I can't get it to run past the Nvidia GameWorks logo. Just a straight crash back to SteamUI every time.
I've not changed any settings. If it's deck verified it should just work right?
Try using Proton Experimental.
Tried it. Also a whole bunch of other versions incl GE.
Found someone on Facebook with the same problem so at least it's not just me eh?!
Looks like we've both got Cryotools and decky power tools installed so it could be that.
Given I uninstalled it and its huge I cant check that just yet though.
I have the same problem and actually tried to reset cryotools and set back UMA back to 1gb. Still no luck.
The only real difference I see is forcing experimental or hotfix. That atleast gets me to the Nvidia logo. Else it’s crash to homescreen directly.
I see that the game creates 2 crash logs and a crash dump in its Bin home folder when crashing. Sadly no easy helpful informations in there.
3 of us! 3 of us! 3 of us!
I followed the example of the other person on Facebook and did a factory reset. Luckily I have most of my stuff on the SD card but i'm still going to have to set up a bunch of stuff again.
But more to the point, it worked!
I did a fresh install of BG onto deck storage (not SD) just to be sure (which still took forever cause 122GB) but I'm in and playing!
Found something else yesterday after rabbitholing down the steam forums. Now you solved your problem already. But hopefully that keeps it from coming back.
Currently there seems the a problem with PowerTools installed and the Game.
So if the game is crashing after the Nvidia logo (on experimental or hotfix) try to remove PowerTools and restart the Steamdeck.
If you tried a bunch of other proton versions, you may need to clear the compatdata dir for the game and then run again with experimental. The directory can get in a weird state with some games if you try to run multiple proton versions - i.e. one applies a fix on startup that breaks it in another version.
