Symptoms

So, I'm using "force use proton for unsupported titles" and set it to experimental. Witcher 3 is supported, but still it's defaults to Experimental. So game is not starting with this proton version, game launcher also doesn't work.
Using start params: gamemoderun mangohud %command% --launcher-skip
Current Proton Experimental version 8.0.2c
Also tried 7.0.6 - same symptoms.

And 8.0.2 is working fine, with no performance problems or any bugs.

Hello @Bodyash, 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/607#issuecomment-1544941682.
