Symptoms
Hi,
I am having a problem with fallout shelter on proton. I am using xubuntu.
I have tried looking through the steam community and internet sites but I have not been able to solve my problem. I probably just don't have enough knowledge. I have seen examples of the same problem but the fixes that were used did not help me.
Fallout shelter worked for a long time, but then it started to fail on load and I get this message "Failed to initialize graphics.
Make sure you have DirectX 11 installed, have up to date
drivers for your graphics card and have not disabled
3D acceleration in display settings.
InitializeEngineGraphics failed
It started right after I purchased and tried to play Fall out 3 (which also didn't work but I figured it wasn't supported) but fallout shelter is white listed so I was hoping that it would work. I looked at report #813 but didn't really understand. Thank you so much.

Research direction
Start with the compatibility report for Fallout Shelter (Steam AppID 588430), the linked system information gist, and report #813. Reproduce the failure using Proton 3.7-8 on the listed Intel HD Graphics 520 and Mesa/OpenGL environment; the blank Proton log will need investigation. Done means identifying the graphics initialization failure and confirming whether the game launches.
