Marvel's Midnight Suns

Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes

Tinker Steps:Set launch options

eval $(echo "%command%" | sed "s|2KLauncher/LauncherPatcher\.exe|MidnightSuns/Binaries/Win64/MidnightSuns-Win64-Shipping.exe|")

Performance:Slight Performance Problems

Generally good performance using d3d12. However, FPS tanks after every daily sparring session to <10 fps. I can fix this by toggling some video settings (like fsr quality) to something and then back again. Also happens after some hero ops, presumably connected to the art generation (although I never had a problem with mission art).

I also found having Above 4G Decoding / Resizable BAR enabled would cause degredation in performance, though on first startup would work fine. After some time the FPS would around half and become noticably slow. This still happened with various VKD3D & RADV settings to disable rebar, but doesn't occur with rebar disabled in the bios.

Disabling Above 4G Decoding / Resizable BAR in the bios gave me best performance.

Overall: The launcher prevents the game starting up, this requires a workaround. Otherwise it works very well with some minor performance issues.

The Chronicles Of Myrtana: Archolos

Almost works well.

Windowing:Switching

Input:Other

Mouse sensitivity is too low to be usable. Mouse cursor appears in zStartupWindowed mode making that a poor experience.

Instability:Not Listed

Game freezes on exit, has to be killed pkill -KILL Gothic2

Significant Bugs:

Videos/cutscenes are black in fullscreen mode. Windowed mode fixes this, but has other issues like mouse cursor always visible.

After some messing around it works well

Tinker Steps:Custom Proton: Proton Next (7.0-6), Changed configuration, protontricks

I installed the latest https://github.com/SaiyansKing/GD3D11/releases mod. The ran protontricks 1467450 winecfg and added overrides for each mod dll file (anttweakbar.dll, ddraw.dll etc) in the "Libraries" tab.

In system/Gothic.ini scaleVideos=1 ensures the videos aren't little boxes. useQuickSaveKeys=1 enables quick save/load with F5/F9 (necessary as this is Gothic). Only fullscreen worked properly.

My mouse speed was far too slow in game. I had to reset it to a neutral OS speed before starting the game. I did this using the launch options.

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.peripherals.mouse speed 0; %command%; gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.peripherals.mouse speed -0.75

The game works fine except for videos. In game videos: 1. Startup logo. 2. Intro movie shortly after starting a new game. 3. End game movies.

Running protontricks 251150 directshow allowed the logo video to work. Installing K-Lite Codec Pack Basic into the prefix allowed the intro movie to work.

The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky SC

Silver

In general the game works fine except for videos. Running protontricks 251290 directshow & installing K-Lite Codec Pack Basic into the prefix allowed all videos to work. This worked perfectly for 55 hours, until 2 of the final boss fights caused a CTD "Unhandled exception: page fault". I moved past these sections by booting into windows. The final piece of gameplay and video worked fine.
