Symptoms
Everytime the first world wonder has been researched the game's main view becomes all black and the world wonder's video is shown in a little window in the middle of the screen. Once the video is over, the game's main screen does not reappear. It stays all black.
I then saved the game. Then I restarted and tried loading the save game, but the game ist stuck in the loading screen eternally.
Reproduction
100% reproducible. I start a new game, research a world wonder, and all goes black again.
Or I try loading a game saved after the world wonder - everything is black.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue with Civilization IV AppID 3900 using the listed Proton versions, then inspect steam-3900.log alongside the reported system information. Verify whether completing a world wonder causes the main view to remain black and whether saves made afterward load successfully; done means both views and saved games recover normally.
