I recently bought PCBS2 and running it via Heroic with wine-ge. When I was completing story mode, I noticed that instead of numbers and any text in in-game version of 3DMark I’ve been getting blank spaces. Same problem with custom cables shop.
No matter which language I set Russian or English, it still displays blank text instead of any letters (Screenshots below) (I marked with red color places where text should’ve been displayed)
After I encountered this problem in PCBS2, I decided to check other games and I discovered that Tool Gun and Camera in Garry’s Mod (Native Build) also named with just blank text in my inventory (this problem doesn’t exist in Proton version of GMOD. Hope someone could help!
P.S I use clear Arch installation (KDE, X11, Radeon Graphics)
Regarding this text issue I think I may know what is causing it but not 100% as I have seen information relating to this but I haven’t had it to try the potential fixes.
In winetricks or protontricks (Depending on how you are playing the game), I use Heroic too so it would be Winetricks in that case.
There is a font package called corefonts that can be downloaded, proton downloads this as default but other wine prefixes don’t. These packages can have windows fonts for multiple languages and font types. There is also another package called allfonts but I would try corefonts first and see if that works.
