Compatibility Report

Name of the game with compatibility issues: Arknights: Endfield
Steam AppID of the game: Non steam game

System Information

GPU: RX 9070 16 GB
Video driver version: Mesa 25.2.3-1ubuntu1
Kernel version: 6.17.0-12-generic
Link to full system information report as Gist: https://gist.github.com/Szabolcs2008/39e1e57d0a6859b9e81e0c359e62ed2c
Proton version: dwproton 10.0-16

I confirm:

that I haven't found an existing compatibility report for this game.
that I have checked whether there are updates for my system available.

Symptoms

Endfield crashes if I'm AFK for long enough. Sometimes also happens after switching windows. I have already tried forcing DX11 in the launcher but that just made the frequency of the crashes worse.
Weird thing is that sometimes i can play for hours, go AFK for a bit and nothing happens, and then other times it crashes after just a few minutes, or a single window change. Also the crashes produce a TON of logs in just a few seconds (talking about 20k+ lines per second in proton logs).
I attached the logs from Endfield, as I can't upload my 3.4GiB proton log file, and my pc does not like me trying to open it

Reproduction

Install Endfield
Go into game
Play for some time, 10-15 minutes maybe
Go afk or switch windows for a while
Endfield freezes

The issue seems to be related to a game update/patch, many users seemed to be reporting it on the official Discord when using Windows too. On our end though, many solved by just using ntsync, which is enabled by default in dwproton if the kernel module is loaded.

To use ntsync you need:

Kernel >= 6.14
Enabling the ntsync module with sudo modprobe ntsync or with echo ntsync | sudo tee /etc/modules-load.d/ntsync.conf and rebooting to enable it permanently.

You can then verify if the game is running with it while opened with lsof /dev/ntsync:

Enabling ntsync seems to have fixed it for me, haven't crashed yet at least
