Steam games wont launch

Support Gaming
2

Hello yayiz

Here is what I usually do when a game doesn’t start with steam automatically:

  1. I had the same issue with CS:GO for some time. Restarting Steam one or two times solved the problem most the time. Maybe restart your computer.

  2. Check ProtonDB
    Entry for Far Cry 3: https://www.protondb.com/app/220240
    Try the recommended settings or launch parameters (right click on game in your library → properties → general)

  3. Try different Proton versions (right click on the game in your library → properties → compatibility)
    Since the ProtonDB entries for older Proton versions are quite positive, you can try Proton 5 first.

  4. Google search

Hope you can find a solution.

3

Launch steam from the terminal. Check the output there when you try to launch the game.

How can I fix this issues

This is the output I get when I try to launch the game

Not much clue about why it doesn’t want to start…
You can try setting a different Proton version from the game’s properties, as @sias suggested.

I’m fairly new linux user. I have several problems about nvidia graphics and steam. I though I solved the graphic card releted problems but I’m not sure now. This is the error I get when I launch Farc Cry 3. All suggestions are welcome

The error I get:

Does the gameoverlay of steam work? If so, then this can be ignored.

I have these same error messages, but many games works fine. Just ignore these errors, they have nothing to do with your problem.

The specific messages have to do with your problem in the log, I guess:

  • Try to verify game files:
    Steam → select game → properties → Local files → Click “verify integrity of games files”

  • Check protonDB 6.3-8 (Many people said it works well in ProtonDB forum)

  • What is the output of journalctl -p err -b after checking when the issue is still there.

It does not show error of steam, but gdm and nvidia driver.

12

what should I do?

13

I do not know because it lacks some error information that you need to know. I am not Nvidia user.

But I have some questions:

  • Did this game “Far Cry 3” work well before update? If so when is the update?
  • If no, is this game new to you?
  • Do all games not work? (You wrote “Steam games wont launch”)
14

There are multiple suggestions up this thread, on which you haven’t replied how well they worked or not. Have you tried them?

15

I tried different proton versions (not all of them) but the result was same.

16

I bought the game 2 days ago. Well I am not a gamer person but abouth a month ago I downloaded StarWars The CloneWars game. It didn’t open that time either. I thought maybe there was a problem with the game so I didn’t pursue this issue. I didn’t try another game

17

I am currently using nvidia-intel hybrid gpu. I have downloaded optimus-manager when I install manjaro. Maybe problem is related to this

18

Hybrid graphics often cause issues yes, also make sure that hdd or sdd your installing the game on is formated as ext4 or btrfs, many games don’t launch on an NTFS drive!

19

i had a very similar problem i had my steam library of games on a ntfs drive and even though i had the drive mounted at boot through manjaro the games still wouldn’t boot from steam/proton, i had to edit the fstab file under /etc/fstab and add the following line

UUID=“uuid-of-the-ntfs-partition” /run/media/“username”/“mountname” ntfs uid=1000,gid=1000,rw,user,exec,umask=000 0 0

example:

UUID=F048C17348C346DC /run/media/joconnell/Data ntfs uid=1000,gid=1000,rw,user,exec,umask=000 0 0

find your uuid by typing this in a terminal

sudo blkid

20

Be sure and check if you have installed steam multiple times on your pc on different drives.

21

Best way to use optimus/steam is with the prime-run command. Optimus manager has been causing issues recently
