I can also confirm the same behavior on my oled deck with proton Experimental too.

Game is deck verified using proton 9.0-2 despite this issue though for some reason

@ranplayer @waspennator I can reproduce this, and I can see this broke sometime between 8.0-5 and 9.0-1. We are looking into it.

The game was Verified with whatever Proton Stable was at the time, which it appears to be Proton 7.0-4b. Since it was verified with a stable build, it stays on whatever is currently the Proton Stable, which is now Proton 9.0-2. Ideally we don't have regressions hit in Stable and users can get the benefits of a newer version but these regressions do slip through. These reports are helpful for if they work on an older version, as we can set them then to a Proton version that does work in the meantime that is available, like 8.0-5.

Thank you both for the report :)

@ranplayer
I just tried it out recently on my oled deck with proton Experimental again and the game actually seems to be working without those popups now. If it works for you, maybe it would be best to set the game to use Experimental proton or wait until 9.0-4 hits stable.

If i try it with 9.0-3, the game starts crashing again with the same popup
