Symptoms

The game does not launch (shows Fallout 3 launcher for a moment and quickly disappears) with Proton 5.13 but does launch with Proton 4.11 (see the attached logs). The game does not start with Proton 5.0 either.

I bypassed d3d9.dll, as described here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YYtX_NCDMe0

There is a similar issue, however, it's (1) for Fallout 3 GOTY and (2) outdated Proton version.

Hello @dizcza, 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/2069#issuecomment-728337154.
