Has anyone be able to run Elden Ring on Gentoo steam?
There are some articles recommending to use flatpak version of Steam to run the Game. I don't want extra repo support and if gentoo overlay can do it itself then it's best.
I have wine installed; I tried copy-paste trick of steam_protected_game.exe; used proton experimental with bleeding edge; but Elden Ring crashes after white screen. Can someone help? |

Elden Ring seems to the EOS implementation of EAC.
From what I've experienced and read, that type of EAC implementation doesn't currently play nice with Gentoo+steam-overlay. Is that the overlay you're using for Steam?
I haven't got around to making a bug report of it yet.
Please, post the contents of the following files:
...steamapps/compatdata/1245620/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Roaming/EasyAntiCheat/anticheatlauncher.log
...steamapps/compatdata/1245620/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Roaming/EasyAntiCheat/service.log
And the contents of loader.log, which is found inside the two folders that have a foldername consisting of random characters & numerals, at ...steamapps/compatdata/1245620/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Roaming/EasyAntiCheat/ .
If you can't seem to find it, you can locate it by running find * -iname "loader.log" inside the EasyAntiCheat folder to see it's file path.
Could you also capture the output that gets printed in your terminal when Elden Ring is trying to launch? |

I've been having this issue with steam-overlay as well. I installed the flatpak version alongside steam-overlay and it works without issue.

I have put the information requested in this gist:
https://gist.github.com/daveknippers/ef28b44d53d1b049aa803ac2052a4be5
Thanks for taking a look at it. I'd love to see that fixed. If you need anything else, please let me know. |

I have it working...
There was a time it worked with the "proton experimental bleeding-edge" but it doesn't anymore (crashes on white screen at at start-up).
It does work with Glorious Eggroll 7.9 (just extract it to ~/.local/share/Steam/compatibilitytools.d and restart steam, it'll show up as a "compatability tool")
On to multiplayer...
The EAC launcher bitches out in a native steam, but can be bypassed by setting | /etc/hosts: | | 127.0.0.1 modules-cdn.eac-prod.on.epicgames.com |
The EAC launcher works in a flatpak steam, but my controller won't so that's a no go for me.
Up until the 1.04 patch dropped yesterday, the /etc/hosts hack worked fine, but now forces you to play in "offline" mode.
My own investigations continue, I think I need a doze version of strace to see where the native version fails in comparison to the flatpak, I only see file calls to the "outside" if I strace the pid running under wine.
Just in case someone has some input, a working EAC launcher downloads a file called linux32_64 from modules-cdn.eac-prod.on.epicgames.com and extracts it to two files easyanticheat_linux_x86_x64.eac and easyanticheat_linux_x86_x64.eac.metadata. The "non-working" launcher gets the download file, but doesn't extract it into the files needed (hacky workarounds setting the working files to 444 also cause failure). |

davidknippers,
Your log files are identical to mine at https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1147585-highlight-.html
Although I cannot say for sure if Elden Ring not launching is affected by EOS EAC, it seems a very likely candidate as we're seeing EAC failures and the game works on Flatpak, on which EAC also works.
Unfortunately, I do not know what could be done or how to start troubleshooting this myself, but Chewi gave a suggestion on Github. |

The EAC issue was caused by export libc_cv_hashstyle=no in the ebuild of glibc-2.34-r10.
A fix has been pushed out and will probably soon land stable on ::gentoo.
For those who run amd64 systems and don't want to upgrade into a testing version of glibc, I've created this simple patch to apply for glibc-2.34-r10.
