WWE 2K15 PC 0.3.4 beta

Steam Deck and Linux (Proton) groundwork, controller navigation in the launcher. No game data is included. The launcher offers this update by itself (ABOUT page): your game folder, mods, settings and saves are kept. Nothing changes for normal Windows PCs apart from the small items below.

New

  • Steam Deck / Linux (Proton): the launcher detects a Steam Deck and, on a first run only, picks the native renderer, 720p internal resolution, fullscreen and vsync. Your own settings are never changed. Under Wine the launcher window is placed and sized correctly, fonts have fallbacks, and the update check no longer fails on proxy settings. If the shader compiler (dxcompiler.dll) cannot be used, the native renderer now stops with a clear message and the launcher switches to the normal renderer by itself (before, the window stayed black). Guide: docs/LINUX_STEAM_DECK.md. We cannot test on a real Deck: reports are very welcome.
  • Controller navigation in the launcher: the left stick moves the focus, the focused tile has a gold outline, A / Enter / Space activate it, and PLAY is selected by default. On the Steam Deck use a Gamepad Steam Input layout for the shortcut, not the Desktop one.
  • Custom logo import (experimental): launcher MODS tab > "LOGO PERSONNALISÉ" > import a PNG or JPG (transparency is supported). Then in the game: CREATIONS > LOGO > an empty slot > pick the size > your picture appears in the editor > ACCEPT (the game writes its own save only when you accept). The picture is stretched to a square (128 or 256 px). "Remove the picture" deletes the copy; your original file is never moved. Please report anything odd with your logo save.
  • Loading diagnostics: the [load] lines of the log now show how much the game reads from disk and the CPU time used, so a slow loading can be traced to a hard disk or a slow CPU in bug reports.

Reminder

  • 0.3.3 (previous version): fixes a crash just before a match starts on PCs with few CPU cores (#24) and slow-motion entrances on slower PCs (the game goes back to its original 30 fps for scenes it cannot run at 60 fps).
  • The native renderer is the default since 0.3.0: untick GRAPHICS > "Rendu natif" to return to the normal renderer.
  • You need Title Update 4 (tu00000004_00000000). With no controller, the launcher turns the keyboard on (Space = A, Enter = Start).

Known issues

  • Multi-man matches (6-man, fatal four) can stutter on slow CPUs (#27, #28); we measured that skipping shadows or crowd draws does not help a slow CPU. A log from such a match helps (logs\wwe2k15_*.log).
  • Loading screens take about 10-13 s for the biggest matches (the game itself waits; no safe fix found).
  • Showcase: a crash after a cutscene in a casket match was reported (#24); logs welcome. Create a Moveset can get stuck on a loading screen for some players (#25).
  • Online features (Xbox Live, Xbox Store) do not work. No native Linux build: use Proton.

Bugs: please open an issue with your GPU, CPU, the scene and logs\wwe2k15_*.log (and crash_*.txt).
Never share the game files, the Title Update or DLC. Not affiliated with WWE, 2K or Yuke's.


En français

  • Steam Deck / Linux (Proton) : le launcher détecte un Steam Deck et choisit au premier lancement le rendu natif, le 720p, le plein écran et la vsync (tes réglages ne sont jamais modifiés). Si dxcompiler.dll est inutilisable, le rendu natif s'arrête avec un message et le launcher passe seul au rendu normal. Guide : docs/LINUX_STEAM_DECK.md.
  • Manette dans le launcher : stick gauche pour déplacer le focus, contour doré sur la tuile, A / Entrée pour valider, JOUER sélectionné par défaut.
  • Import de logo personnalisé (expérimental) : onglet MODS du launcher > « LOGO PERSONNALISÉ » > importer un PNG ou JPG ; puis dans le jeu : CREATIONS > LOGO > emplacement vide > taille > ton image apparaît > ACCEPTER.
  • Diagnostic de chargement : le log indique les lectures disque et le temps CPU.
