Hi All,

I get an infrequent error when playing balder gate 3 on Fedora Workstation 40. I run it in direct x11 as vulkan crashed all the time. Any ideas how to fix?

PS very new to Linux/GNU so let me know if you need any additional information.

Try disabling the Steam Overlay, and Steam’s FPS counter if you have it on

Weird, I haven’t had any issues since I bought it on steam whenever the official release was.

Install protonplus, then using it, install GE-Proton9-10 (or whatever is the most recent) for Steam. Then switch to using that within Steam (and Lutris, if you use that for other games, so it will use the umu-launcher instead).

See if that helps.

If the _dx11.exe is any indicator, do you have dxvk set up? It’s WINEPREFIX=your-prefix setup_dxvk install

Wine’s implementation of a directx-vulkan-wrapper (wined3d i think?) is ok-ish for office applications but not for games.

Edit: this is for wine native, seems like you’re running it through Steam proton, which has dxvk already.

X11 or Wayland?

Try disabling the Steam overlay.

Why would display protocol matter here? Makes no sense to me.
