-subwindow -winsize 3440x1080
Games locks up at Start/loading in Fullscreen. Maybe ultrawide limitation?
Needs -subwindow in launch options to get past initial loading screen. Otherwire runs flawlessly
crashed occasionally on alt-tab
Gamespy is dead.
Can't see other computers on LAN,
Error on launch "Cannot find a compatible graphics card" but it works find on Windows with the same card.
Works almost perfectly with Garuda. Can't get it to start at all on Manjaro as "can't find graphic card"
Micro-pauses during gameplay
6DOF Goodness
The only windowed option is "fullscreen windowed" but it's not a window. You can't push it to the back or minimize it in KDE plasma 5.27
If you're a fan Descent style games where you never truly know what's up or down and where the next mob will come from, you'll enjoy this. The graphics are a bit simple though, or too, if you're after that real Descent nastagia withouth the hassle of compiling DXX-Rebirth... or having access to any of the maps.
Missing in-game audio is a deal breaker
Videos play but in-game menus and sound effects are missing.
Unable to install openal as .../system32/openal.dll is "in use". Not even Rapture3D install works.
After the initial crash, it works fine.
Game's own launcher crashed the first time it ran. Second time it worked fine.
Native client does NOT recognize game controllers. Proton GE/Experimental client picks up controllers without issue.
Need proton for game controllers to work. Need game controllers for local split screen play. MEH!
Loads to menu then segfaults
Running the .sh files does the same. Loads, get menu, move selection or not, it crashes.
BareMetal Logo then black screen with mouse cursor.
I can hear the mouse moving over the menu items and can click on them, but still all black.
Frequent crashes and graphical issues make is tougher than normal to enjoy.
Menu background occasionally has a very green overlay. In-game textures aren't as vibrant. Screen stops rendering on knock out but can hear game continuing via sound and health bars. No mouse movement etc. Basically perma-death mode on first knock out.
Occasionally loads into frozen renderer or bright while may area.
Task error on knock out. Renderer stops but game continues.
Dev suggested adding GILowPrecision = 1 to AppData/Roaming/Exanima/Exanima.ini
Developer suggestion seems to have resolved colour bloom issue for now.
Smooth sailing for such a pretty looking Windows game on Linux. Virtually native performance.
Either the loading/retries sometimes get stuck on the twirly icon or I run out of patience after 5 minutes.

Overly sensitive
Experimental blackscreens on start cutscene. No error, just nothing. GE with listed launch options plays without issue so far.
Microphone doesn't work except in Proton Experimental
Fullscreen sometimes stuck at black screen. Windowed Borderless/Windowed via Alt-Enter is fine but Windowed Borderless has 1px white border
Mouse can 'reach' the edge of the window in Wayland so it stops after a few rotations
Runs effectively out of box, but there are issues w/mic and fullscreen mode.
Multiple Proton versions tested. Experimental and GE.
Game launches once per compatdata existence. Need to delete the compatdata folder after first launch otherwise loads to black screen.
Locked up on adding 2nd player.
Racing Hotwheels Cars
UE4 engine now works fine with Proton so have time to go vroom vroom.
Used to work with default Proton but now just sits at Running but no game window.
Can't play anymore. Tried other protons and Tinkder without success.
Launcher workes. Remastered versions blanks but audio continues. Non-remastered homeworld works. Non remastered Homeworld 2 does not
Multiple Proton builds attempted. No joy.
Stuttering on initial startup videos?
Alt-Tab spells DOOM!
Random but sustained drops in FPS. Comes back to normal after a few minutes, even without moving or looking around. No HDD activity. CPU and GPU usage remains steady during slow down. Mildly frustrating.
-QueryPort=$(getrandomport) -port=$(getrandomport)
Locks up when any single or multiseat clients exit. Has to Close via steam page.
Have to set -QueryPort=$(getrandomport) -port=$(getrandomport) to allow multiseat clients on a single host computer.
Gets stuck on "Downloading mods". Some mods just wont install. Gets stuck on "Authenticating" despite the console saying authentication complete. Retrying a few times gets past it.
Frequently get stuck on "Downloading Mods" and "Authenticating"
Stuck at Modus
Starts and shows robot head splash screen then 'Modus' and nothing. No menu, no sound. Have to force quit from steam overlay or kill the process. Tried multiple versions of Proton, GE and tinker.
Had to rename Movie folder
Could not get past MODUS intro video. Renaming .../Override/Content/Movies to _Movies fixed this.
It's very playable, despite the occasional blank screen crash requiring restart. Auto-skips auu cutscenes, because they don't play...
No audio on intro splash video and
Audible click and the screen goes blank. Can escape to menus but returning to game is blank screen. Restarting game works fine.
Cut scene audio and video do not play. Installed wmv codec but still blank and no audio.
Way less hassle than the first game.
Have to replace "SWTFU Launcher.exe" with SWTFU.exe" as the launcher doesn't work at all. Since the launcher doesn't launch, you need to manually edit the config file for resolution and key binds.
Losing focus causes the game to lock up with blank screen.
Can't access Launcher so key binds and keyboard+mouse vs controller must be done out of game in a config file.
Alt-tabbing or lossing focus hard locks the game.
Blank black screen on startup.
Used default, GE and various other Protons. Starts to blank black screen. Left it for 10 minutes, no sound, no change.
Occasional jitter and stuttering cutscenes.
Working as of recent update but with Proton Experimental only. 7.0 and GE 2.29 loads to black window.
