Dredge (Epic) Not launching
Hey all I'm trying to run dredge on Arch but it crashes on boot. I see that there is a simalar post about the GoG version that uses a UMU launcher but I've never heard of UMU before is it a launcher for steamdeck and does it apply to my situation.
Attached is my Log

Yeah you should turn UMU on since you're using Proton-GE, https://discord.com/channels/812703221789097985/1044301598018515105/1316138869107720193

Well that didn't work. The Log seems to get a little bit further
fascinating-indigo•6mo ago
I think you need to delete the prefix if you're going from no UMU > UMU (and probably vice versa),
/home/cptmoler/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/default/DREDGE
Delete that folder, try running the game againUsually that's not required
Add
WINEDEBUG=+fixme
to the env vars for the game, then re-run and send in a new log. That'll have some more detail on what's going wrongnational-goldOP•6mo ago
Ok, I've deleted the folder and it didn't fix it. So I tried Reinstalling, also didn't fix it, Then I added the env. variable

Proton tho
compatible-crimson•6mo ago
it works tho
deep-jade•6mo ago
Where is dxvk in that log then?
compatible-crimson•6mo ago
oh you also need DXVK_LOG_LEVEL=info
or smth like that
deep-jade•6mo ago
Or just
PROTON_LOG=1
instead of being fancy 🐸compatible-crimson•6mo ago
proton script disables everythin by default
but PROTON_LOG=1 sucks it out of stdout
so this is the only (convenient) way
national-goldOP•6mo ago
national-goldOP•6mo ago
Ok Turned on the proton_log
deep-jade•6mo ago
Proton Log is in home dir
A seperate log
national-goldOP•6mo ago
ok not sure where it is looking in my home directory I only stea steam-0.log
is this it?
deep-jade•6mo ago
Yes
national-goldOP•6mo ago
deep-jade•6mo ago
Your graphics setup is borked
national-goldOP•6mo ago
hmm I see the error how do I fix it? Reinstall dxvk?
deep-jade•6mo ago
sudo pacman -R lib32-amdvlk
sudo pacman -S vulkan-icd-loader lib32-vulkan-icd-loader
Do these
Launch game againnational-goldOP•6mo ago
arg my mirror is borked too getting 10b/s
ok updated my mirror list and things are better
national-goldOP•6mo ago
the 2nd command worked but the lib32-amdvlk is giving me an error

deep-jade•6mo ago
Do it again
Now it should delete that
national-goldOP•6mo ago
nope still giving me the same error
deep-jade•6mo ago
Close steam
And do it
national-goldOP•6mo ago
steam is closed
deep-jade•6mo ago
sudo pacman -S vulkan-icd-loader lib32-vulkan-icd-loader
What does this saynational-goldOP•6mo ago

national-goldOP•6mo ago
steam is not running

deep-jade•6mo ago
sudo pacman -Rdd lib32-amdvlk
national-goldOP•6mo ago

deep-jade•6mo ago
I forgot two d'#
national-goldOP•6mo ago
yeah I need to ignore the breaking dependency
deep-jade•6mo ago
🐸
Try again
Edited
national-goldOP•6mo ago
I knew that the R needed something else
got it with the Double d's
deep-jade•6mo ago
It removed now right?
Now launch game if amdvlk gone
national-goldOP•6mo ago

national-goldOP•6mo ago
yup it's gone testing now
national-goldOP•6mo ago
nope still failing
national-goldOP•6mo ago
national-goldOP•6mo ago
looks like the same dxvk error
deep-jade•6mo ago
No, different one
Your setup is more broken than i thought
inxi -SMGxx
national-goldOP•6mo ago
what's inxi?
I get command not found
deep-jade•6mo ago
sudo pacman -S inxi
national-goldOP•6mo ago

deep-jade•6mo ago
nvidia-smi
national-goldOP•6mo ago

deep-jade•6mo ago
Your drives are not btrfs right?
national-goldOP•6mo ago
nope
deep-jade•6mo ago
Then i dunno what the hell is wrong but something is broken, not ntfs too i assume?
national-goldOP•6mo ago
I'm on a LVM

Arch is about a week since I've updated it. I'll try that there's 200+ packages to update
deep-jade•6mo ago
That shouldnt be a problem usually but try anyways
But i assume you are not using arch for long
Since you didnt notice you had amdvlk until now
national-goldOP•6mo ago
yeah I didn't think it would be. I've been using Arch for years and normally it just works
why wouldn't I want amdvlk I have an amd cpu
deep-jade•6mo ago
Then you didnt play any 32 bit vulkan dependent stuff
Amdvlk is a gpu driver
Not related to cpu
national-goldOP•6mo ago
I've been playing PoE2 on vulk through the stand alone client
deep-jade•6mo ago
PoE 2 is 64 bit
Dredge is 32 bit
national-goldOP•6mo ago
yeah my tech knowledge is out of date
deep-jade•6mo ago
Amdvlk ships a layer that defaults apps to run with it
So 32 bit amd driver trying to run on Nvidia gpu blows up
We fixed that
But still something is wrong
national-goldOP•6mo ago
so amdvlk would be for non Nvidia cards and it's only used on games that are 32bit
deep-jade•6mo ago
That is only true because you had lib32-amdvlk installed
If you had amdvlk too, then 64 bit stuff would be borked too
Arch has a Vulkan driver dependency on Arch, since Steam client is 32 bit that is only pulling a 32 bit VLK driver
national-goldOP•6mo ago
ahh so that's what vulkan-icd-loader, and lib32-vulkan-icd-loader were for
deep-jade•6mo ago
If one didnt have a 32 bit vlk driver installed already arch asks for one to install
Due to alphabetic order amdvlk gets listed first since it starts with A
People press enter, stuff happens
national-goldOP•6mo ago
yup I pressed enter and stuff happened
would reinstalling the game from HGL possibly fix the problem?
deep-jade•6mo ago
Where did you install that game to begin with? 🐸
national-goldOP•6mo ago
I installed it through HGL
deep-jade•6mo ago
Not likelt
Do these
Restart pc
Try again
If that doesnt work
Install nv drivers again
Not vlk loaders but entirety of the driver
national-goldOP•6mo ago
sudo pacman -S nvidia ... I can't remember the other package
nvidia-dkms
deep-jade•6mo ago
national-goldOP•6mo ago
thanks for that. It's going to take awhile the mirrors are really slow here. Even with a fresh reflector pull the best DL I'm getting is 350kb/s
there we go. It was "libxnvctrl-565.57.01-1 lib32-nvidia-utils-565.77-1 nvidia-settings-565.57.01-1" I needed these 3 packages and now it's launching
deep-jade•6mo ago
:woohoo:
national-goldOP•6mo ago
adding that install command to my rebuild txt file. So when I rebuild my pc next time I should have all the correct packages for my Nvidia
I'm assuming I can remove the two Env. Variabls now Winedebug and Proton_log
deep-jade•6mo ago
Yes
