Cannot join realm (NPE)

Wicked Experimental Branch

Hi,

We’re 3 friends playing the experimental branch coop, however I cannot join their realm.

Reading the logs it seems to be a null pointer exception.

This results as stuck on loading screen and cannot proceed further with the play.

What we’ve tried:

  • deleting/creating new realms
  • Other player hosting
  • Changing the steam profile names to all latin characters

It seems that local is working, but shared realm not for me. Each time I do this I get a NPE.

Help, I want to play this game

In addition to that, today I verified the integrity of the game files, but still the same issue.

Here is an upload of player.log and crash.bin: 126.3 KB folder on MEGA

Ok, I managed to fix this issue:

  1. Completely remove the wine prefix rm -rf /var/mnt/data/SteamLibrary/steamapps/compatdata/1371980/ (replace your own library
  2. Then use Proton Experimental, not GE or other variants

I hope this helps someone

You are using Linux I presume?

Yes, of course I do :slight_smile:, but it still might be a bug :man_shrugging:

Nevertheless, I wanted to share the fix since I’m not the only one who has this problem.

I shared it on steam forums as well as mentioned on protondb (will be available in the next content refresh, 24 hours or so): https://www.protondb.com/app/1371980
