Tested with Proton 4.2-1, same results. Game is not working and shows only a black window. |
Tested with 4.11-10, Yeah doesn't launch for me, however I dunno if proton can be configured to do a win32 prefix. So odd that proton doesn't support win32 prefixes, so very odd! Recommendation, just use lutris |

LOG: SymptomsBlack screen at launch Similar to ArcaniA: Fall of Setarrif. |
Looks like this game would benefit from support for wmvcore maturing. ( |
Arcania Issue transferred from #4942. Compatibility Report
System Information
I confirm:
Failed to obtain a log. SymptomsThe game refuses to launch - infinite loading, game not opening at all. ReproductionLaunch the game, get a black screen. Additional info:Found some information here: https://www.protondb.com/app/39690 but nothing helped. This website is quite good when it comes to user feedback on if a game works or not. Issued a refund, so I'll be unable to test anything more. |
Does not start with Proton 5.13-6, 6.3-5, Experimental, GE 6.8-2 Requires dependencies xact_x64(you could try faudio here), wmp11 (mf likely works also), physx (odd, this should have installed during pfx creation) Seems to be some issues even after those are installed. Here is a log file without anything but proton 6.3. |
Two things stick out. (mesa21.1+ with 6800xt here) Game may not be compatible with DXVK 1.9? Interesting enough I installed amdvlk and loaded that with icd and that surface extension is supported. Maybe time to install those dependencies again and see what happens. Keep in mind this game is 32bit! Another issue is wmp11 and xact do not install correctly in protons above 5.0 from what I can see. It has all sorts of permission issues with the dll's and registering them. You can painfully go through and sort them out and MAYBE get those to install, but it doesn't mean the game will work. It just seems like this game is a absolute mess to get running! (at least for AMD users, I remember having it running with my 1080ti) |
I found this, apparently there is some issues under windows. Unfortunately doing this didn't resolve the problem under Proton for me, still tries to load up but fails. I have the dependencies loaded up on proton5.0-10 also (some won't install on newer). legacy version works under windows10 if you delete garbage files (from non-legacy), but under Wine or Proton it has Application load error 5:0000065434 (this shows under win10 also with garbage files, so I think its a generic error code, can mean anything) I presume this is something about a missing resource, but I've tried pretty much everything suggested. Latest Log: |
I tried to play this game on newest Proton Experimental (as of today), and the game does work until a certain point. After you start a new game, the game plays nicely (FPS is low, but that doesn't really matter to me as long as it's smooth) until you finish the "introduction to the game" part (dungeon where you play as Rhobar), and after you get onto your main character, after beating the demon in the dungeon, the game still works fine until the first dialog with Ivy ends. Then the game freezes. I also tried tinkering on Proton Experimental, but the same results apply (installed wmp11, xact_x64, physx). Other (Valve) Protons don't work at all. Is there something I can do to help discovering what is wrong? I remember there being a command you put to the launch option to generate a log, would that help in this case (if so, I'd also wanna ask to provide that command)? Also, thank you for all the work with Proton! |
Hello @4164696f73, you can use |
System info for some additional spice (in case it's needed): https://gist.github.com/4164696f73/ff39ee1a06948954b97ab4de975ee668 |
Looks like it errors reading some wmv video file. Earlier winegstreamer also have a timeout error. |
Here is mine if it helps. As I can see the shine_glowing.wmv is missing. Same issue as @4164696f73 |
So, according to ProtonDB, all you gotta do to play the game is to copy two files. So I tried that and it works, read further if you want more info. The game seems to be very angry about Fast script (using the shortest *.wmv files - 1.49 seconds):
The one-liner just enters the If the game does not run for you for any reason, e.g. the game is not even rendering at all after pressing "start", set the Proton version to 7.0-6, then you can set it back to Proton Experimental and it works (or just try enforcing Proton Experimental) - the game did not want to launch for me before I did that. Might be just because the game installed weirdly or something, and that fixed it for me. IMPORTANT INFO: |
I can now confirm that adding those two files fixes the game for good (message above). Screenshot of the credits for "proof" that it works. |
On launch this game shows a black fullscreen window with a custom cursor, nothing else happens. You can use ALT-TAB correctly. Is like it is tryng to play some video, falling.
This game used to work with vanilla WINE (and better with gallium nine patches), but I can't recall the DLL I installed.
I'm using Proton 3.7-3.
