Football Manager Freeze instantly in the main menu

I'm installing Football Manager 2024 with Epic but it will freeze instantly. I thought this could be solved by removing the loading screen while it helped me bypass the loading scren. The game still freeze when theres a display. I'm using WineGE latest.

how many times have you changed wine prefix? have you seen an error window pop up? this game has really aggressive denouvo anti copy scheme, and will block you from opening the game for 24 hours if you install it too many times in a small amount of time (changing wine prefix counts as an "install")

you're probably passed the install limit do you see an error window pop up?

looks like you have connectivity issues in these logs too, my guess is something around using ipv6

well i find it funny a connectivity issue could freeze the entire game. Anyways i tried running it offline and it still the same the problem is that the logs doesnt provide any useful ideas on why it freeze

you cant it phones home to report anti tamper stuff 🙃 you have to play it online iirc it looks like a connection issue .. its spamming network stuff so you likely need to probably be using ipv4..

what does nvidia-smi report looks like that should be fine tho you can probably enable vkd3d i'd remove the launch args also since you arent in a flatpak make sure to get the wine dependencies

Install Wine Dependencies by following this guide If this does not immediately resolve your issue, you might also have to delete your Wineprefix (by default it's in ~/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/default/<game name>) Alternatively, you can use the Flatpak version of Heroic: https://flathub.org/apps/com.heroicgameslauncher.hgl

Go to game settings 2. Uncheck all DXVK and VK3D related settings 3. Clear your wine prefixes for FM by deleting your prefix folder 4. Run the game again

careful with this.. deleting your wine prefix too many times will trigger the denuvo lockout, and you wont be able to play for 24 hours

yes and also dont be surprised with the performance since it doesnt use dxvk or NV API. I think this problem is exclusive to NVIDIA

nah works fine on my nvidia system i've had no issues on amd or nvidia gpus with this one

yes maybe because i used an aging NVIDIA card that maybe cannot do well with DXVK and the Intel integrated is not even has complete vulkan support

you should be able to remove dxvk/vkd3d etc without clearing the prefix if you use wine-ge
