That’s the thing, I don’t really have anything special in the launch options. When it worked all I had was `PROTON_LOG=1 gamemoderun mangohud %command%`.
I feel incredibly stupid that I didn’t keep the log from the time it worked so I could diff it with a log of when it crashes. But when I get it to load again I’ll definitely backup the log file before anything else.
Does not seem to work for me no matter what I try :/
I'd be nice to find a way to consistently replicate this.

As Rokolell mentioned the game now crashes instead of displaying the previous message.
Funnily enough, as I was trying to debug the issue, I had an instance where the game booted up all the way to the Main Menu! Not sure what happened that time, and I still haven’t been able to replicate it.
I’ll keep debugging and trying to replicate the time that it worked, and document how exactly I got it to run, so I’ll keep you guys posted.
Unfortunately I did not try to get into a game, so I don’t know if it would actually play, but I’m fairly certain it would work since it passed the EAC check.
This does seem to indicate that the latest build is almost ready for Linux support, and some tweaking will probably make it run. If this is intentional, I don’t understand why Behaviour wouldn’t update us on this, to at least get us to be quiet for a bit, as it does seem they’re doing some work in the background (or it might just be Valve, who knows at this point).
Maybe share your launch options and stuff? We could try to replicate it, maybe?

At this point it's just sad. Just plain old disappointingly sad. Nothin more nothing less.

just popping in to let the Steam Deck / Linux squad know that VHS is now available to play in Early Access and can confirm it still works under Proton.
i hope DbD can catch up soon, but otherwise, see you in the Beyond!
I second this. Performance leaves something to be desired, my PC isn't all that good, but definitely above the recommended specs, yet it still manages to be very slow. That's Nvidia GPUs on Linux for you :/

@MandyTalk The problem isn't us not accepting that you guys aren't ready to release on Linux, the problem is noone telling us why you aren't ready to release on Linux. We'd be happy to wait months or maybe even another year for a Linux release if we just knew why we had to wait this long.
Please understand that it feels a little like being tricked into continuously following a community and development path that seemingly just refrains from clicking a box to spite a not unsubstantial part of users.
Couldn't agree more.

New patch, same old EAC error...
Why even mention support if you're not going to give an ETA?

Linux is opening the door to even more cheaters.
Please explain how.

well, i'll just say this. if they were to take all the extra effort to unnecessarily lock the game to just Steam Deck, i will no longer play DbD.
i'm already not buying anything else until Proton support is enabled.
It would make no sense for them to make the game playable only on SteamOS, as the work they put into making the game proton-compatible will pay off more if they don't.
I also do not know of any game that has done this? If there are examples let me know, but there's legitimately no reason for any developer to do this.

On the 6.0.0 PTB:
Good News! The game now loads up to the loading screen! It spits out a " Quit game - EAC client failed to initialize " error, but the game does actually start and it does go further than it did before ( aka hanging on the EAC loading screen ). This at least tells us that they are actively working on Proton support.

+1 for Linux Support!
