sticking of the right stick.
The game, after many attempts, finally worked as it should. A terrible port, but closer to the point. I tried many different options, but the most stable was this procedure. Most of the actions are taken from other followers.
- I downloaded PhysX from this link (https://us.download.nvidia.com/Windows/9.13.0725/PhysX-9.13.0725-SystemSoftware.msi) renamed the file to PhysX_SystemSoftware.msi and placed it in the steamapps/common/Deadly Premonition The Director's Cut/redist/ folder with a replacement.
- In game mode, run the game once with compatibility with Proton 3.16-9.
- I download the vc1converter file from this link (https://github.com/SleepyAlpha/vc1decoder-update/blob/main/vc1decoder.verb ) and put it in a folder to which protontricks has access, otherwise it will not start for you. I put it on a USB stick, the path turned out to be /run/media/SD/vc1decoder.verb (your flash drive name may differ).
- Run the console and insert the following script /usr/bin/flatpak run --branch=stable --arch=x86_64 --command=protontricks com.github.Matoking.protontricks 247660 -q quartz qedit devenum wmp9 /run/media/SD/vc1decoder.verb (replace the file location path with your own). During the execution of the script, the protontricks properties will open several times, just click Ok.
The game may crash for the first time. From the second time everything will start. The videos in the game are working properly. The sound does not stutter. The only malfunction is the sticking of the right stick in the "right" position, this is if you specified the use of the gamepad in the settings. Therefore, I advise you to use the keyboard layout. No fixes to fix the management did not help me.
the start and select buttons have been swapped (it looks like this is a feature of heroic)
not significant fps drops
I made all the settings in Heroic. In the startup parameters, I chose Proton Experimental, limited FPS to 40, enabled Esync and Fsync. Launched the game. (with the steam button pressed, we control the right trackpad, select on RT) in the launcher, I unchecked dx12, set the resolution to 1152x720, turned on the full screen and the exclusive screen, AMD FedelityFX CAS by 80-85%. In fact, the game requires the mandatory inclusion of the EOS overlay. Closing it. in Heroic, we prescribe the game launch parameter -nolauncher and start the game again. The rest of the game's goafics settings were set to medium-low. On steam, I set the FSR to 4. The game works comfortably at 40-35 FPS. If you tried to run the game in dx12, then most likely it will crash on the screen of the manufacturers' logos. If you have not enabled the EOS overlay, the game will freeze after loading a new game, there will be a black screen, and the sound will be played.
