Here's a game crash from when I finally got all the way into the game while playing:
https://gist.github.com/6e734b352fa5114bc1d72d21ced3a596 proton-6.3-2 with launch options

Symptoms

The game will freeze and crash during launch, while the splash screens are displayed, when you click on the "press any key" prompt to get to the main menu or at the main menu, while not pushing any buttons and obviously during actual gameplay.

Reproduction

  • Launch your game with Proton 5.0 (most stable) or latest.
  • If you survive the splash screens, then left-click on "press any key" to play.
  • Nothing runs with 5.13 on my system.

The only way that I've even been able to pass the splash screens and come to the main menu and start playing (before it crashes again) is with these launch options: env PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=60 taskset -c 0 %command% I also tried to disable esync among a few other tricks without any improvement.

Also it doesn't matter if I run the game in a window or fullscreen, but Proton 5.0 seems to be the most stable, when I use the above mentioned launch options, but it will continuously crash during gameplay.
