Mod that configures FMV's to correct format
Orginal FMV's can cause a random crash
Devil May Cry HD Collection's FMVs can cause the game to crash, but this mod includes a fix that formats the FMVs into something Proton can work with. The download consists of all the games' pre-rendered videos and cutscenes. You can drag and drop these files into the corresponding location: "$HOME/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/Devil May Cry HD Collection/".
In my experience, I've noticed that the game has issues running these modified FMVs under newer versions of Proton or GE. I highly recommend using "Proton 8.0-5." I have not encountered any bugs or crashes after these modifications.
Also, if you're running a system with a resolution higher than 1920x1080, I highly recommend modifying the following file: "$HOME/.steam/steam/userdata/xxx/631510/remote/options.sav", and changing the width and height to match your screen's resolution. For example, set "width":2560 and "height":1440 if you're using a 1440p panel. The game only supports up to 1920x1080 in the launcher settings, so this is a workaround. Note that "options.sav" does not appear initially on a fresh install. You will need to launch one of the games and change something in the options settings to generate the file. For example, launch DMC3, go to options, turn on turbo mode, then back out to the main menu. This step is only necessary if you have a fresh install of the game. Otherwise, you should already have this file in your directory.
With these modifications, the game should run as intended, as if you were playing on Windows. I hope this helps! I just wanted to share how I got this game to run properly through Proton so others can enjoy it as much as I do! :D
