Hello, Today I tried to run talos principle 2, but it keeps freezing and eventually crashes during the starting loading screen.
This is one of the few times linux gaming has failed on me recently, so I am quite frustrated. ProtonDB gives it a fairly good rating, so I wonder if some part of my setup is wrong or something.
For distro, I am running Pop OS, and installed it in non-home partition. Could that cause issues?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
EDIT: Strange behavior is observed. Once I skip the starting loading sequence (the one with e.g. unreal logo), it works flawlessly. I wonder what is happening while they show me corp logos.
You must log in or register to comment.
Maybe try another Proton version, or GE?
hardware?
my experience was also flawless out of the box, on an all amd system.
Hmm, then my issue might be caused by nvidia card. It’s GTX 2060 on ASUS laptop.
It worked for me out of the box with no config changes (ubuntu 24.10, wayland, nvidia 565 driver), but there are some comments on protondb about it crashing if you have an integrated graphics card in your machine.
Suggested solutions there are either disable the integrated graphics card in bios, or use -preferNvidia launch option (presumably only if you actually have an nvidia card, but no idea, can’t test myself).
I found something interesting - it works if I skipped through the company logos on startup. I guess the phase has memory issue or something?
Thanks, I will try that.
