, the rating is a lie. Have to find different versions of proton (glorious eggroll) to even get the thing to launch. Mess with settings to get it to run. Find another version of proton to get past the opening cutscenes (mfplat crap). And even then steam does what it's been doing forever now and ruins gaming. The overlay WILL NOT DISABLE. I think it's because "inventory" is not disable-able and it flicks it back on or something. Tried a couple settings but once something comes up, any cheevo will come up and then massive stutter and fps chugging. How is this even past gold rating? idk...asked for refund...we'll see
Does not run - Fatal D3D Error 1
Didn't work last week and doesn't work now. Game does not run, just launches a box that says "Fatal D3D Error (1)" then the game quits. Tried multiple proton versions (experimental, git from last night, 7.0.6, 7-43 ge 7-50, hotfix). Mesa version doesn't seem to matter. Re-downloaded. Verified files.
I don't get how this is a "gold" rating. These ratings mean nothing anymore. A good number of reports here have setup issues, performance issues or straight doesn't run. Does gold just mean runs the same as Windows? XP
May be my GPU but I didn't swap out to check.
Intel Arc NOT SUPPORTED ON LINUX
TLDR - Intel Arc DOES NOT SUPPORT "sparse" memory in Vulkan, and is what causes the "Fatal D3D error (1)" before the game even gets to a menu. You can not run RE4 with Intel on Linux as of mid 2023.
You can check the git issues and pages but basically they do not have support, and seemingly do not plan to backport support, for the "sparse" Vulkan extensions required to play RE4 Remake. There is a newer Kernel driver, "xe", which will replace the long living "i915" driver for gen11/12+. However they also seemingly have no interest in supporting HuC (read: video codecs or hardware acceleration) in the new driver (which I would assume will affect some type of media/cutscene playback, mfplat or some other headache). There are reports that the new Kernel driver (highly experimental as of writing) and new Mesa (also dev/beta and multiple patches as of writing) will run, but it seems like Intel is either way behind, or not very interested in Linux GPU support.
dev mesa
Mesa 24 will add "vulkan sparse memory" support for Intel Arc cards. Game kind of runs like butt right now though =/
Intel A770 strikes again
-dx11
doesn't run on intel A770...
AMD RX5700 does
force_vk_vendor=-1 -dx11 %command%
every steam game seems to have issues with fullscreen now. non-steam version of the same game will fullscreen fine. but through steam it is not top layer
way slower than amd rx5700, think it's the way intel does indirect draws? saw something about ue5 and intel
1440p is not viable on intel, 1080 may be. ue5 and intel gpu drivers don't work well from what i understand
