Reproduction

Open the game

[XRaTiX]

Thats weird,I was able open the game just fine with Proton 6.3.7-rc,can you try deleting the prefix and recreate with Proton 6.3.7-rc? The prefix is 1665460

[jqadev]

Laucher is partially broken on Proton ExperimentaI. I was unable to select full HD resolution because of some Win Forms error.

[rezzafr33]

I didn't experience any problem related to the settings.exe, I do have desync problem with online play, similar to PES 2021 and PES 2022, I bet we can install vcrun2019_ge to fix this.

[Sultech]

I had pop tiling running which would just crash the game. Proton 6.3-7 rc does work I will close the issue

[rezzafr33]

Don't close this issue, this will be where we report any problem related to eFootball 2022, also desync issue isn't fixed yet. I can confirm that installing vcrun2019_ge fix the issue, but that is a workaround not a proper solution.

[Sultech]

does anyone know how to open the settings again so I can change the resolution

[jqadev]

@Sultech try this https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/3227#issuecomment-581988947

did pes 21 got online with vcrun2019? pes 20 i have tested

@rezzafr33 how do I install vcrun2019_ge I have tried this, protontricks 1665460 /mnt/gamedisk/Linux/Text-Files/vcrun2019_ge.verb But it dosen't install here is the log: log.txt

There are 2 problems:

• first, wine's start.exe packaged in proton doesn't accept /exec argument, so you need to either remove or change that argument, for example /wait.
• second, the installation will fail because it can't replace symbolic links to read only files, to fix this you can utilize PROTON_DLL_COPY env arguments on Launch Options, here is mine :

PROTON_DLL_COPY="atl1*.dll,concrt1*.dll,msvcp1*.dll,msvcr1*.dll,vcamp1*.dll,vcomp1*.dll,vccorlib1*.dll,vcruntime1*.dll,api-ms-win-crt-conio-l1-1-0.dll,api-ms-win-crt-heap-l1-1-0.dll,api-ms-win-crt-locale-l1-1-0.dll,api-ms-win-crt-math-l1-1-0.dll,api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0.dll,api-ms-win-crt-stdio-l1-1-0.dll,ucrtbase.dll" %command%

Then at least run the game once before execute protontricks!!, I took the value from proton GE here.

did pes 21 got online with vcrun2019? pes 20 i have tested

Yes it does, for now both pes2021 and efootball2022 require vcrun2019 for online match, not sure which native dll(s) are required , but I think ucrtbase.dll is a must.

@rezzafr33 I figured out a different way to do it, I added the prefix to lutris I then used lutris's wine to run this command winetricks /mnt/gamedisk/Linux/Text-Files/vcrun2019_ge.verb . After this only the VC_redist.x86 installed so I opened VC_redist.x64 in the prefix and installed it. Now online is working

[FanderWasTaken]

Hi. I have an issue with DS4 controller. With Proton 6.3-7 LED light keeps blinking blue repeatedly

There is a simpler one, put ucrtbase.dll in the same folder as eFootball.exe.

wget "https://download.microsoft.com/download/9/3/F/93FCF1E7-E6A4-478B-96E7-D4B285925B00/vc_redist.x64.exe"
cabextract vc_redist.x64.exe
cabextract a10
cp ucrtbase.dll  [SteamLibrary]/steamapps/common/eFootball/eFootball/Binaries/Win64/

also I don't know if this necessary, but just in case, use this launch options:

WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ucrtbase.dll=n,b" %command%

Hello. The game now crashes with Proton 6.3-8 and proton experimental: when I launch it, it opens a black window and then it closes after few seconds.. It works flawlessly with Proton 6.3-7 instead. Here's the logs proton-experimental.log proton_6.3-8.log

[CiscoDeTours]

I'm able to launch the game and play online on Ubuntu 20.04.3 using Proton 5.13-6 and this method:

https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/5187#issuecomment-980507627

To avoid being redirected to a page from Codefusion with the following message: "Currently your game purchase cannot be re-validated successfully" set properly the %command% in the launch options.

After finishing or quitting the pre-train match I get stuck in this loading screen:

I have the same issue on steam deck. just fix it by changing to proton 6.3-8 in properties compatibily

[hfalmeida2022]

Installing vcrun2019 with protontricks doesn't do anything for online play, unfortunately.

[rezzafr33]

vcrun2019 doesn't install ucrtbase.dll, see my last post https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/5187#issuecomment-980507627.

[hfalmeida2022]

vcrun2019 doesn't install ucrtbase.dll, see my last post #5187 (comment).

yeah, i was able to play a few online matches. Thank you

[Bito98]

Efootball had a major update yesterday and now it gets stuck on a loading screen after the initial tutorial. It seems it's trying to connect to the internet. Here is the log with proton experimental steam-1665460.log

Update: The game works by following this method #5187 (comment) and using Proton 6.3-8 Problem persists with Proton experimental and proton 7.0-1

[hfalmeida2022]

It's working fine for me

I think I've followed all the steps in this thread, but still not able to play any online matches. I can load up the Dream Team and play matches vs AI, but not against other players. This is what I've done so far:

1. Install eFootball
2. Change Compatibility to force Proton 6.3-8
3. Run the game once, which will allow protontricks to setup prefixes
4. Download a copy of rezzafr33's vcrun2019_ge.verb
5. Run protontricks cli (might have to remove the /wait):

protontricks 1665460 vcrun2019_ge.verb

6. Use this Launch Option to fix permissions:

PROTON_DLL_COPY="atl1*.dll,concrt1*.dll,msvcp1*.dll,msvcr1*.dll,vcamp1*.dll,vcomp1*.dll,vccorlib1*.dll,vcruntime1*.dll,api-ms-win-crt-conio-l1-1-0.dll,api-ms-win-crt-heap-l1-1-0.dll,api-ms-win-crt-locale-l1-1-0.dll,api-ms-win-crt-math-l1-1-0.dll,api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0.dll,api-ms-win-crt-stdio-l1-1-0.dll,ucrtbase.dll" %command%

7. Use this to get ucrtbase.dll in same folder as eFootball.exe:

wget "https://download.microsoft.com/download/9/3/F/93FCF1E7-E6A4-478B-96E7-D4B285925B00/vc_redist.x64.exe"
cabextract vc_redist.x64.exe
abextract a10
cp ucrtbase.dll  [SteamLibrary]/steamapps/common/eFootball/eFootball/Binaries/Win64/

8. Use this Launch Option to start the game:

WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ucrtbase.dll=n,b" %command%

Still no online play. Am I missing a step?

EDIT: Disregard. The above steps work correctly. It was a network issue on my end involving not being able to connect with a VPN.

[hfalmeida2022]

Have anyone had crashes when trying to start a match, offline or online, against ai or players, when the screen with the button to open the tactics screen is suppose to appear?

I'm having this since yesterday.

EDIT: Ignore this. I just needed to reboot

[rezzafr33]

looks like cabextract isn't exist on steamdeck, maybe you can extract ucrtbase.dll with another pc.

[chiki10]

I’ve putted dll in folder Win64 manually and i can play with COM but in online matches have “error connecting eFootball server”
