Hi.
I am also experiencing the same problem. Epic Store just launch perfectly, and MudRunner starts, but after clicking the button to start the Tutorial the game vanishes. I also tried changing wine versions, enabling/disabling the use of system winetricks, doing the same with lutris runtime and other options, with no avail.
@flagsibh This is what i’m seeing too. I installed via Legendary, then try to run the exe via Lutris. It just exits with Return Code 1280. I’ve try a few things in winetricks (below) which hasn’t made any difference.
Hey guys, I also had the same issue with Mudrunner crashing to the desktop once I tried entering the tutorial. I also got this game from Epic, but I created a seperate WinePrefix and launcher for the game in Lutris to run it without the Epic Launcher. I was able to get the game working by simply going into Wintricks for the game, selecting Install a Windows DLL or component, and installing the d3dx9 package. I believe that is all you’ll need to get the game running, but before I got the game running, I was also getting some errors related to MSVCRT, so I also installed msvcrit in Winetricks, but that might not be needed. Other than that, my configuration is completley stock. Hope this helps you guys out!
EDIT:
I can confirm that all that is needed for the game to run is d3dx9, as I launched the game through legendary using my system default wineprefix, which was completley stock, and the game crashed at the tutorial again, added the d3dx9 package, and the game ran without issue.
Amazing. Followed your advise and created a brand new prefix, copied the game from the Epic Games’ prefix, installed d3dx9 … and I’m already running in the mud!! Thanks.
Not sure whatś going on here. Maybe the Epic Games installer script pulls off conflicting libraries.
In Lutris, select the game icon, then click on the up arrow next to the Wine icon
Run Winetricks
Take the option “Select the default wineprefix”, click ok
Click the option “Install a Windows DLL or Component”, click ok
Scroll down and put a check in the box that says d3dx9, click ok and wait for a minute or 2
Cancel to exit Winetricks
Run Epic again, launch Mudrunner
If you have Epic store already installed, you can clone the directory (cp -pr epic-games-store mudrunner-epic or whatever) add it to Lutris as a “new” game (click the +), copy all the game options, but change the name and all the paths over to the new directory.
Finally, run winetricks on it, select default, install DLL etc, and select install d3dx9.
Will not affect your other Epic store install, unless you mess up the paths )
