Recipe for Disaster from Epic crashes after the main menu
The game opens correctly but after some seconds on the main menu, it crashes.
I attached the log.

the dxvk toggle sometimes breaks
so just keep disabling and renabling it
until it works
you can check with mangohud
then install d3dcompiler_43 and d3dcompiler_47
huh seems like the logs don't contain the dxvk startup thing anymore
but I would just make sure it's enabled using mangohud
seems like mouse is broken
I am going to try wine-ge now
ok worked
it tried to open the epic overlay
which doesn't work on staging
because of shared resources
anways
1. so use wine-ge
2. enable EOS overlay
3. enable DXVK
4. winetricks d3dcompiler_43 d3dcompiler_47 on the prefix
it gives you a little popup for some data it wants to assosicate with your epic account (allow/deny usual deal)
using the overlay
it's quite nice that it works under linux
took many people many hours of work for that
in fact people thought it was impossible at one point
whoops game crashed
/usr/include/c++/12.2.1/bits/stl_vector.h:1123: std::vector<_Tp, _Alloc>::reference std::vector<_Tp, _Alloc>::operator [with _Tp = gamepad; _Alloc = std::allocator<gamepad>; reference = gamepad&; size_type = long unsigned int]: Assertion '__n < this->size()' failed.
yeah so gamepad support is sus apparently
wine-ge moment right there

This doesn't happen to me.
following your steps I still have the same problem. About 3-5 seconds in the main menu, the game closes.
fascinating-indigo•3y ago
Did you use wine-ge?
absent-sapphireOP•3y ago
Yes, 7-37.

strange
it works for me
are you sure you enabled the EOS overlay?

absent-sapphireOP•3y ago
I think so.

you have to enable it for the game, click the game card > click the 3 dots menu > click Enable EOS Overlay

Oh! that was the problem! thank you.
I can't see some fonts though

I pressed the blue button (which I guess it's the OK one) and it seems to work
fascinating-indigo•3y ago
yeah wine-ge is missing a buttload of fonts thanks to it's old base wine version
solid-orange•3y ago
you can probably install corefonts using winetricks to workaround that for now
absent-sapphireOP•3y ago
That did the trick. Thank you!
