Works perfectly if installed in the /home steam library folder
This game needs to be installed in the default location where steam is installed (/home/user/.local/share/steam). The game is stuck in the main menu if it is installed in another location.
Set the following launch parameter: VKD3D_CONFIG=force_bindless_texel_buffer %command%
Changing too many graphics options at once crashes the game. It does not crash if the options are set and applied one by one.
Neither the Linux version nor the Windows version with Proton works
Linux version crashes on start. With Proton the menu works but the game cannot be played (crashes).
On first launch, a message appeared stating that Microsoft Visual C++ runtime is not installed.
Look up the path to the wine prefix in the settings of Qube 2 in Heroic and run the following command with your wine prefix path to install the missing runtime:
WINEPREFIX="PATH_TO_YOUR_WINE_PREFIX" winetricks vcrun2019
No fullscreen option in game and setting it in config file does not work.
Crashes are random and occur between 20 minutes and 3 hours. They seem to be more frequent with default Proton. It is playable with Glorious Eggroll.
Fullscreen works with KDEs application configuration:
- Press ALT + F3
- Go to More Actions -> Configure Special Application Settings...
- Click Add Property... and select Fullscreen
- Choose Force and activate it with Yes and Apply
Another problem is that the mouse cursor of the game and of the OS are visible at the same time. The game does not hide the OS mouse pointer. This can be fixed with unclutter. Open a terminal while the game is running and execute the following command to hide the mouse pointer:
unclutter --start-hidden --jitter 10000 --timeout 0.1 --ignore-buttons 1,2,3,4,5,6,7
Works out of the box with Proton 6.3-5
Runs better than the native version:
- Native on lowest graphics settings: 20 - 25 FPS
- Proton on high graphics settings: 50 FPS
To skip the 2k launcher, set the following launch option:
eval $( echo "%command%" | sed "s/2KLauncher\/LauncherPatcher.exe'.*/Base\/Binaries\/Win64Steam\/CivilizationVI.exe'/" )
