Compatibility Report

Alan Wake (appid 108710) launches correctly in all proton 3.7 releases. When being run in 3.16-3, however, it clears the screen for a couple seconds then crashes.

[X] that I HAVE found an existing compatibility report for this game. It should run.
[X] that I have checked whether there are updates for my system available.

Click "Play". If it is the first time, it spends some time installing requisites. Then it clears the screen and enters fullscreen mode. Then it crashes. On versions of proton prior to 3.16, it launches correctly.
Note: Alan Wake's American Nightmare (a sequel) works with the same setup, either in proton 3.7 or proton 3.16.

Install Alan Wake and click play.

Game runs with launch options "PROTON_NO_ESYNC=1 PROTON_NO_D3D11=1 %command%". But it should run without them since it works that way on 3.7.

Hello @Patola, we're using one issue report per unofficially supported game title, so I've gone ahead and transferred this issue report to https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/156#issuecomment-433391535.
