Hello @thasreal, can you test some Proton versions between Proton 5.0 and 8.0 and note what the oldest version is darker than affected / newest that doesn't show the visual regression?

    @simifor, in that case I would encourage everyone to run `protontricks 283290 mfc42` and then use `bash -c 'exec "${@/Nosferatu.exe/start.exe}"' -- %command%` in the launch options... for science :) Actually, that reache...

    @michaelneverwins for videos to be transcoded users have to run into them first, I don't know exactly how many, but it's my understanding several users are needed for validation. It's possible you might be the first pers...

    One _more_ thing (or actually many things), regarding the `start.exe` launcher used for changing settings (e.g. game resolution) as mentioned in earlier comments: I decided to try to get it working, and it's a mess, whic...

    I deleted both `~/.steam/debian-installation/steamapps/compatdata/283290/` and `~/.steam/debian-installation/steamapps/shadercache/283290/` _[**edit:** yes, deleting the latter was silly, see edits at the end]_, put only...

    @michaelneverwins Is shader pre-caching enabled on your end? Settings > Downloads has the option. If it was already enabled check the contents of your `shadercache` folder and enter the `283290` folder, say if there's a ...

    I don't know what may have changed, aside from the fact that I'm now using an AMD Radeon RX 6600, but with at least some Proton versions for which I'd previously reported cutscenes working out-of-the-box (namely Proton 9...
