Dying Light 2 (534380) #5542
Comments
I played the game a few hours with my friend, and for some reason his game crashed often while mine worked without any problems. We compared our settings, and the only difference was that he was using Proton Experimental and I was using Proton 6.3-8. When he switched to Proton 6.3-8, his game didn't crash anymore and we were able to play together for hours without any crash. |
I cannot get the game to run at all using my 2060m and the Nvidia 510 drivers. Tried Proton 7.1 GE and Proton 6.3 and Experimental. All result in a black bar for a splash screen, the game comes up in windowed mode (completely black) then it crashes. According to the logs it's a PageFault but the reason why is lost on me. Using the intel igpu in this laptop will get me past the intro cutscene however. Arch Linux Kernel 5.16.5 |
The game runs just fine System info - https://gist.github.com/valters-tomsons/1bf0c73442d59c3465383fb8827ecad0 |
Works well with |
Yes, I want to confirm this. Switching to 7.1-GE-2 fixed Co-Op. We played for hours afterwards without any issues. |
@Meulengracht @l0wl3vel Just wondering, were your co-op partners running on Windows? |
Nope, we were both running experimental, and both switched to GE |
My co-op partners were both running Windows 10. I was hosting the session. |
i experience that same issues with the game crashing almost every 15-30 min, No other proton games does that. i I have tried both Steam Beta, Proton Experimental and the stable version with no luck. both on dx11 and dx12 I have read on forums and on proton DB to find similar users with similar problems and it looks like something that happens more often for Ryzen users not distro specific. Not sure if it is a fact but i looks like it from the amount of comments. i will be happy to provide any details, it is on Ubuntu 20.04 with nvidia 510 drivers. bios on the motherboard have been updated to the newest and have tried many of the proposed steam launch options with no luck |
Seems Proton 7 is much worse. After 20 minutes it gave stuttering to a crawl, then a hard lock up. Proton experimental is still fine. |
@LiamDawe Does the game work with 6.3-8 or does it work well only with experimental-6.3? |
It'd be helpful if you could gather a Proton log showing the issue. It's working well on my AMD desktop machine so far. |
I've run into this issue on my Intel Xeon desktop with an AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT, on Kubuntu 20.04 with Hardware Enablement Stack active. I continued my Dying Light 2 world, had a friend join, and after roughly 15 minutes, the game hung - sounds played, but the video output froze, and I had to forcibly terminate it to exit. Click/tap to show Steam System Information:
And here's my full Proton log with Let me know if there's any other information I can provide or things to test! Also, GloriousEggroll's 7.2-GE-3-test-2 has been working without crashing for an entire hour! Co-op multiplayer disconnects after about half an hour, but the game itself doesn't crash and I can quit to menu, then continue to reconnect multiplayer. (My internet itself seemed stable, Mumble voice chat remained connected, but I'm not 100% certain of that.) |
The game randomly hangs with latest Proton Experimental. With Proton GE 7.2 the game randomly crashed. Hardware: |
As of update 1.3.0 that was released today, the game now crashes for me before displaying anything other than a black window. I've attached the output of |
Same issue as tizzir. Also attached log |
Same as above. Have never seen DL2 working via proton (6, 7, exp). Usually i get a black screen and a crash. I checked d3d11 log inside app folder and saw an attempt to use CPU integrated graphics (that brought to an error). Hope this will help somehow. steam-534380.log |
I still get crashes with the current Proton version, but after my earlier comment, even with the 1.3.0 update, I don't advise settling for this as Proton itself should be fixed, but if you're looking to just play the game after submitting your logs here, this might work for you. Speaking of, if there's any testing I could do to help diagnose this, let me know! |
Rather embarrassingly, I have discovered that the 1.3.0 update was not to blame for the game not starting for me. At least, not in its entirety. It turns out that I had some mods installed that had not been updated, which caused the game to crash on startup. After removing the mod files, the game starts just fine with the latest proton experimental (and likely other proton variants as well.) |
For some reasons I can't play it. Even in menu my FPS is around 2. Tried different proton versions, but nothing helps. |
Same here, I tried |
It might be not for everyone, but I fixed my issues with launch option: |
Mr. @DMGPage advice helped me, but if this does not help you, then you can also go along the path: ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/534380/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/Documents/dying light 2/out/settings . 534380 - game App ID. There is a file: video.scr. I also set compatibility with Proton 7.0-4. |
When using the Intel Arc A770, it only runs with the d3d11 renderer, but produces hangups and some transparency issues (a lot of black squares around things that should be transparent).
With an nvidia 1060 it runs fine either way. UPDATE: |
I seem to be having a somewhat similar issue, at least judging by the appearance of that CLI Args: Hope this issue is solved soon! I'm happy to provide more information, but I'm at a dead end here. |
Just tried running this and the game fails to launch with both Proton 8, and Proton Experimental due to an Access Violation in dsound.dll (logs attached). Forcing compatibility to Proton 7.0-6 and the game launches correctly. Not sure how Proton works when it comes to system dll versioning, but since Proton 7 works and Proton 8+ doesn't, I assume this is a regression in Proton? Not sure if it should be flagged up somewhere else, since this game hasn't had any activity in a few months and is an older title. |
I'm having the same issue with DLSS not being available as @rcbevans. RTX 3090, 530.43.01 drivers. DLSS works fine in Lutris, but it's not available in the Dead Space Remake or Dying Light 2 no matter what I do. The fix rbcevans suggested doesn't work. |
Just to add to that, it's NOT a VKD3D or Proton issue, as Deathloop allows DLSS (and RayTracing) with no issues. |
So @kisak-valve is right, it is in fact a regression in Proton and it affects all games that use VKD3D (at least). Deathloop running using GE-Proton7-53 works perfectly. Moving it to Proton Experimental or anything from the past few weeks (including GE-Proton7-55) kills DLSS capability. Seems like Dead Space and Dying Light 2 have the same issue. I'm going to test out DL2 with GE-Proton7-53 and see if DLSS comes back, that would at least narrow the breaking change to at least the last month or so, hopefully. |
@rcbevans The dsound issue you were running into on 8.0 is quite odd from looking at the log. In order to try to figure out what is going on, could you:
And a few more context questions --
I know you have a working game now, so I get if you don't want to go through this hassle. This is really a mystery right now. I believe that if the game is still broken after "verify integrity of files" you could just copy the 7.0 dsound.dll again and fix things while we see if anything can be gleaned from the results of these tests :) |
@alasky17 Greetings. I was having this same issue and fortunately found this post to fix it. Since you are asking for some data and the op didn't get back to you, hopefully I can assist you. After switching to Steam beta and verifying integrity of both Dying Light 2 and Proton Experimental the problem returned, here are the logs you asked for: Proton Log: https://drive.google.com/file/d/10ft-5WH4z8iYLpNRxRN-sYDeIuSaGZ5p/view?usp=sharing The most interesting parts of the proton log to me are: Line 666106: Unhandled exception: page fault on read access to 0xffffffffffffffff in 64-bit code (0x000003435318ad). Questions: 2.- Where exactly is the game crashing? Before a window shows up? |
@Corbent Thank you so much!! I am hoping there will be some clue in there :) I also don't think I have any system info from anyone who has run into this bug yet. Could you also please copy your system information from Steam (Steam -> Help -> System Information) and put it in a gist, then include a link to the gist in this issue report. If you're using the Steam client beta, then please also include the output from Steam Runtime Diagnostics. |
Steam system information: https://gist.github.com/Corbent/f5585e68b0eec81a86c1764af4d011e4 I'm not used to contributing to issues on github so I'm unsure if "then include a link to the gist in this issue report" means something other than this comment. |
Swapped from NVIDIA to AMD 6800xt and now Dying Light 2 won't launch. Log file: |
Hello @LiamDawe, looking at your Proton log, it hints more towards an audio-related issue with an access violation (c0000005) in DSOUND.dll instead of direct result of a video card vendor swap. |
@LiamDawe If your problem is DSOUND.dll related try the method in the post by rcbevans. It helped me. |
Okay firstly here's a log with "PROTON_LOG=+dsound,+sync,+mmdevapi,+pulse %command%" using Proton Experimental: Some other logs that @alasky17 asked for above:
pactl list sources: And also:
I don't even seem to have dsound.dll in Proton 7, I tried verifying files and completely uninstalled and reinstalled Proton 7 and still don't have it. Weird? Edit: okay removing Proton 7 folder entirely, re-installing and then running a game unpacked it properly. Weird how verifying didn't pick up the missing file though. Anyway, did the copying from 7 to Experimental and yup it now launches. So a regression from 7 to Experimental? Log file of it now working: |
Coming back to add that I am seeing (what appears to be) the same DSOUND.dll crash in Remnant: From the Ashes |

