check and uncheck disable umu option in game settings
rival-blackOP•3mo ago
Reinstalling right now, if that doesn't work, I'll try that
deep-jade•3mo ago
reinstalling doesnt do anything.
just wastes bandwidth and disk io
the only case that helps is if you had some corrupt file, which the verify option is better suited to fixing.
rival-blackOP•3mo ago
Oh gotcha
To clarify, disable umu is supposed to be unchecked?
deep-jade•3mo ago
yes but there's a bug where you may have to disable it and re-enable it for its setting to actually work
you want umu to be enabled
rival-blackOP•3mo ago
Not working
Should I try a different proton version?
deep-jade•3mo ago
no, post new log
rival-blackOP•3mo ago
deep-jade•3mo ago
you changed wine
use proton-ge latest
delete your prefix as well
(since you changed to wine)
you may have to disable and enable umu again
rival-blackOP•3mo ago
Not sure what happened there, but I'll try it again
deep-jade•3mo ago
post new log if it doesnt work
i just tried this game and it worked fine on my end
rival-blackOP•3mo ago
I using thw default prefix, shoild I make it it's own prefix?
deep-jade•3mo ago
?? when you delete the game's prefix, which is here:
/home/gamer/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/default/Moonlighter
heroic will recreate it
you shouldnt have to make any custom anythingsrival-blackOP•3mo ago
deep-jade•3mo ago
you can try disabling nvapi (i doubt this will do anything)
rival-blackOP•3mo ago
Yeah no, is it because I had the linux version installed first possibly?
deep-jade•3mo ago
no
you have an older amd igpu and i wonder if you have a driver issue with your vulkan setup
i dont relaly know your os
rival-blackOP•3mo ago
The z1e is old?
deep-jade•3mo ago
oh hah i read good, i was thinking it was one of the older apus before the steam deck, similar chip name, no it should be fairly steamdeckish
my steamdeck ran this fine too :/
make sure you've got all your vulkan stuff setup properly i guess?
i dont know chimeraos so you may have to look that up
rival-blackOP•3mo ago
It's pretty locked down, it's basically a streamlined steam os like bazzite or holoiso
deep-jade•3mo ago
i'd expect those to have vulkan to be properly setup
rival-blackOP•3mo ago
It usually does
deep-jade•3mo ago
whats the log look like with nvapi off
rival-blackOP•3mo ago
No other games gives me issues like this.. I wonder if protondb has any tips
deep-jade•3mo ago
protondb is a crap shoot cuz half the folks there dont know what they're doing haha
rival-blackOP•3mo ago
heres the log https://0x0.st/8eQg.log
deep-jade•3mo ago
but generally protonfixes should take care of it
and i was able to run this without any futzing at all
rival-blackOP•3mo ago
Hmm
rival-blackOP•3mo ago
Will this make any difference ?

deep-jade•3mo ago
shouldnt need any options like that.
your logs are complaining about mfc140, you could use winetricks to install it and see how that goes
i dont have mfc140 installed and dont have this error tho so haha
i mean you could try the option they gave but it basically disables dxvk and runs wine3d instead which isnt great but bypasses dxvk.. your gpu is new enough that this wouldnt be an issue for you normally since your gpu supports vulkan properly
you may want to first, verify the install
before trying all that
maybe something corrupted when redownloading it earlier
rival-blackOP•3mo ago
I've verified and reinstalled already,
I know chimera can be wierd sometimes, ill try winetricks
@Allora woild you beleove me if I told you that fixed it
There's some wierd audio glitching, but it works
So that negs the question, is it a GOG thing, or Chimera thing
.
deep-jade•3mo ago
yeah im not sure, i have the epic version
and builds are usually different between stores
even if they're all windows builds
might be a gog dependency
rival-blackOP•3mo ago
Maybe. Thank you for your help! Now just have to upload my saves from my pc haha
deep-jade•3mo ago
the stuttering is probably something some buffering settings can handle, but i usually play things muted so i dont have too much experience futzing with that haha
yeah what i would do for saves: back them up first .. the saves that you want to keep, put it on another folder or drive or something
rival-blackOP•3mo ago
Same, the audio thing doesn't bug me that much
deep-jade•3mo ago
then i would upload them to the cloud from the device that has them
then on heroic, go to the save sync tab and do a forced download
rival-blackOP•3mo ago
Gog galaxy makes it super easy, I just jave to make sure my pc save supercedes my hh saves.
deep-jade•3mo ago
(the game on heroic probaly has a newer save than on the server)
hence the force download, if tha tworks, then you can play a bit, save, and do the upload
if down and up seems to be working and the save is right, you can then probably turn on auto sync in heroic for the game
rival-blackOP•3mo ago
Roger!
Thank you again. I'm closing this for now.
deep-jade•3mo ago
i'd also test the upload worked by downloading it on the other device and playing
np!
