I’m nearly complete with this game but keep getting random crashes. I’ve tried switching Proton versions about 5 times now and it’s the same thing.

Is there somewhere I can go to check out logs to tell me what might be causing these crashes?

Running on CachyOS in Steam.

Update: so for whatever reason, it’s not happening after adding a command argument to the game to begin logging.

This was happening when I was trying to clear out the Redwood RV Park Ambush Camp. Sometimes it happened just sneaking around after a few minutes, and sometimes as long as me clearing out the camp and then would crash.

I just tried today so I could capture logs and was able to clear the camp and have been outside of the camp for a few minutes now without any crashes.

Up to this point, the game has been working with next to no issues. A crash here and there, but nothing like this one. Maybe something in this camp is causing an issue on Linux or with Proton? One difference in this playthrough was that I went an alternate route. Instead of going around the side by the dam, I went through the front and also went guns blazing instead of stealthing it.

    Thank you!

    I actually did check ProtonDB too and was surprised to see that as well. I searched for people with issues and didn’t find any in just a quick skim. But I planned to come back and filter for specific issues after checking logs.

    My GPU is a RTX 4080 Super. The drivers are the stock drivers that come with CachyOS. I never installed any drivers for my GPU or any of my components, for that matter.

      The latest (proprietary) NVIDIA driver is nvidia-580. I am not familiar with CachyOS, but it may be defaulting to the FOSS NVIDIA driver, Nouveau, which I personally have had stability issues with.

      You can check the driver with the command lshw -c video or nvidia-smi

      Another thing you can do is activate logging of Proton with the the launch option PROTON_LOG=1 %command% in Steam. This will dump a file into your home folder.

        Thank you. It looks like according to nvidia-smi, I am running the proprietary driver and it is 580.95.05
