  1. Start the game once for proton to set up the WINEPREFIX
  2. Open up a terminal and run command: protontricks 8080 --gui (considering that protontricks is installed)
  3. Click "OK" on the warning about a 64-bit WINEPREFIX
  4. Check "Enable silent install" and press "OK"
  5. Stay on "Select the default wineprefix" and press "OK"
  6. Check "Install a Windows DLL or component" and press "OK"
  7. Check "gfw", "d3dx9_31", "d3dx9_34", press "OK" and wait for the operation to finish
  8. Press "OK", "Cancel" to exit from protontricks and close the terminal
  9. Set the following lauch command: PROTON_NO_ESYNC=1 PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 PROTON_FORCE_LARGE_ADDRESS_AWARE=1 %command%
  10. Play the game!

Just fyi:
I recently added Kane & Lynch: Dead Men (8080) support to my steamtinkerlaunch which takes care that

  • GFWL directories are removed,
  • WLIDSvcM.exe is killed
  • xliveless is installed into the gamedir (warns if not, and optionally installs it if files are provided - no automatic download)
  • d3dx9_31 and d3dx9_34 are installed
  • PROTON_NO_ESYNC and PROTON_NO_FSYNC are set to 1

TL;DR: the game works ootb with stl (when xliveless files are found)
