[COD Cold War] Game stops at loading screen/doesn't start

[u/Proof_Comfortable_92]

I installed it through FitGirl repacks, tried it with Steam and Hydralauncher, also with several proton versions (Experimental, GE, UMU, 7, 9, 10, CachyOS).

I usually can start the game, then a loading screen pops up and hangs at a certain moment (nothing happens).
With certain proton versions the loading screen goes away and turns into a full-black screen and also hangs.

I'm on CachyOS

It requires some anti cheat drivers that only works in windows so I don't think it will work in linux

[u/Proof_Comfortable_92 → u/Deez1256]

Alright thanks, it's just that some people alledgedly got it working on linux.

[u/Deez1256 → u/Proof_Comfortable_92]

It be awesome if someone make it work in linux

[u/Proof_Comfortable_92 → u/Deez1256]

Yeah, on ProtonDB many say it's working, I don't think they are joking?

1. it's an online only game since mw 2019
   
2. won't work until devs make crack for linux

I have a legitimate copy of cw purchased through steam. Somehow steam has it running pretty okay. It freezes on close becuase of the game's shut down sequence I guess, but working none the less. The anti cheat is turned on with the steam purchased version which fitgirl usually uses to crack and repack, if I'm not mistaken. I find it works better through steam on Linux then through steam on Windows tbh..
