try changing the "filename" in the d3d9.ini from "steam_api.dll" to "Galaxy.dll". For me it worked. Unfortunately the UI/HUD centers on the left monitor for me, not on the middle one (iam using 3monitor resolution). :(


edit: got it centered now. i used the wrong version of his fix. 0.2 instead of 0.1.1. with 0.1.1 everything centers correctly. :D

Thanks for the reply. That was a good suggestion, unfortunately the game still crashes. I noticed in the log even after editing the d3d9.ini file some part of the mod is still trying to reference the steam_api.dll file.

Below is the d3d9.log file the mod created:

I got it to work with Proton 3.16 and D9VK through Lutris on Linux but sound was glitchy and camera went crazy. Proton 4.11 and 5.0 didn't work.
Isn't there some manual workaround like a hex edit?
I mean the game already renders properly in 3440x1440. Even a stretched UI from 1920x1080 would do.
