So i was trying to play spiderman and this popped up. I have the latest graphics drivers and all of that, but I have no idea why this is happening. None of my other games that I have, have this issue. https://0x0.st/opDV.png
#Can't open spiderman, incorrect fonts and weird error

- What distro?
- Did you purchase it from steam or elsewhere?
- How are you running the game?
I'm sure with a bit more info filled out, someone can help point you in the right direction 🙂

- Void
- its not on other places than steam afaik
- lutris + wine ( i tried different versions like ge-proton etc but none work)
I have the up to date mesa-vulkan drivers i do not have amdvlk. I think the first step is to fix the font issue then we can see what the real error is. I tried putting corefonts etc in the $WINEPREFIX/drive_c/windows/Fonts/ directory but nothing changed. I never had this issue on other games even when they had different languages. I don't have any other fonts installed on my void installation so I was not suppose to even see things like chinese characters or jp but i could in wine in those other games.

Have you tried to run it from steam and check the logs?

I never use lutris and always play from steam directly before but, what's the lutris version did you use? Oh, also tell me the proton versions you used for this.
placid shore
the latest version of lutris
also I used
lutris-fshack-7.2 , lutris-GE-Proton7-27 through to the latest one available on the github page
i tired putting the settings to low on spiderman before starting the game as I hear people having issues about that. But it was hard to do since everything was just squares.
However a window actually opened of spiderman before crashing so i think that is something to look into
and other people claim this issue of the gpu driver is normal and the game should still run. So I think it would be good if we can find a solution to the font problem

Sorry, I was busy working before. Had a lot of task to do recently. Maybe try lutris version around 6.0 and earlier. If that's not working, then it'll be hard cause I never seen something like this before (especially the font part).

hmm this is weird i will see if i can find the solution on reddit by posting around
