i'm not running windows so i can't update the drivers for windows.
will check to see about the steam version though, didn't know that was a thing, i was adding it as a non-steam game before to test the proton.
Yeah, it's on Steam! I use Linux myself, and I've had issues under Wine using both Arch and Mint, specifically a lack of sound. But using the Steam version with Proton seems to work just fine, even uses the desktop environment's windows instead of Wine's Windows 7 borders
That big ball in your video looks like some tiny asset that's been enlarged, but that's all I know. I'm going to fire up Lawmage Academy under Wine again and see if I have the same issue.
Also Gentoo nice!
tried it with a few versions of proton now with same results. opens with black screen only then immediately closes,
it appears to be running in the background? cause steam still thinks it's running.
under wine , this is the unmodified wine btw and it's just installed system wide, the game runs except for that glitch.
controls and audio and everything seem to be fine.
i'll do some digging and more tests later when i wake up.
and ya i love gentoo, it has its difficult moment but for the most part it's lovely as long as you keep it updated.
I previously ran arch and before that i ran manjaro and before that i run antergos (moved to manjaro because antergos discontinued) and before that i ran windows 7 before that got nuked by windows 10's update trojan and for a brief time i run mint but it was very brief.
i'm also currently in the process of tinkering with very low level programming and writing an OS.
it's being very tempermental right now for some reason, doesn't like being logged ? whatever.
the only thing that pops up before it started acting even more buggy is apparently wine was built without vulkan support,
something about there not being NTLM support , idk what NTLM is.
it complains that it can't find a ntlm_auth.
then it complains about OpenVR , didn't know this game would have VR XD.
it looks like my best bet right now would be to rebuild wine with vulkan support because i already have the dxvk installed for it
then i can try to figure out what this ntlm thing is.
it was using the open source nouveau drivers for the graphics card which appears to be the issue, i only tried this because i began noticing issues in other games.
i had the proprietary drivers installed but they were not being used at the time because the kernel was loading it's own internal driver.
