Anyone else having issues launching the game on GNU/Linux?
3 months ago I could easily launch the game using Proton, now I have tried EVERYTHING but it did not work. The only way I could get something working is using Lutris, but when launching the game it complains about not being able to connect to steam.
Anyone has a fix or a way to perhaps link the lutris instance to steam or something?
I use endeavour os (arch based) with X11.

i remember a guy had exactly this error and with "gtx 470" in logs instead of his actual gpu, he fixed it by reinstalling mesa (drivers) and using flatpak instead of pacman

'tis the error, my launch options are
PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 %command% gamemoderun %command%
env variable SDL_VIDEODRIVERIf your using wayland please put this in the launch options!env --unset=SDL_VIDEODRIVER DXVK_ASYNC=1 %command%
do i put this in the launch options?
same error
when you run
sudo env SDL_VIDEODRIVER, what do you see?env: 'SDL_VIDEODRIVER': No such file or directory
nvm wrong syntax, try
printenv SDL_VIDEODRIVERnew line
ye means you're not using wayland
could you look up loader.log file?
~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/671860/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Roaming/EasyAntiCheat/43ed9a4620fa486994c0b368cce73b5d/315826d981f4480aa6155e32d71b0d3b or use find ~/ -name loader.logim not using wayland either, i mentioned it before
sry didn't notice
drop loader.log file here

what proton version are you currently using?
i used GE, but the issue persists across experimental, 9, 8, and hotfix
did you update your gpu drivers between the moment you were able to launch the game without this error and now?
most definitely, but when i was playing the game i was playing it on arch linux
i use nvidia btw
did you install steam with flatpak or
pacman
i used flatpak before but iirc it had the same issue
what about other games with proton?
most of them work
check if
player.log file exists, should be in /home/dainis/.wine/drive_c/users/dainis/AppData/LocalLow/BattleBitDevTeam/BattleBit
if it does - drop it herehuh? i actually have a 1650 gtx
must be a wine thing
