PES 2019 [LITE] (770240/[950100])

Whitelist Request

• Name of the game to be whitelisted: PES 2019 and PES 2019 LITE (but I think in general, any PES version would be fine)
• Steam AppID of the game: 770240/[950100]

System Information

You can see here and in ProtonDB website how the people is running the game and their common issues.

I confirm:

• that pressing the Play button in the Steam client is sufficient.
• that runtime config options are necessary to run the game.
• that no workarounds other than PROTON_* env variables are necessary.

Issues

• I haven't experienced any issues.
• There are no issues left open for this game.
• Although I consider the gaming experience equal to Windows there are remaining issues:

You cannot play the PVP mode, just vsCOM; but you need to disable the network interface, open the game, then enable the network interface and connect directly to myClub mode. Otherwise the game will freeze and crash.

Conclusions

• I think this one is a good bet to get it working on SteamPlay / Proton, It would be the unique one football simulator (for GNU/Linux). I'm playing myClub mode vsCOM and I'm totally hooked. The Steam Controller does work pretty fine.
• The performance also should be improved.

Start by reviewing Proton issue #268 and the ProtonDB reports for AppIDs 770240 and 950100, then reproduce the launch and network behavior described here. Done would require a defined path to whitelist support that avoids the PVP freeze or crash and addresses the reported performance concern.
