Death stranding crash on startup

Hello, I am trying to play my Epic Games version of DS on the steam deck, through the heroic launcher. It worked fine for a few days, but now the game freezes on startup during or after the first splash screen. I tried repairing the game and reinstalling, didnt work. tried with wine-ge and proton-ge didnt work. here are my latest game logs :

And I don't have any issues with other games from Epic that I tested.

A log from using Wine-GE will be more helpful

radv: Can't open file: '/tmp/radv_vrs.J5q2dNmf'. this looks weird, make sure heroic has access to /tmp if it still fails with wine-ge

wine-ge :

I have the same error (not same file) with wine-ge it seems. But I'm not sure how/why heroic would not have access to /tmp And ls -l tells me that the files and /tmp folder does not have any weird access right.

you are using heroic flatpak, flatpak has its own permissions to isolate applications, to check if heroic has access to /tmp you have to use flatseal

Oh sorry, didn't know, thank you. It did not have access to it, so I added it manualy but still no luck starting the game

I don’t think it’s a permissions issue with /tmp

That’s not on the list of default permissions Couple of ideas: backup your save, delete your prefix, let it rebuild Also, your save sync is still pointed to a proton prefix, i.e., pfx/

Tried that when I fully unisnstalled the game. Is that an issue ?
afraid-scarlet

It will be when your save sync doesn’t update Do you happen to have offline mode enabled?
afraid-scarlet
afraid-scarletOP2y ago
No Fixed by retrying the auto-detect

I see —offline in your launch command

afraid-scarletOP2y ago
Weird, I have "run game offline" unchecked Is that an issue ?

Try toggling it on and off to kickstart it. If not intentionally run with it enabled, crash out, disable, run again Is it just me or are discord messages coming in randomly and out of sequence?

No, me too Weird, I have "run game offline" unchecked

here's my log running just now you can try to replicate it

The only difference my untrained eyes saw are Fsync and Esync to true, but I still can't get past the first spashscreen...

I'm also using the Director's Cut, which has a lot of underlying changes. I don't know if those changes are what's causing the issue or if there has been a new patch pushed out
afraid-scarlet
afraid-scarletOP2y ago
Well I might buy the directors cut through steam then, its really cheap, I had the standard one through epic for free, and I feel like the game deserves a bit of money ^^

The DC works for me with proton experimental Adaptive triggers work too There's something wrong with wine-ge or the vkd3d-proton heroic is shipping
