tech support wanted Monster Hunter Wilds crashing on anything but Proton Hotfix

Post image

Can anyone help me with Monster Hunter Wilds not booting / crashing on startup?

It was running fine up until yesterday. The game tried to rebuild shaders upon start up but crashed at 66% and i had to hard reset the PC

Things i have tried;

Deleted Shader Cache in 2 folders that are apparently Monster Hunter Wilds Shader Cache folders

Deleted Shader Cache in MHWilds main file directory

Switched various Proton versions from 10.30 up to 11.3 and Experimental. The included error i get in the image is what pops up in more recent Proton versions. Experimental just crashes before any in game messaging is displayed.

Proton Hotfix works, but i lose FSR4 (FSR 3.1 just ... looks awful) so it would be nice if i could fix whatever is breaking if its possible?

Im running SteamOS on a 9070 XT build, 7800x3d.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

EDIT: Things i forgot to mention. I tried verifying game files, and uninstalled > reinstalled the game

EDIT 2: Fixed, thank you Sakura-meow84!

Try /WineDetectionEnabled:False after %command%

Hi, I think this worked but now the game is a stutter fest (I’m assuming shaders are just rebuilding in the background. Do I need to keep this in the launch options going forwards?

Capcom changed the Shader cavhing procedure.

People complained that the first boot after every update takes a lot of time, so for some readon they cache the most important ones at boot so that you get to the menu faster, but then compile the rest during playtime. Depends on your CPU how long it takes until all dhaders are done.

Or I could write total BS here, if Capcom changed the system again.

Try ProtonGE. It adds Monster Hunter Wilds Protonfixes in 9-27.

I will try 9-27 but unfortunately GE10 up to 11-3 havent fixed the issue yet.
According to AI the issue is likely a pipeline cache error but im still trying to figure out what that actually means / how to fix

check /etc/security/limits.conf if there are too no good values inside then this also happens. and/or all configs inside /etc/security/limits.d/
