Total War: ROME II - Emperor Edition
Tinker Steps:Custom Proton: GE-Proton8-13, Set launch options, Changed configuration
PROTON_NO_FSYNC=1 PROTON_NO_ESYNC=1 DXVK_FRAME_RATE=30 %command%
To fix dark shadows. Bug in DX11, so we switch to DX9 Go to /home/user/.steam/root/steamapps/compatdata/214950/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Roaming/The Creative Assembly/Rome2/scripts/ open preferences.script and change the line gfx_device_type 1 to gfx_device_type 0.
- Initially installed via Steam with Compatibility set to Proton 7.0.6
- Run the game. Preferences file was created. Dark shadows bug appeared.
- Switched to DX9 as described above
- Added launch options for esync and fsync. Added frame throttling option due to laptop heat
- Worked well until click of End Turn. AI would go through its turns and when it was my turn again game would crash.
- Installed Proton-GE. Went into Steam -> right-clicked Rome 2 -> Properties -> Compatibility -> switched from Proton 7.0.6 to Proton-GE
- Ran the game. No crash yet (~4 hours of uninterrupted gaming)
- Multiplayer finds games. Can't join due to mods installed (Divide et Impera - DEI). Might work, haven't tested.
