• that I have checked whether there are updates for my system available.

Proton Log (had to compress, took a bit to get it to crash but the incorrect shaders on close NPCs was consistently appearing the entire time):
steam-990080.log.zip

Symptoms

• Very often, characters will load in their shaders for clothes, etc., and when getting closer to the player will have them unload and become completely black. This typically persists forever unless a scene reloads, but there is another issue with loading scenes after seeing this occur...
• Loading scenes (especially so after seeing the black shaders) seems to oftentimes lead to a complete crash of the game. This means loading for a quest, fast travel, or going to the main menu to try and reload a save.

Reproduction

Simply playing the game on a RX 7900 XTX with Proton using the latest stable driver release seems to result in this issue pretty regularly.

Begin with the attached steam-990080.log.zip and the listed RX 7900 XTX, Mesa, LLVM, kernel, and Proton versions. Reproduce the black character shaders and loading crashes using Steam AppID 990080; done would require a confirmed compatibility fix or a clearly narrowed diagnosis.
