When driving to Los Santos Customs to tune a vehicle in GTA V Enhanced, the image becomes persistently blurred. It appears that the engine is attempting to apply a “realify” post-processing effect but never actually sharpens the scene.

Steps to Reproduce

Launch GTA V Enhanced under Steam Play on Linux.

Select Proton Experimental, Proton 10-beta or Proton-GE 10.4 as the compatibility tool.

Load any saved game and drive to Los Santos Customs.

Enter the workshop to tune the vehicle.

Observe that the image remains blurred instead of sharpening.

Expected Behavior
The post-processing “realify” effect should remove blur and render a crisp, realistic image inside Los Santos Customs, as seen on Windows 11.

Actual Behavior
The image remains blurred at all times in the tuning workshop, regardless of Proton version.
