I've been playing Black Ops 3 through Proton just fine until a few days ago some of the textures mainly transparent ones like glass turned bright white, It happened after I switch from running the game on GE-Proton 8-9 to 8-25.

I've tried everything I could think of, switching back to 8-9 and regular Proton Experimental, manually clearing the vulkan cache and even reinstalling the whole game after making sure no files were left over.

Any ideas how to fix this? I am using an Nvidia GPU, which is normally the cause of my problems...

Hey everyone. I've been playing on Linux using proton for a while and stumbled across this scenario: you click "play" and the game won't start, it doesn't even bring up the "compiling vulkan shaders" card sometimes. This post is about a fix I've been using and wanted to share.

Use a process analyser (I use htop) to search for a process with the word "DIRECTX" or "DXSETUP". This process should run right after you install the game and click to play for the first time, as a post-install script. In my experience, this process usually hangs and stops the game starting sequence. Since I know my Proton setup already have DirectX updated, I kill this process (using signal 9 - SIGKILL) and the game starts booting normally.

I'm currently using GE-Proton8-14 and Pop!_OS 22.04
