Expedition 33 rendering issue after Mesa 26.2.1 package update

Ryzen 5 5500X and AMD RX 6900XT

All character models are invisible and only hair and beards show up on the characters, was working on previous version perfectly.
Followed method for a similar issue on Bazzite for a fix but doesn't seem to work on Arch, anyone else have an idea on what to do?

Similar Issue on Bazzite:

Purposed Solution on Reddit was RADV_DEBUG=zerovram %command% which isn't working on Arch
Also deleted, shadercache and compdata directories and started fresh.

Re: Expedition 33 rendering issue after Mesa 26.2.1 package update

There are other options mentioned in that thread that may help :
adding -dx11
adding steamdeck=0
Lowering graphics settings

Have you tried those ?


Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?
Try clean chroot manager by graysky

if  none of the Lone_Wolf solutions solves your issue, you can downgrade the package of mesa  with pacman if you are really 100% sure is not a steam proton version issue. And wait until a fix comes in a new release.

Is not the only game that had this kind of issues, but maybe it's one of the most obvious and unplayable. Some other games have issue in rendering specific animations well sometimes, but are the minority of the  catalog to be honest.


str( @soyg ) == str( @potplant ) btw!

Also now with avatar logo included!

I tried all the additional flags and lowering settings already.  Used the downgrade tool to downgrade the packages and everything works fine again, thank you for the suggestion had no idea you could roll back packages like that on Arch.

Re: Expedition 33 rendering issue after Mesa 26.2.1 package update

downgrade the packages

Which one specifically?
=> /var/log/pacman.log

Did you have to reboot after the downgrade (Ie. is this coming from the kernel or mesa/vulkan)

I ran downgrade mesa lib32-mesa vulkan-radeon lib32-vulkan-radeon and selected the previous versions (26.1.8). Using latest Linux kernel still, the issue was strictly in mesa.
