Alan Wake Not launching

The game will try to launch for about 3 seconds then stop.
running mesa 23.2.1
tried changing to different wine versions
I also installed all of the wine dependencies using pacman
the log is below.

log isn't attached

without logs, i can give you what has worked for me and others based on threads in this forum:

you need to use wine-ge-latest
you need mesa with the mesh shader patch applied to it. Not sure if this is available on shipping mesa versions yet, but in the mesa git 24.0 repository its supported
you need d3dcompiler_43 and d3dcompiler_47

dry-scarlet•12/3/23, 5:19 AM

basically though, the game works fine after that

ordinary-sapphireOP•12/3/23, 5:44 AM

Sorry I thought I attached it

ordinary-sapphireOP•12/3/23, 5:52 AM

thanks ill try and get d3dcompiler_43 and d3dcompiler_47

just swapped to the upsteam version of mesa-git, and the latest ge-wine

dry-scarlet•12/3/23, 6:06 AM

you need to enable dxvk and vkd3d

dry-scarlet•12/3/23, 6:07 AM

and esync/fsync should be enabled

dry-scarlet•12/3/23, 6:07 AM

id disable mango hud

dry-scarlet•12/3/23, 6:08 AM

id also disable dxvk-nvapi

dry-scarlet•12/3/23, 6:08 AM

you dont have an nvidia gpu

colossal-harlequin•12/3/23, 7:09 AM

what is fsr?

ordinary-sapphireOP•12/3/23, 7:12 AM

amds version of dlss

colossal-harlequin•12/3/23, 7:14 AM

oh right

colossal-harlequin•12/3/23, 7:14 AM

is it working with allora's suggestions?

ordinary-sapphireOP•12/3/23, 7:15 AM

when i try and disable dxvk it just bliks and says please wait

ordinary-sapphireOP•12/3/23, 7:15 AM

still waiting

colossal-harlequin•12/3/23, 7:15 AM

don't disable dxvk, disable dxvk-nvapi

colossal-harlequin•12/3/23, 7:15 AM

you need dxvk

ordinary-sapphireOP•12/3/23, 7:16 AM

thats what i meant

colossal-harlequin•12/3/23, 7:16 AM

i see

colossal-harlequin•12/3/23, 7:16 AM

if you want you can send the heroic log after trying to disable that

ordinary-sapphireOP•12/3/23, 7:17 AM

this is what i see

colossal-harlequin•12/3/23, 7:17 AM

heroic logs described here: #:pushpin: Read Me First | Frequently Asked Questions

colossal-harlequin•12/3/23, 7:17 AM

i'm curious as to what the command actually is

ordinary-sapphireOP•12/3/23, 7:19 AM

ordinary-sapphireOP•12/3/23, 7:21 AM

i think its the dxvk thing thats the issue

dry-scarlet•12/3/23, 7:22 AM

you still have dxvk-nvapi enabled

colossal-harlequin•12/3/23, 7:22 AM

the problem is that it's hanging when they try to turn it off

Oordinary-sapphire this is what i see

colossal-harlequin•12/3/23, 7:22 AM

like this

dry-scarlet•12/3/23, 7:22 AM

you should also uncheck "run game in offline mode"

ordinary-sapphireOP•12/3/23, 7:23 AM

unchecked

dry-scarlet•12/3/23, 7:23 AM

you cna probably just delete the prefix tbh

ordinary-sapphireOP•12/3/23, 7:23 AM

dxvk-navapi is still hanging though

colossal-harlequin•12/3/23, 7:23 AM

look in the link that i sent and get the heroic log, which is different from the game log, after trying to uncheck the dxvk-nvapi button

dry-scarlet•12/3/23, 7:23 AM

its possible too that wine is hanging out somewhere as a zombi process i guess

dry-scarlet•12/3/23, 7:24 AM

i assume you have no saves right?

ordinary-sapphireOP•12/3/23, 7:24 AM

message.txt17.86KB

ordinary-sapphireOP•12/3/23, 7:25 AM

no saves

dry-scarlet•12/3/23, 7:25 AM

this is what my settings look like

colossal-harlequin•12/3/23, 7:26 AM

this looks funky

dry-scarlet•12/3/23, 7:26 AM

also fsr isnt really dlss.. as nvidia nvidia has a similar image sharpener shader .. but its basically just an image upresser

dry-scarlet•12/3/23, 7:26 AM

personally id wipe the prefix and start over

colossal-harlequin•12/3/23, 7:27 AM

i agree, i just wanted to see why it was breaking

colossal-harlequin•12/3/23, 7:27 AM

thanks for indulging me

ordinary-sapphireOP•12/3/23, 7:27 AM

how do i do that

ordinary-sapphireOP•12/3/23, 7:27 AM

no problem. thanks for the help

colossal-harlequin•12/3/23, 7:27 AM

delete this folder:

/home/ahmad/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/default/Alan Wake 2

don't recreate it, heroic will recreate it for you

colossal-harlequin•12/3/23, 7:27 AM

make sure you leave it the same within heroic and only delete the folder

dry-scarlet•12/3/23, 7:28 AM

before you start the game do make sure dxvk-nvapi isnt enabled
