Run through Bottles (flatpak) on Fedora Silverblue, AMD GPU, lutris-GE-Proton8-26

edit edit:

  • 6.8.8-200.fc39.x86_64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC
  • Radeon RX 6700 XT
  • amd-gpu-firmware-20240410-1.fc39.noarch
  • amd-ucode-firmware-20240410-1.fc39.noarch
  • xorg-x11-drv-amdgpu-23.0.0-2.fc39.x86_64

Neither bg3.exe nor bg3_dx11.exe launch the game for me, so I use the LariLauncher.exe.

  • with DirectX11 the game starts but there are bad textures, including on the very first rendered screen.
  • with Vulkan I get this error and the game crashes still at this loading screen.

The launcher complains about data mismatch but Heroic Launcher which I use to download my gog files apparently thinks it is fine. Although, the “Verify and Repair” button takes only couple of seconds.

Any ideas please?

      GloriousEggroll, the person who makes ProtonGE, also makes an entire Fedora-based distro called Nobara. it has a lot of gaming-focused changes and comes with a utility which lets you install all sorts of different versions of Proton - both vanilla and GE modded.

      obviously switching distros is a big deal but like worst case scenario you could give that a try?
