I just tried this game with last Proton version 3.7-6: https://gist.github.com/legluondunet/0f0a56fb4e9cb743f111385e554fce69 |
|
Enabling steam configuration for the controller breaks controller usage. |
|
As well, the keyboard controls and controller seem to overlap in bad ways. I have to tap shift to detoggle RB/holding shield up. |
|
I had an issue with spinning camera (when controller was connected), but was resolved with upgrading libsdl to 2.0.6. After that game, and controller, works fine. |
|
@bumbar1 which distribution are you using? On Ubuntu 18.04 there is not this issue (libsdl 2.0.8). |
|
I'm on elementary 0.4.1, which is based on ubuntu 16.04, hence the libsdl update. AFAIK ubuntu 18.04 ships with updated version. |

Dark Souls: Prepare To Die Edition, No in-game video playback support Issue transferred from #1723. Compatibility Report
System Information
Symptoms
Solutions
Besides these two points, the game runs smoothly on appropriate hardware/driver configurations. |
|
Can also confirm that x360 controller work fine for the game. Not sure if it requires dinput8 or not, but I think not. |
|
@Rabcor DSFIX is useless with Dark Souls Prepare To Die Edition, why do you need it? PS: I'm not talking about the remastered edition. |
|
You mean the remaster? That is another game, this thread is not about that game. I neither have nor want that game. It would be lunacy to pay $40 for a game I already have, and the remaster doesn't really do anything that can't be achieved with the original + dsfix. Why do you think it's getting shitty reviews? If by any chance you were actually talking about this game though... It was 30fps locked for me without dsfix. |
My last post seems to be not enough clear about the version I'm talking about, I corrected it. |
|
@legluondunet and yet it does work fine at 60fps and everyone does it (and has since the games' release), and you are derailing this discussion, stop. |

Dark Souls PTDE (and 2 and 3) are crashing on launch for me since the Proton 3.16 update. -Name of the game with compatibility issues: Dark Souls PTDE, Dark Souls II Scholar of the First Sin, and Dark Souls III -Steam AppID of the game: 211420, 335300, and 374320 -GPU: Radeon Fury X -Driver/LLVM version: mesa 18.3.0-devel from Padoka PPA, LLVM 8.0.0 -Kernel version: 4.15.0-36-generic -Link to full system information report: Gist -Proton version: 3.16 and 3.7-8 steam-211420.log Description: Since the update, Dark Souls PTDE, Dark Souls II Scholar of the First Sin, and Dark Souls III all crash on launch. Other DX11 games are working fine with DXVK (Witcher 3, Skyrim SE, Killing Floor 2). Oddly, Dark Souls II and III do not crash if they are minimized (using alt + pgdn). Upon maximizing, they are stable if there is no input. If I press any button, the game crashes after one or two seconds. Dark Souls PTDE crashes even when minimized. Things I have tried: Reproduction: For Dark Souls 2 and 3: Launch the game and immediately minimize the window. The game will launch normally in the background. Upon maximizing the window, press any button. The game will crash after 1-2 seconds. UPDATE: Downgrading to mesa 18.2.2 solved this issue. It seems it's a problem with mesa 18.3.0. |

OS: Linux Mint 19 Cinnamon 3.8.9 Known issues: Opening sequence (and most likely ending credits) will not play video/audio. Subtitles can be seen. As of now it's not only playable but haven't experienced any significant framerate loss. Will need to play it more but as of now it's one of the few games I can enjoy with Proton. So this is more of a thank you for getting this to work! |

Dark Souls Prepare to Die edition: Only ENG and Jap available Issue transferred from #1878. Hello. Game ID: 211420 The game is available in multiple languages, but when i install the game in ubuntu i have only english and japanase available as language settings. When i had windows i was able to choose my own language (italian) and others as well. I think languages files are not even installed. Thank you in advance :) |

