CygnusTerminal · 2020-07-23T18:51:42Z

Have you tried with Proton-GE? There is a build made to run games that need media foundation.

jymmysmcsubs · 2020-07-24T00:02:11Z

Yep, I mentioned 5.9-GE-3-ST as a Proton version tried in the System Information section. I think I tried an older maintained version as well in case there had been a regression.

I've since got the game refunded as I wasn't interested in having paid for something I can't reliably use.

VanGrx · 2020-08-01T01:26:43Z

For GE releases, I think MF tag is used for Media Foundation. No?

I can confirm that the game is crashing on startup on Proton-5.11-GE-3-MF.

ElderBlade · 2020-08-11T03:50:53Z

It's also crashing for me at the first cut scene. I've tried the following proton versions:

Proton-5.11-GE-3-M
Proton-5.9-GE-5-ST
5.0-9

I can also confirm cutscenes don't work, tried with:

Proton-5.13-4
Proton 5.9-GE-8-ST

I need to hex edit the .exe files to remove playback of video files for it to work, though cutscenes are a big part of the games' story, so I don't really want to have to do that. Would be nice to have a fix.

sal-dev · 2021-01-17T05:47:36Z

Is it possible that this can be fixed with some version of WMP via Protontricks (e.g. wmp10)? I don't have the game, so I can't check, but the issue with cutscenes reminds me of #1253 (cutscene problems in Resident Evil 5).

kosmas12 · 2021-01-17T17:57:36Z

@sal-dev I tried with wmp11 a bit ago (Only one that I could install on a 64-bit WINEPREFIX), and it didn't really help, unfortunately.

sal-dev · 2021-01-18T15:02:01Z

@kosmas12 Ouch, that's disappointing to hear, but thanks for reporting back.

The only other possible fix I can think of is Protontrick's wmv9vcm verb. According to this post from the Wine HQ forums, the cutscenes need libraries for a certain WMV codec which wmv9vcm is a part of. This Wine bug report and this WineDB test claim success fixing similar issues in other games using WMV 9 VCM support.

I realize those may seem a little outdated, so here is a success story in fixing Dead or Alive 5's cutscenes on Proton, which involves wmv9vcm. (DOA5's Github issue can be found at #1834.)

Games that require WMP and/or the WMV 9 VCM often need need quartz as well.

EDIT 1: for additional proof of the codecs used by the cutscenes, you can download the Antialiased Cutscene pack from this post and analyze them in the software of your choice. (These cutscenes should be fully compatible replacements for the files in the game's Video folder.)

EDIT 2: In my research, I came across this issue report from the wine-tkg repo. It highlights some of the idiosyncrasies that DMCHD has with WMV playback, indicating that these cutscene problems may very well be from an upstream wine bug (with winegstreamer), but could also be due to immaturity with Media Foundation support. Either way, we're left playing the waiting game.

kosmas12 · 2021-01-22T20:01:45Z

@sal-dev Sorry for the delay, not too much time in my hands lately.

I tried with the recommended packages but I can't get it to work with those either. As you said, we're left playing the waiting game.

sal-dev · 2021-01-22T21:18:46Z

@kosmas12 Thanks for testing again. I feared that was going to be the case, since that winegstreamer bug looks particularly fishy and is probably the main culprit here. Still, it's hard to tell whether it's even a bug in the first place without deeper analysis.

kosmas12 · 2021-05-07T15:26:33Z

It seems that Proton GE has added partial WMV support with version 5.6 (current latest version is 6.5). Have these changes been merged to this version perhaps? I tried to test again with GE 6.5, however couldn't get this game to work without crashing on cutscenes. Perhaps work could be done on it now that the base is there? The patch notes for 5.6 say RE2 and RE3 should work, so perhaps there isn't too much trouble to fix this now?

Ran it with Proton GE 6.21 and Proton Experimental, in former it crashes immediately whereas in latter the launcher works but the games still crash.

Cooky-12 · 2022-02-26T09:26:09Z

works with Proton Experimental, but blackscreen when play video, only play audio

kosmas12 · 2022-02-26T09:30:30Z

Well that's still quite some progress from completely crashing, props to the Proton team!

SpidFightFR · 2022-06-06T15:37:29Z

Still doesn't work: With either Proton experimental or Proton-GE

Hello @SpidFightFR, in the future, please attach logs as a file or use a gist. You can add PROTON_LOG=1 %command% to the game's launch options to tell Proton you want a log, then run the game and attach the generated $HOME/steam-$APPID.log to this issue report as a file. (Proton logs compress well if needed.)

SpidFightFR · 2022-06-07T19:24:28Z

@kisak-valve Hello, understood. My apologies.

kosmas12 · 2022-06-07T20:05:41Z

Just wanted to shed some more light here, it would seem whenever I try to play cutscenes I get a black screen for just a little bit and it skips the whole thing directly, no audio (as was stated above at one point). This has been last tested with Proton GE 7.10. Not an issue for me, just a status update. Perhaps it has been fixed with later Proton GE. Or maybe I am missing some package in my WINE prefix? Either way, I am talking about a stock Proton GE 7.10-generated prefix.

