  • So, uninstall the Windows/Proton version, install the Linux version, do the manual settings config change to OpenGL that I suggested above and your game will most likely run on Linux natively. Why have you stated you already tried using OpenGL on Linux native if it's not true?

  • " already tried using OpenGL on Linux native if it's not true?"
    and the question was if i have used the OpenGL version before before vulkan was a thing, and the answer to that is still no

    i did try it and i tried it again just now to be sure the game just auto closes no error

    steam goas transport fever ,launching, running and after at most 3 seconds defaults back to the way installed games look


    and the question was if i have used the OpenGL version before before vulkan was a thing, and the answer to that is still no

  • I would recommend you to edit ~/.local/share/Steam/userdata/<your steam user nr>/1066780/local/settings.lua and replace renderer = VULKAN with renderer = "OPENGL". Then the game will start use OpenGL instead of Vulkan. With OpenGL the game will run smoother in my experience, anyway.

    Have you already done this as suggested?

  • Can you please post the stdout after the change ? There now has to be a different error message that might bring us a step further to a solution, as it seems the problem probably isn't related to Vulkan :)

  • Seems like your game crashes now but without doing a coredump. Could you please post the output of ls -lt /home/clemens/.steam/debian-installation/userdata/343031160/1066780/local/crash_dump and (sudo) coredumpctl list ?

  • Then please write that the command did not work instead of leaving it out.

    I thought/hoped ubuntu does have coredumpctl preinstalled. Try to find the necessary pkg with apt search systemd-coredump and install it. Then, start the game again & after it crashed run the command that didn't work.

  • How you installed steam or smth. related to systemd-coredump? Please be precise in your posts, this isn't the 1st time I just have to guess. :/


    If it's steam you're asking about, posting the steam system information may be the quickest way, we'll have to see. But posting the output of apt list --installed would be a good idea for further troubleshooting anyway.
