Description fin4478 2019-01-24 05:04:23 UTC 
The game did work a month ago. When using AMDVLK there is no freeze, the game just wont start by other problems. Using DXVK 0.95

I tested with kernel from 4.19 to 5.0-rc3. Only garbage strings in /var/log/messages when the system freezes. I must use the power button to restart the PC.

The game works with nvidia drivers according to:
https://www.protondb.com/app/750920

Install the game to latest wine-staging:
 wine Steam.exe -applaunch 974630

I did see something like this messages when switching to a virtual terminal:
amdgpu_sysfs_ioctl ERROR amdgpu parser failed.

Comment 1 fin4478 2019-01-27 04:47:35 UTC 
I tested with a clean wine prefix, dxvk 0.96 and I  have the  same problem. When starting the game, I have the following lines in the virtual terminal:

[drm:amdgpu_cs_ioctl [amdgpu]] *ERROR* Failed to initialize parser -125!
[drm:amdgpu_cs_ioctl [amdgpu]] *ERROR* Failed to initialize parser -125!

Comment 2 fin4478 2019-01-30 03:28:03 UTC 
The game runs with the latest AMDVLk so this can be a llvm problem.
Comment 3 Samuel Pitoiset 2019-01-30 09:02:34 UTC 
RADV isn't AMDVLK.
SotTR is working fine here though. Re-opening because this might need more investigations.
Comment 4 fin4478 2019-02-08 03:19:39 UTC 
Feature request: Allow the end user choose the Mesa llvm version.
Why: llvm and Mesa are separate projects and llvm can cause problems in gaming. Mesa is difficult to build and that is why Oiba ppa uses buggy llvm 7.1.
Comment 5 fin4478 2019-02-26 06:37:13 UTC 
With Padoka ppa this game fails to start so the LLVM version is not the cause of this bug.

I did not have mesa-vulkan packages installed. The game runs with Padoka ppa, so LLVM 7.01 is the cause of this bug.
