Playable with Proton 7.0-6, but doesn't look very good and you have to skip the opening cinematic or else it crashes.
The green camera overlay is shown constantly which darkens all the colors and makes the game look weird.
Will sometimes crash on starting the game for no obvious reason. On this Proton version, the opening cinematic crashes; it works fine in Proton 8+, but then the game flashes and flickers incessantly.
Disable vertical sync to correct framerate stuttering. Everything renders fine, vsync just screws with stuff apparently.
Game does not boot
More accurately, a splashscreen with the game logo and a red exclamation point appears with a loading bar. When the bar finishes loading, the splashscreen disappears, and the game stops running.
Tried the launch options listed below (-force-vulkan and -popupwindow), tried disabling Esync, D3d11, using Wine D3d11, no dice. Game crashes as soon as I try to join a server, every time.
My below report is actually incorrect. The game runs fine without tweaks; it was probably the tweaks I tried that actually broke it.
Updated to nvidia drivers (package nvidia-driver-390) and rebooted, works fine. A tad stuttery, but definitely playable.
With no tweaks, some sound effects fail to play, including dialogue. Seems playable otherwise.
To resolve the audio problem, follow these steps:
- Ensure you have installed winetricks
- Navigate to Warframe's wine prefix, which should be in ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/230410/pfx
- Confirm that the output of pwd gives the full path to the prefix, including the /pfx
- Run WINEPREFIX=$(pwd) winetricks xact
- Run WINEPREFIX=$(pwd) winecfg and set the libraries xaudio2_0, xaudio2_1, ... , xaudio2_9 to Native.
Thanks to debianxfce for finding this workaround. https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=29230
