Anyone able to play Dauntless without it crashing in 2 minutes?
So I downloaded Dauntless using the Heroic Game Launcher. I had to enable the EasyAntiCheat option (and the Feral Game Mode option which is apparently required for EAC option to work).
After doing this the game starts but gets stuck on an EasyAntiCheat error. To solve this I found a fix on Reddit where we can symlink the EasyAntiCheat directory in the root of the game folder to another deeper folder. This fixes the EAC error.
So the game boots properly now but the performance is terrible. To fix that I added this
DXVK_ASYNC=1
variable which seemed to fix the performance (only if I plug in the power adapter).
However, now the game crashes within 2 minutes of me playing it :(. Any idea on what steps I can take to debug this?
If it is any help. I can play Rocket League without any problems (it does not need any extra settings other than the simple download either).10 Replies

Here is another log of a much quicker crash. Hopefully has less noise.

I also diabled FSync for the second log.

Both the first and the third log files end with
*** stack smashing detected ***: terminated
if which I'm not wrong is a protection mechanism against buffer overflows.ratty-blush•3y ago
according to AreWeAnticheatYet, it requires some tweaking, and it links to this reddit thread, have you checked that? https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/wrok4z/dauntless_is_working_again_on_linux/

Oh yeah I’ve done all this so the game starts and works for a bit too. But crashes within 2-3 minutes of roaming Ramsgate

I am experiencing the very same thing with the Flatpak version of Heroic Games Launcher, Wine-GE-Proton7-35,
DXVK_ASYNC=1
and the fix to link EasyAntiCheat from the Archon/Binaries/Win64 directory as suggested on Reddit. Game crashes around 2 mins after running around in the game with the stack smashing error as the most recent significant entry in the log file.optimistic-gold•3y ago
I don't have an answer, but
DXVK_ASYNC=1
does nothing with Wine-GE. It's also unneeded because DXVK 2.0 does the same thingyappiest-sapphire•3y ago
Thanks that’s good to know
