Cmaterial precachevars error loading vmt file for sprites laser

Why do you use Proton instead of native run?

I would like to see Proton support all «native» source-based titles some day. The internal DirectX9 to OpenGL leaves a lot to be desired in comparison to D9VK and Gallium Nine.

Hmmm. But wine translates windows API calls to POSIX and it will be more slowly than native run. Wine run: Game -> WinAPI -> POSIX
Native run: Game -> POSIX

Correct me if I’m wrong

@qmmp123 You’re technically not wrong, but with the notable additions, such as esync and now fsync, translation of Windows API calls should be fast up to a point where legacy translation layers for DirectX9/11 bottleneck Wine itself. If you can, try to play Garry’s Mod, which is one of Source games that work with Proton, using D9VK, the recent addition to Proton 4.11, or Gallium Nine Standalone that is easily installable via Protontricks.

@Bryophyllum I have spoken with some game developers. They said version of directx game may have more optimization than OpenGL version. I meant it is problem in game code . Neither DirectX nor OpenGL does not affect on it. Sorry for english.

So I wanted to try the old csgo from 2013 (on steam, right click csgo, properties, beta and the demo viewer). After i installed it, i tried opening it and it gave me an error and when i tried it with Proton the game opened and it was just a black screen. I remember on Windows i had to open it from the steam folder csgo.exe but here you can’t do that. I know it’s not a big issue, and it’s no longer a supported version but i was thinking that maybe someone knows a solution.

GPU: Nvidia GTX950M
Driver: 435.21
Game fails to launch. Creates a black screen and displays an error message box with the following:

Failed to initialize NVAPI with error (0xFFFFFFFE), which is required when running on NVIDIA hardware. Your drivers may be corrupt or out of date.

Game seems to work fine in Proton with D9VK. However, VAC doesn’t allow you to play online.

@kisak-valve Is there anything that could be done about? It likely offers much better CPU performance than the OGL port, especially in Danger Zone.

Game launches as a black screen and then crashes with NVAPI error. Tried D9VK, no luck.

I’m sitting at 300 FPS @ 4k fullscreen max settings on native. Performs great.

Game launches with D9VK enabled. Shows this when launched.

@kiroma Try to update your drivers or reinstall it

Should I also reinstall my drivers?? Every other game runs.

@tsalwierz I think your client missed some libs. Try to launch steam via console and see logs

@shoober420 can you show logs? I wrtote earlier how to do it

Hello, id like to play the old csgo selecting the beta as here

I forced the use of specific Steam Play compatibility tool with Steam Linux Runtime as here

And if i run the game it appears that

Also, i tried with all proton versions

And if i run the game with proton, i recieve an blank screen and it exits after like 30 seconds.

I am getting a FATAL ERROR: Failed to connect with local Steam Client process! error with any proton version. I validated / reinstalled the game, but it didn’t do the trick.

Any other games works?

Well I tried TF2, and although I get the common «insecure mode» error message when trying to connect to a server, the game at least launches… Outer Wilds works too, but I don’t know if that game even checks for the Steam client.

@tanjilk ya I get the same error when I try to run the game via proton after I discovered that the native linux version also broke. The latest update really did a number on the game.

Are you talking about the counter strike old version?

Native version got updated today. Seems fixed now.

@kisak-valve is it a general problem with overwatch or is it just broken on linux?
I can download and click «review evidence» then it loads the map and as soon as it should open the game I’m back on the main menu.

EDIT: 1392 fixes it, thx a lot

@kisak-valve @alexvalve @jeffmvalve @VivekValve
the latest update 1395 breaks Linux compatibility and CSGO doesn’t start anymore.
works on 1391(beta) and 1392(release).
using Arch Linux with latest (testing repo) packages. works flawlessly with older versions.

(1391)https://gist.github.com/romanstingler/036610d877e086fed0d5372fa034b968
(1395) https://gist.github.com/romanstingler/77dd654cf696be32d4f6646d30b39e7f

on the first glance the latest version does not output

but outputs

No cached sticky mapping in ActivateActionSet.Installing breakpad exception handler for appid(steam)/version(1638464786)

It would also be much easier if you could open the console and there wouldn’t be like 10000 lines of error during 1 short match

PS: verifying files doesn’t help

Apparently someone forgot to add
