Hello @hasezoey, you're setting SDL_VIDEODRIVER=wayland globally somewhere (https://gist.github.com/hasezoey/04987fc45b69e629829295250732c6d9#file-steaminfo-txt-L154) and that's interfering with SDL run inside Proton in a similar way as https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/5587#issuecomment-1221255936.

You could try setting the game's launch options to SDL_VIDEODRIVER= %command% or maybe SDL_VIDEODRIVER=windows %command% to override your session-wide setting. (https://wiki.libsdl.org/SDL2/FAQUsingSDL)

Hello @hasezoey, you're setting SDL_VIDEODRIVER=wayland globally somewhere (https://gist.github.com/hasezoey/04987fc45b69e629829295250732c6d9#file-steaminfo-txt-L154)

true, kind of forgot about that, though i was confused because the normal fallback i would do =x11 also did not work. forgot that that sdl instance was for windows not linux and so did not have those protocols, and also didnt know =windows would be the option, thanks for mentioning that.

the workaround (for my case) which i ended up using was using SDL_VIDEODRIVER=x11 on the native linux version of the game, which worked great - for that one i was just really confused because the error did not mention anything about SDL (for context i mean the error of Failed to initialized OpenGL extensions (GLEW), error: Unknown error)