Hello @meowmeowfuzzyface, it may be worthwhile to bring your video driver issue to the attention of the video driver vendor if it has not been already. |
|
Distro: Linux Mint 19.1 Tessa (64 bit) Gameplay works perfectly, also tested with Nintendo Switch Pro controller over bluetooth. Videos are not played, just a black screen but subtitles are displayed. media_info.txt From the logs this looks like another quartz game Videos are in WMV, VC-1 + WMA |
|
There's some kind of regression with Proton 5 versions. DS Mouse Fix doesn't work properly with anything past Proton 4. Even the GE versions suffer from the same issues. This is a shame because version 5 has superior performance. |
|
System: The game works well even the intro video is playing fine Can anybody help me ? |
|
System: Issue: The same issue has occurred before with the Arch Kernel and Proton 5.13-6 Proton Log (warning: 20mb text file): The WINEDLLOVERRIDES are for dsfix and x360ce respectively. I cannot get my Logitech F510 Gamepad to work without x360ce. Xorg and journalctl logs contain absolutely nothing at crash time. (This might be cos I rebooted too fast tho, I will wait longer next time it happens and check again.) |
|
Hello @sonofevil, you're using Haswell generation Intel graphics. The graphics drivers for this generation has incomplete support for Vulkan, and there's a good chance that you're seeing a video driver bug of some kind. Unfortunately, that incomplete driver support makes your system unsupported by Proton in general. It might be a good idea to check your system logs for a dying message from the kernel, or possibly setting up netconsole to give the kernel a chance to send a dying message to a second system for you to ponder. |
|
This Proton log looks like it might potentially contain some useful info. The game froze pretty much right after I loaded the savegame. Though there are only warnings in it, no errors. https://gist.github.com/sonofevil/a4a586935c80e84d3b29a083f40b2d9a Also I think I found something in journalctl (especially in the middle of the gist), but I'm not sure what it means: [Update: I isolated the exact relevant section of the journalctl output for the most recent freeze: https://gist.github.com/sonofevil/dbe4aeca20c559b0c535becd9f8a1d1b ] Oh also I should mention that it's not a total system freeze, as background audio continues normally. This looks like it could be related: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/intel/-/issues/2905 Supposedly patched since 5.10.15 but I'm on 5.12.15. This also looks similar: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/intel/-/issues/174 Unresolved Kernel bug where it's unable to handle certain issues with Haswell GPUs properly and causes a deadlock. Update: I can return my system to normal by restarting the display manager with a keyboard shortcut. I believe the freeze is purely graphical in nature. What this has allowed me to discover is that DARKSOULS.exe is still running as a zombie process adopted by an instance of systemd (PID 1005 running under my UID, not PID 1, but when I try to kill that it gets adopted by PID 1). Consequently I cannot start a new instance of the game. The same goes for "vulkandriverque", seemingly confirming it's a Vulkan issue. The system isn't even able to kill those processes during shutdown, so that shutdown hangs and I have to poweroff. I tried downgrading my kernel to 5.10.52-1 LTS, and for a while it looked like the issue went away, but then the freezes started happening again. HOPEFULLY FINAL UPDATE: Actually I think the LTS kernel fixes it, I just accidentally reverted back to Zen cos I forgot to change the GRUB order, and that's when I got freezes again. My bad. Been running the game with LTS for a few hours now and had no issues. |
|
It runs fine with the LTS kernel. No more freezes. Must be a bug introduced with newer kernel versions. Notes on non-Xbox controller support, to whom it may concern: I could get my Logitech F510 controller to work, but for this several conditions had to be met:
Hope that helps someone. |

OS: Arch Linux rolling Game crash as soon as game windows opens when launching with DSFix, while on Pop OS! 21.10 everything runs fine. Without DSFix experience too much stuttering. Proton log: |
|
Hello @gabrielmscampos, in the future, please attach logs as a file or use a gist. |
|
I have the same issue as @gabrielmscampos. The game launches fine without DSFix, but if using |
|
Game crashes immediately upon loading a save, using dsfix. |
|
Exact same problem as @Bettehem and @gabrielmscampos, tried multiple Wine/Proton versions, with clean prefixes and tried to install the directx from redist, it runs fine without DSfix, but a clean dsfix with the override crashes the game. Couldn't figure it out the cause, some people seem to run fine. |
