Description

Compatibility Report

  • Name of the game with compatibility issues: Have a nice death
  • Steam AppID of the game: 1740720

System Information

  • Steam Deck (SteamOS 3.4.6)
  • Proton version: Experimental

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

There seems to be some regression regarding Proton Experimental. Booting the game, when the Gearbox publishing logo shows up, if there is any kind of framerate limitation, it will freeze there and get stuck. The only way to get pass through it is to disable the framerate limitations. Sadly I also enabled the VSync inside the game which also reproduces the issue and can't enter to fix it.

Logs

steam-1740720.log

Forcing 7.0-6 seems to fix the issue

Research direction

Start by reviewing the attached steam-1740720.log and reproducing the freeze in Proton Experimental with a framerate limit and in-game VSync enabled. Compare that behavior with Proton 7.0-6, which the report says works; done means the game passes the Gearbox logo under the affected settings.
