[ yes] that I haven't found an existing compatibility report for this game.
[ yes] that I have checked whether there are updates for my system available.
On Steam Deck no report is generated, the game launches as usual.
Symptoms
Steam deck running GE-Proton 8-13 will not recognize Japanese text input (full width hiragana or katakana) in one specific game, Winning Post 10 2023. I've tried all available Proton versions on the steam deck as well before GE. I've posted and discussed my issue on Stack Exchange, Reddit, Twitter, discord, and also tried many solutions from GitHub. The fix that worked for previous games was inputting the following code (on Github courtesy of user Xargonwan) into Konsole while the Steam deck is in desktop mode:
#!/bin/bash
sudo steamos-readonly disable
sudo pacman-key --init
sudo pacman-key --populate archlinux
sudo pacman -S glibc
sudo sed -i "s%#ja_JP.UTF-8 UTF-8%ja_JP.UTF-8 UTF-8%" /etc/locale.gen
sudo locale-gen
sudo steamos-readonly enable
Then, I input LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8 %command% in the game's startup options on Steam to enable the locale, however, this solution does not work for this game. It worked for the 2022 version of the same game and for my other Japanese language games.
Open Steam gaming mode (also does not work on desktop mode)
Select "New Game"
Name your character
No text populated and an error message is given stating (translated) "Please use full-width Japanese characters. Half-width characters are not supported"
