Just wondering the best method here. Searching doesn’t always get me the answer for every game, and I keep having this issue where I launch a game and it will load then stop without ever displaying anything (liminal core and assetto corsa are 2 examples). Running mint, all AMD. protonge, wine tricks, all of that needed stuff is installed. I run steam from terminal to try and see if I can figure out where it’s crashing, but I’m not totally sure. Is there a better error dump I can access ? I’ve tried multiple proton versions, do I need to launch it with all 50 versions to find a working one?

    You have already done most of what I would do, but here is my list:

    • Try another Proton version (in my experience Proton 6 seems stable and sufficiently different)
    • Check ProtonDB if this problem is known
    • Read the logs in the command line output
    • Try both steam-native and steam-runtime (maybe this is only an Arch thing?)
    • First back up, then delete the entire protonprefix (~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/<GAME-ID>). THIS WILL ALSO REMOVE ALL SAVEFILES OF THE GAME!
    • Use an Xorg desktop environment instead of Wayland
