It runs pretty solid on Proton GE, but you have to get Proton GE, and that may be an issue.
Vinyls and decals sometimes flash when applying them. Sometimes the break plates flash.
When the game launches, it spawns two windows; one is entirely black, and other contains the game. I can move the black one to a different workspace, but the window with the game doesn't occupy the whole screen. I can toggle fullscreen with my window manager, and then it works fine. I can't seem to put the game window into a stacking layout, it is either full screen, or occupies the center of the screen, while displaying the whole game (in result I can only see the top left quarter of the game). I don't know how much this issue comes from a fact that I'm using a window manager
I had to downgrade my graphic settings compared to playing on Windows. There is a bit of stutter present while driving around, but it is sometimes noticeable on Windows too, so that seems like an issue in the game
The game crashes from time to time, but I experienced it on Windows too
The multiplayer sometimes disconnects, but seeing other people playing this game on Windows, I can see they have such issues too, so I don't think it is platform specific.
To use mods:
Run protontricks -c "env" 261550 | grep "WINEPREFIX"
and you'll get something like WINEPREFIX=/path/to/SteamLibrary/steamapps/compatdata/261550/pfx
. Copy and paste it and add winetricks dotnet472
. Your command should look like this: WINEPREFIX=/path/to/SteamLibrary/steamapps/compatdata/261550/pfx winetricks dotnet472
(you have to change the path to the one you get from command of course)
Then paste it again and add winetricks vcrun2017
, then again adding winetricks gdiplus
(this one will take a while!)
Installing dotnet using protontricks has been failing me for a long time, even if I go back to proton 4. But it works using winetricks.
If you want to play with RBM (Realistic Battle Mod), you have to also instal the Harmony mod, and it will start working.
