Do you mean the latest one?
fascinating-indigoā¢2y ago
Yeah
foreign-sapphireOPā¢2y ago
Did that and it loads up then half way through it crashes

Did you refresh the wine manager

for me the escapist works only the first time when a prefix is created
like... you delete the prefix folder > run the game > doesn't crash > close the game > open again > it crashes
and I can reproduce that consistently with any wine/proton
fascinating-indigoā¢2y ago
Works for me every time
other-emeraldā¢2y ago
try deleting the prefix and see if that's your case
fascinating-indigoā¢2y ago
Idk whats up with urs
foreign-sapphireOPā¢2y ago
Will try that to see what happens but it's werid
did that it's still happening werid
it's gotta be a bug possible?

the escapist is known to just crash there at the start, it's something really new that is working in some cases, for the last 3 years it was always crashing for everyone
I don't think it's a bug, I suspect that it uses something that is not properly supported by wine/proton that only works fine in specific scenarios

Interesting indeed, first time seeing this maybe in the future It'll work better š .
fascinating-indigoā¢2y ago
Works fine for me
I feel like it could be some bug with x11 or mesa or something
That recently got fixed
So older distros have issues or something
foreign-sapphireOPā¢2y ago
maybe I'm on the Latest one maybe different Linux Distros
fascinating-indigoā¢2y ago
Older distro is Ubuntu lts based or debian 12
23.04 is new enough I think
And debian stable is always old
foreign-sapphireOPā¢2y ago
Yeah that's why I don't use Debain at all, I know Linux Mint is based of Ubuntu Jammy Jelly Fish 22.04.2
fascinating-indigoā¢2y ago
Which is old (to my standards)
