I have an AMD Radeon RX5700XT, which supports Shader Model 6.7.

I have steam installed, and Horizon Forbidden West (which has a platinum rating on the ProtonDB) is installed. However, I can't get it to start. I can load the launcher, but as soon as I click start it crashes on the Sony splash screen. The only console output I see is this:

Code:

(process:5559): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: 21:35:13.926: g_object_unref: assertion 'G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed

I have the latest dxvk and vkd3d drivers installed, though Steam doesn't use those. I can only get to the launcher screen if I force Steam to use version 8.0-5. Any other version and it can't find Shader Model 6.6 support.

Any idea how to fix this? Are there some options I need to pass to Steam?

Cheers,

EE

UPDATE: If I set PROTON_LOG=1 in the launch options, it starts the game up to the start screen, but then when I click the "New Game" button it goes to a black screen and freezes. The log file fills up at a rate of 1GB every 30s or so. If I don't have the log option set, the game crashes immediately.

Any help?

Solved it. I also had amdvlk installed, and it was severely interfering with vkd3d-proton, both with Horizon: Forbidden West, and EVE Online. Uninstalling it solved the issue; both run flawlessly.
