Proton versions 4.11-13, 5.0-10, and 5.13-6 appear to have the same issues as 6.3-8 and above.
The game does not start in Proton 4.2-9 when launched using DirectX 9 but no white screen is displayed.
Hello @James76931, wine: Call from 7B011197 to unimplemented function hid.dll.HidD_GetPhysicalDescriptor, aborting looks like the line of interest from your log.
Looks like it's not implemented in wine.

Probably need a upstream wine issue for that one.
Hi, I submitted a patch for this issue to Wine: https://source.winehq.org/patches/data/231171
Hopefully it will fix your issue. :)
Also, @kisak-valve is there a way to submit this patch to Proton?
@mohamadaljaf Nice work! I see it just got accepted upstream today. IMO you already followed the best way to submit it to Proton :D If nothing else, all upstreamed patches are picked up automatically with the next wine rebase. Since we know this fixes a particular game, we can cherry-pick it now quite easily. I actually just tested the cherry-pick, and it seems to fix the crash on launch, so I will make sure it gets in the next experimental release :) You can potentially also submit a pull request for the upstreamed patch, but I'm not sure myself quite how to do that for a wine patch.
Awesome, glad it fixed the crash. Thanks, I'll look into submitting a pull request. :)
@mohamadaljaf Your patch is in the latest experimental release as of today :D It is really quite easy for us to pull patches into proton once they are upstreamed :) IMO for already upstreamed work in Wine, the pull request option is available in case a ping doesn't catch someones attention.
Thank you so much @mohamadljaf! I've spent some time testing and I can say the game runs flawlessly on the latest Proton Experimental (using either DirectX 11 or 9) which is wonderful. Really feels great to play on the Steam Deck. There are no crashes when launched, no input or sound issues, no stuttering/degraded performance, and everything is accessible. @alasky17 or @kisak-valve, assuming it's appropriate to ask without creating a new issue, would it please be possible to get a whitelist for this game (and perhaps a cheeky nudge to the Deck Verified team 😅😆)?
@James76931 Great to hear :D Since this game is now on my radar as improved behavior over 7.0-1, it actually already in the queue to get tested/retested by the team that does deck verification :)
@alasky17 Ah that's great :D Do you think it's a good idea to keep this issue open for whitelisting then? I'm just thinking if the game would be whitelisted anyway once you've confirmed how well it works with Proton through your tests on the Deck. Or is it even worth requesting it be whitelisted in the first place? This is my first time reporting an issue here so I'm not 100% sure of the next steps once a previously buggy game becomes fully working 😛

I see, I suppose there's no reason to submit a pull request anymore.
Feel free to ping me in the future if a game crashes on an unimplemented function. Often, a stub is enough to get them running.

You can just keep the issue open in general. Then people can post here in they run into another problem :)
Compatibility Report
System Information
Steam Deck 512GB
I confirm:
(Logs captured when game is launched using DirectX 11)
Proton experimental-7.0-20220310:steam-432980.log
Proton 4.2-9: steam-432980.log
Symptoms
In Proton versions 7.0-1, Experimental, and 6.3-8, INVERSUS Deluxe typically fails to start. The screen briefly flashes white and the game closes. On the odd occasion that INVERSUS Deluxe boots properly, gamepad input fails to be recognised.
Proton 4.2-9 appears to work significantly better, with every aspect of the game functioning minus audio output.
Reproduction
Download the game on a Steam Deck (512GB), run it, and if using Proton 4.2-9 turn up system volume.
