Description

Compatibility Report

  • Name of the game with compatibility issues: V Rising
  • Steam AppID of the game: 1604030

System Information

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

Crashes on startup. With PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 the game sometimes reaches the main menu, but then again crashes after the intro video (which isn't visible; only artifacts ), or upon attempting to join a server. With DXVK, it consistently crashes before reaching any menus.

Different Proton versions do not appear to change this behavior, except for 6.3: with Proton 6.3 the game consistently starts, but then stops on a "Steamworks initialization failed" screen.

Reproduction

Launch the game from Steam.

Research direction

Start by reproducing V Rising from Steam with Proton Experimental, then compare the attached steam-1604030.log files across Proton and DXVK or WineD3D runs. Done means the game reaches the main menu, displays the intro video without artifacts, and allows joining a server without crashing.
