To help you, we need a game log. Please see the following images on how to get it.

IMPORTANT: Logs are disabled.
Enable verbose logs in Game's settings > Advanced tab > 'Enable verbose logs' before reporting an issue.
"useSteamRuntime": true,
Disable this
"targetExe": "/home/deck/Games/Heroic/Breath of Fire IV/BOF4.exe",
And remove this
Also not sure what that steamdeck=1
env var is supposed to accomplish, I'm pretty sure this game doesn't look at thatrobust-apricotOP•4w ago

That'll be fun, looks like the game is trying to use a very old version of D3Drobust-apricotOP•4w ago
That's the log with logs enabled i seen people online it works for them by just forcing the game to ge 9.27 gog just released it today

Breath of Fire 4 Re-Released On GOG Thanks To Preservation Program ...
Breath of Fire 4 has officially been released on GOG thanks to their preservation program, and it runs quite nicely on the Steam Deck with some changes.
Could you head to the Wine Manager in Heroic & check whether there is an Update icon next to GE-Proton-latest?
If that isn't there, you should be using GE-Proton-9.27
robust-apricotOP•4w ago
I Tryed Both ge proton ge latest and ge 9.27 boy have the same released date to
Yeah -latest is just "Whatever the latest version is". It's there so you can easily update your Proton version without having to manually re-set it for each game
So both of them are 9.27
robust-apricotOP•4w ago
Ok I will set to that for updates just bummed the game isn't working for me
Yup perfectly understandable. I'll see if I can test the game on my Deck tomorrow
robust-apricotOP•4w ago
Thanks
conscious-sapphire•4w ago
i remember testing a game with this issue
i dont remember what
i ended up kicking rocks because most solutions i ran into were proton-centric
robust-apricotOP•4w ago
@TheGoldenGem so basically wait until a proton update to fix it ?
conscious-sapphire•4w ago
there might be an existing solution itd just require some testing
just wait a bit and see if someone can come up with something since it has been literally 1 day since the game's release

Things I would try:
1. Enable umu. Check and uncheck the box for Disable umu
2. Install
d3dcompiler_43 and 47
The original release apparently used 7 while the GOG one has a min req of 9Yeah there's a wrapper shipped with the game (according to PCGW), but if that wrapper would be working you'd see DXVK log messages
In cases like this it's usually best to look at the game yourself, it's really easy to miss something small while doing "remote support" like this. Like, maybe we're not running the setup steps for the game correctly, or there's some DLL override required

Can confirm I am having the same issue as well.
"Unhandled page fault on read access"
This is currently on Wine 8.26 (installed d3dcompler 43 and 47 as suggested above). Also tried it in Proton 9.27

WINEDLLOVERRIDES=ddraw=n,b;dinput=n,b
try this env variableimplicit-lime•4w ago
Success!
Thank you very much for the suggestion!


implicit-lime•4w ago
@maps Try that suggestion as well, see if it works for you.
robust-apricotOP•4w ago
Thank you this works 💪
genetic-orange•4w ago
Does it work with the anime FMVs dude?
funny-blue•4w ago
yes
genetic-orange•4w ago
Confused with this image, copied and pasted it but still doesn't work...

flat-fuchsia•4w ago
did you click the green plus on the right? if so, post a game log
genetic-orange•4w ago
Here what I tried so far....

genetic-orange•4w ago
Do I copy and paste on both?
flat-fuchsia•4w ago
Paste it without the quotes into the left and it’ll format it to what it should be. The variable is in all caps and belongs on the left
robust-apricotOP•4w ago
Put WINEDLLOVERRIDES in the variable name then put ddraw=n,b;dinput=n,b in the value
genetic-orange•4w ago
Thanks alot..... :woohoo: It FINALLY worked! Now I can enjoy the best classic JRPG on the GO with my Steam Deck.... 😎

flat-fuchsia•4w ago

genetic-orange•4w ago
