[ x] that I haven't found an existing compatibility report for this game.
[ x] that I have checked whether there are updates for my system available.
Not sure what is asked for here. The problem has remained even when I downgraded the xubuntu from 20 to 18. So much I can say.
Symptoms
For about the last 2 years, I have been unable to make proton install directx11 when initialising the game after install. Until 2 years ago, I was able to make proton install directx11 by downloading the game, changing to a higer proton version, run the game (for which the proton version was too high, but it managed to discover that it should install directx11), change to lower proton version e.g. 3:7-8. run the game again, and there it would install the needed directx11.
When there is no directx11, the game will simply show a white screen.
Hope this is information enough for now.
Defense grid is an older game by now, but would be nice to see it work again