SpidFightFR · 2022-06-08T20:06:21Z

Hello guys. Thank you @kosmas12 for your suggestion, the game indeed works with protonGE 7-10. i don't understand why tho.
I'll make a report on protondb.com.

Have a nice day, guys.

kosmas12 · 2022-06-08T20:14:21Z

@SpidFightFR No problem, you have a nice day too!

TheNamelessWonderer · 2022-06-23T23:00:31Z

If I use ProtonGE 7-10 do the cutscenes play or do they get skipped? Also it says Proton 7.0-2 that it is playable? Does playable mean without cutscenes?

SpidFightFR · 2022-06-24T16:51:27Z

Hey @TheNamelessWonderer , with protonGE 7-10, cutscenes are skipped with a black screen and no sounds for a few seconds, then skips to the next menu.

That is for the Video cutscenes.
Concerning cutscenes in the game engine, they play without problem.

TheNamelessWonderer · 2022-06-24T19:12:55Z

Oh that makes more sense. I loaded it up with Proton-GE 7.20 and a cutscene played after new game but it must be in engine. It's odd that Proton-GE can't play them because it can play WMV files in other games just fine.

@TheNamelessWonderer I believe it's because of the codec or something, cuz in VLC, they are playing very badly (cuz DMC1 is very old)...

VanGrx · 2022-07-26T00:04:14Z

Can confirm the game and videos work perfectly with GE-Proton7-24 and above!

jonnyledger · 2022-07-29T15:31:27Z

Tested GE-Proton7-24 and 7-27 on the steamdeck and FMV cutscenes are still skipped - it's not obvious that you're missing anything as in-engine cutscenes play fine.

Yeah. Got excited too early it seems. 😞 Sorry for that!

min1up · 2022-08-27T00:42:50Z

Tested the current Proton Experimental. The cutscenes now render. However, they render upside down.
This game is very close to working!

ChaosBlades · 2022-09-19T21:53:09Z

Can confirm.
Subtitles are the correct way around.
Seems the audio is layered on the cutscenes. The background music plays fine but when someone talks or there is an effect sound the audio will get scratchy and the video will slightly slow down.

VikingSchism · 2022-12-24T19:20:51Z

Can also confirm that videos play upside down, and with noisy audio on Proton Experimental. Seeing as the videos are just stored as is in the game files I wanted to try manually flipping the videos to see if that would fix it but couldn't work out a way to achieve that - the videos are stored in WMV format which makes them awkward to work with.

Maybe you could flip it using some program like ffmpeg? That works for a lot of things

coatlessali · 2023-01-08T00:37:50Z

I wrote a script that flips the games videos using ffmpeg. It seems to have issues with DMC1 and works with DMC2/3. Place it into the DMC HD folder. Syntax is ./dmc_flip.sh [game], with [game] being dmc1/dmc2/dmc3. I have no clue how well it works for every cutscene in DMC3, but hopefully Proton gets the necessary fixes at some point.

ChaosBlades · 2023-04-25T13:20:23Z

As of Proton Experimental Bleeding-Edge 8.0 and Mesa 23.2.0-devel the cut scenes are still upside down and cut scene audio is still slightly distorted.

Proton version: Proton Experimental (DD/MM/YYYY: 09/06/2023)

ALSO TESTED WITH A STEAM DECK, BOTH YIELD THE SAME RESULTS

I confirm:

[ X ] that I haven't found an existing compatibility report for this game.
[ X ] that I have checked whether there are updates for my system available.

I have attached a video demonstrating the sound distortions on the Steam Deck and a logfile below.

Symptoms

In cutscenes, sound distortions can be observed. Other than that, the game is functionally fine.

Reproduction

Open DMCHD
Boot up DMC3
While the opening cutscene plays, sound distortions will be able to be observed. It is worth noting that the distortions are not random and are at the exact same points both on my desktop and my Steam Deck.

matthewpetch · 2023-09-13T02:21:12Z

I'm getting the same issue as @ardishco-the-great on a Steam Deck running latest proton experimental (2023/09/13)

also the cutscene is now no longer flipped (it's still flipped in 8.0-3, so experimental has fixed that)

Danteska · 2023-10-08T13:22:31Z

For some reason, enabling any kind of compatibility breaks the cutscenes, at least in DMC1.

If you enable Proton 8.0.4 they're flipped vertically.
If you enable any GE, they're green and get skipped.
If you play the game normally, the cutscenes play okayish, they're not flipped vertically, but the sound is a bit distorted due to the low quality audio codec for the FMVs.

I tried the ffmpeg workaround shared on ProtonDb (not the same as the one posted above), but it just flips them vertically again, although it does provide a better audio codec. Maybe ffmpeg + Proton 8.0.4 would work, but IIRC last time I tried this with 8.0.3, they were green and got skipped anyway.

Experimental seems to have gone back to the green screen on opening cutscene since I last tested
