Outside of occasional hard crashes, gameplay is smooth and has no noticable visual or performance issues.
Moderate chance (~20%) of crashing my PC when opening the pause menu during gameplay.
Some troubleshooting & patience gets me about half-way through the initial setup loading screen, but at that point the game fully freezes.
Once I reach the in-game Microsoft login screen, the following error message pops up in a separate window:
Assertion Failed!
Program:
Z:\home\user\.local\share\Steam\steamapps\common\Limitless\FlightSimulator2024.exe
File: .../src-wine/dlls/winevulkan/loader_thunks.c
Line: 2971
Expression: "!status && "vkCreateGraphicsPipelines""
Press OK to exit the program, or Cancel to start the Wine debugger.
Pressing either option on the error window closes the game, but since the game is still responsive after the error window pops up, I can ignore it and continue the login process, although I'm not able to see the location of my cursor. Once I successfully login, the game freezes completely. Restarting the game will still open the separate error window, but the login screen is skipped and I proceed to an initial setup loading screen. The progress bar is extremely slow, giving the impression that it's stuck, and the accompanying cinematic also freezes at some point, but if I continue to let the game run, the progress bar will very slowly fill up. After approximately 20 minutes of waiting, the "loading language" & "activating packages" portions of the initial setup are complete, and at this point a second, identical error message pops up. The progress bar animation fully freezes, remaining at 51% on "loading world data". The music is still playing, but visually the game is completely unresponsive.
