    Hi, sorry if I necro but I'd like to know if anyone encountered a similar error to mine: when launching BO2 via Plutonium, the launches closes himself, and then a window pops up saying: "DirectX encountered a unrecoverable error.". I looked up on internet and it seems that it comes from a broken DirectX install but I doubled checked all Wine dependencies were installed, and everything seems in place, the DirectX log is also not printing any errors. Anyone in my situation that has a solution?
    Thanks.

        @T6Aro OK I figured it out. I had to disable "Enable DXVK-NVAPI / DLSS" under Lutris, now I get a black screen when launching but it's a step in the right direction I guess. (Using Proton-7.0rc2-GE-1, Lutris)

          @T6Aro 2021-12-20-01:15:10-screenshot.png Finally got it working! I ditched Lutris and wine ~/.wine/drive_c/USER/GAMEFOLDER/plutonium.exe and it worked? I installed the Redist folder previously so I don't know if it changed anything. Hope this can help someone!

            @T6Aro On a fresh install of the Plutonium Lutris script I get a white screen with a DirectX error: "D3D11 Error: Unable to create device and swap chain." and then "Failed to initialize D3D11 context"

              Finished setting this up on Arch Linux, and gameplay wise everything is fine. However if I try to change my video settings in the main menu, after hitting "apply" my game crashes and I'm kicked to desktop. My settings won't stick either, so I'm stuck with whatever is default. Any tips?

                Lukako Managed to change most of my MW3 settings through a .cfg file. Having the same issue as @T6Aro where starting BO just results in a DirectX error with no logging. Ditching Lutris and just going with wine works there as well...

                Also, are you guys able to connect to friends in custom games? I'm not sure if connection errors are on my end or not, I can connect just fine to any dedicated server.

                  Your friend must start the match first (or you if you are host). The host must have UPnP enabled to make hole-punching work. However, hole-punching does not always succeed. In this case you can port forward manually.

                  If you need to port forward, the port for the game can be found by typing net_port in the in-game console. The value of this dvar is 27016 by default on MW3, 4976 on BO2 and 28960 on WaW. The protocol is UDP.

                  After this you will be able to play together.

                      Wanted to leave a warning here for other users, but this completely broke Wine on my system with all AMD hardware. A simple delete of the .wine directory helped revert everything.

                        On the latest stable Wine I'm completely unable to install dotnet48 or any other dotnet 4.x for that matter, it always ends in command wine dotNetFx40_Full_x86_x64.exe /q /c:install.exe /q returned status 67. Aborting.

                        Does anyone else know the fix for this?

                          Enova I was able to fix this issue on my machine by clearing wine and winetricks caches

                          ~/.cache/wine
                          ~/.cache/winetricks

                          Simply deleting the sub-folders and forcing everything to re-download seemed to do the trick

                            Strangely, I'm having issues regarding no audio and frame drops in BO2, even though WaW works flawlessly?
                            Open to any suggestions

                            Solved, switching the wine prefix to WinXP fixed all sound issues for me.
                            BO2 still seems to have some minor stutter, but that could very well be dxvk shader cache building

                              stelmo Seems like this didn't work for me, I made sure to remove ~/.wine, ~/.cache/wine, and ~/.cache/winetricks. damn

                                @T6Aro Thank you. I've tried the tutorial countless times now and this solved it. Works great with BO2, MW3 and WaW. Only thing is that, on exit the launcher stays frozen and I have to force quit it, but that works for me.

                                  @T6Aro You just put plutonium.exe in your game folder from steam and ran it with wine and it worked?

                                    I got it working (I think winetricks had a broken package and updated it) but now I get the "DirectX encountered an unrecoverable error" stuff 😕

                                      Is the controller support working for T6? Cannot get my controller to pick up in game. I do have the xinput dependency along with the rest in the guide. Controller is also working in other games. Is anyone successfully using this with a controller?

                                          RatchetRussian do you know how to fix this without lutris? Whenever i try to download the lutris installer it always fails. I can however play it through plain wine just that my mouse stutters the whole time
