Description
Compatibility Report
- Name of the game with compatibility issues: Fortress Forever
- Steam AppID of the game: 253530
System Information
- GPU: RX 580
- Driver/LLVM version: Mesa 20.3.5
- Kernel version: 5.10
- Link to full system information report as Gist: https://gist.github.com/hunteroone/81efb7c8337db396c5f9d14a87ba0ddf
- Proton version: Proton-Experimental & 6.3-5
I confirm:
- that I haven't found an existing compatibility report for this game.
- that I have checked whether there are updates for my system available.
Symptoms
- Custom maps cannot be downloaded. Internet Explorer is needed (and cannot be installed due to 64-bit only prefix).
- On first startup, loading a server/training mode crashes the game if you set the resolution to something besides the default 4:3. It doesn't happen afterwards.
Reproduction
For the crash:
- Install the game
- Change 4:3 to 16:9 (I used 1920x1080)
- Join a server/training mode, it should crash
For the inability to download custom maps:
- Join a server that uses custom content after the initial crash
- Any custom maps will not be downloaded, whereas it will on Windows.

Research direction
Start by reviewing steam-253530.log alongside the reported Proton versions and reproducing both the resolution-change crash and custom-map download failure. Done would require confirming the relevant behavior against the Windows result and resolving both compatibility symptoms, but the report names no source files, tests, or entry points.
