protonhax fails to find the executable about protonhax HOT 14 CLOSED

Helo @Hate9 ,

Thanks for reporting this.
I might need your help to figure this out as I tried some things here and could not reproduce the error.
because I did a quick try with Proton Experimental and GE 7.2, with cmd, exe and giberish as commands on a different game.

If you don't mind trying a few things for me and sharing the results here:

What proton version are you using ?

Can you try to run just protonhax run 211420 ?

Also, could you please try your command again without quotes, and using your terminal "path prediction" to form the path (the spaces will change to something like Dark\ Souls ?

Cheers,

from protonhax.

running with slashes instead of quotes gives the same error

and protonhax run 211420 just brings up the help menu

and I'm using 5.13-6 right now, but if I test with ge 7.2, it does appear to work
unfortunately, the game does not work with that version (I had to switch to testing a different game again to even test it)

from protonhax.

Thanks for the reply.

I cannot run more tests right now, but I will do it later today (I need to spin an endeavour linux to be sure).

On the meanwhile, could you try running the other game with 5.13 and check if it work ?

ProtonDB shows that DS:prepare to die might work with Proton 7.0-1 and 6.3-8.

If you like to debug it yourself:

Go to /usr/bin/protonhax

And add this on the second line of the file

set -x
exec >/tmp/protonhax.$$.log 2>&1

It will save protonhax debug log into /tmp/protonhax.*.log

And you can share it here.

What protonhax tries to do is to find the environment, the proton prefix, and pass the desired command.

Something like this

/usr/bin/envload /run/user/1000/protonhax/211430/env '/home/hate9/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Proton 5.13/proton' run what-needs-to-run-here.exe

Once you get this command, you can try to run it straight away on your terminal. If more error occurs we can get more details from it.

Hi @Hate9 ,

I could not replicate the problem yet, my suspicion is that the third argument for your proton installation is not being generated correctly on your case for some reason.

Could you please follow the steps I suggest before ?

I expect that you will find on your /tmp/protonhax.*.log something like this:
A B C run D
/usr/bin/envload /run/user/1000/protonhax/211420/env '/home/mabel/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Proton 5.13/proton' run what-needs-to-run-here.exe

C is the path to your Proton installation.
I need you to validate if C exists in your computer, if not, what would be the correct path.

While the game is running you can try run on the terminal:

/usr/bin/envload /run/user/1000/protonhax/211420/env correct_C run cmd

D can be either your exe or cmd.

By knowing the difference between the C protonhax is generating to the C in your machine, I might be able to fix it, if that is the problem.

from protonhax.

Ok, so we found the problem.

C is coming as waitforexitandrun, instead of the proton location.

This is a problem on the /usr/bin/protonhax line 29. printf "%s" "${@: -3:1}" > $phd/$SteamAppId/exe

Could you please add a new line above it(28) with the following

echo "$@"

Open your game, then find the logfile associated with init, over there you will find the echo line.

Every time you run something on proton, steam runs something like this:
`'/opt/SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/SteamLinuxRuntime_soldier'/_v2-entry-point --verb=waitforexitandrun -- '/home/person/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Proton 5.13'/proton waitforexitandrun '/home/person/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Game/Game.exe``

What the line 29 is doing, is looking for 3 arguments from the end. (It used to be the first, but we had to change with the advent of the soldier + 5.13)

It seems that on your case steam is calling something else at the end, and if we figure it out, I might be able to solve it, or at least to reproduce the problem.

from protonhax.

ohhhh ok, so I think I've figured out what's wrong
the issue is that I need to run the game with an additional startup flag (in this case, -phantom-break-on, for a specific mod I'm using), and protonhax must be reading that as one of the 3 arguments. I assume this means that the script generally has trouble with additional launch arguments?

anyway, the full log (including mod launch stuff that inexplicably got logged too) is as follows:

my full launch arguments (which I definitely should've thought to mention before) are as follows:
PROTON_USE_WINED3D9=1 WINEDLLOVERRIDES="dinput8,d3d9,DS_Overhaul,d3d9_Mod,steam_api=n,b" protonhax init %COMMAND% -phantom-break-on

from protonhax.

I see. Thanks for sharing that. Everything you put after %COMMAND% would interfere with protonhax and I can reproduce it here.

I will work on a better way to get the active proton environment, in the meanwhile if you need to run DSCM2 you can do on terminal by running:

/usr/bin/envload /run/user/1000/protonhax/211420/env '/mnt/Terrabyteous/Steam/steamapps/common/Proton 5.13/proton' run what-needs-to-run-here.exe

I will update it here once I get it working properly and deploy it on the AUR.

from protonhax.

I'm glad to see we know what the issue is, and I look forward to seeing an update to fix it.
However, the command you sent didn't actually work for me for some reason:
/usr/bin/envload /run/user/1000/protonhax/211420/env '/mnt/Terrabyteous/Steam/steamapps/common/Proton 5.13/proton' '/mnt/Terrabyteous/Steam/steamapps/common/Dark Souls Prepare to Die Edition/DSCM.exe'

from protonhax.

Maybe I gave you the wrong proton path, are you running using the 5.13 ?

Also, I think I fixed it.

I need to figure out how to update the version on AUR when I push to master on github.

For now, could you please rebuild the protonhax from AUR ? It might be working.

from protonhax.

if you look on the aur page (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/protonhax), you can see the last updated date.
I'll just replace the script on my machine with the new one

from protonhax.

If you rebuild it will get the newest from github. I need to fix my environment to update the aur package, but it will work the same.

from protonhax.

The AUR package was updated (I need to figure out if there is a way to get it done automatically).

Please let me know if it works.

from protonhax.

I will close this issue for now, please reopen if the problem persists.
