Shadow of the Tomb Raider crashing during loading (SolusOS)
Julius Nov 20, 2019
Hmm, anyone else having issues running Shadow of the Tomb Raider on a non-supported Linux version? Other Feral ports run fine, so it seems to be an specific issue with this port.

I am on Solus Linux running with the latest Nvidia drivers (440.31) and the launcher starts fine, but then during loading (when the company logos drop in from the top) it just freezes.

It's still possible to alt-tab out of the game, but the mouse stays captured, which makes it somewhat hard to quit the crashed game.

Anyone has a suggestion what I could do to fix this?

Have you tried using the steam run-time? You can turn off the Solus LSI run-time in the LSI options. I know when Rise of the Tomb Raider came out it was not compatible until the run-time was updated. I have not had any problems on Debian use the 430.64 drivers.

Yeah, that was my first thought as well, but I actually had that already disabled due to some other previous issues. Maybe I should try enabling it instead? Hmmm...

Ha, re-enabling it actually worked. Not sure why I had disabled it in the first place... I think there was some problem with a Steam beta a few weeks ago.

Thanks for helping out!
