Troubleshooting

To add new solutions, please open a pull request, issue or contact me directly.

Game does not start at all

1. Check & update the game version in your launcher
2. Apply the correct modifications

StartThreadpoolIo not found in KERNEL32.dll

• Use Wine 5.3 or newer. This function has been added recently.

Graphics bugs/issues

• Check whether your GPU supports Vulkan:
  • inofficial list, Intel, nVIDIA, AMD
  • If yes -> download winetricks
  • Install the DLL package dxvk (stable version)
• Launch the game using proton
• Try wine 5.19-staging (or newer)

Mouse/keyboard input issues

1. winecfg -> capture mouse in full screen
2. regedit -> HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\X11 Driver set REG_SZ UseTakeFocus to N
   • Lutris already does this by default.

Switching between workspaces causes the view to "spin"

• Open the ESC/Paimon menu, move the mouse and close it again
• Run the game in a non-fullscreen virtual desktop
  • wine explorer /desktop=anyname,1600x900 cmd /k launcher.bat
• Change the in-game resolution setting
  • Focus the (virtual) desktop
  • Focus the game window again
  • Change the resolution back to fullscreen

Weak graphics, slow game

Please keep in mind that the minimal specifications also apply for Linux. Do not expect a performance gain compared to Windows native.

1. Change the detail level to 1.0 other values may be slower
2. Lower the resolution. Edit launcher.bat and append following arguments:
   • -screen-width XXX -screen-height YYY -screen-fullscreen 1
   • or change the virtual desktop's size (if present)
3. See also: Unity CLI args
   • -screen-quality is only applied to the first login scene, hence useless