It's something to do with my connected SteelSeries Arctis Pro Wireless headset. If I disconnect the headset GameDAC, the game launches fine. Here's updated pactl logs without the SteelSeries connected. pactl-info.txt |
It appears the issue is having two active audio input devices, as reported #6964. Using |

steam-534380.log SymptomsAfter launching the game and getting to the screen where it says "press any button to continue", and then pressing a button, the game crashes. I can't even reach the main menu. ReproductionInstall Dying Light 2, click play, the game crashes. I'm on Arch Linux and running the version of steam I got through pacman. |
I've now also tried changing the renderer between dx11 and dx12 in the settings file, changing between Windowed and Fullscreen, and a few other proton versions. So far hasn't fixed it. |
Dying Light 2 is working perfectly fine for me. I Have been playing for the past few days and I tested right now to see if an update could have caused issues.

@something12356 I can launch the game just fine with a RX 6600 and the same mesa drivers, tested proton 8 stable and proton experimental. From your message it sounds like you're using the windows version of steam, any reason why? |
@simifor I'm just using the version of steam in the Arch repo, it's not the Windows version. Here's the output from pacman -Qs steam:
|
Anyway, your crash log from the game says that your data is corrupted. Have you tried to verify the gae files to see if they haev an effect? |
I have, nothing is caught. I've also re-installed the game and that hasn't fixed anything. |
@something12356 I'm comparing against my crash log, and I see that data4 and data7 aren't loaded in my case, do you have DLC installed? |
No, I don't own any DLC for the game. I could try deleting data4 and data7 and seeing if that works. I'll get back to you after I've tried that. |
@simifor That fixed it, thank you! I'm not sure why those files were there but deleting them makes the game work. |
I'm glad that it was solved |
