During the first few races some stutters can happen (shader compiling?), otherwise a flawless experience.
Config Utility doesn't work. Game defaults to Desktop resolution.
Only "Issue" I can report is being unable to change the Player Name, otherwise it runs and plays perfectly.
Runs great out of the box, the issues mentioned are most likely not Proton related.
Transparency on smoke effects sometimes renders incorrectly as a transparent square instead of the intended smoke. This seems to be somewhat depended on how far the smoke is away and might be a general issue of Deathkarz being a old game and not necessarily a Proton issue
It has a couple of slowdowns in some places (maxed out render distance), however I doubt that it the fault of Proton as I remember about the same slowdowns no matter what Hardware I ran it on back in the day. I suspect these are a issue of the games Engine.
Runs Perfect, but you still need to add the certificate manually. Performance is great as well.
Works great out of the Box, even the EAX Sound Mode works flawless, however Lightning Setting has to be on High or Lower, the Very High Setting has the game stuck on an enless loading loop on the Splash Screen.
Launch Option "RADV_PERFTEST=aco %command%" is needed for the game to render
Some shadows are rendered incorrectly, doesn't affect gameplay
Play portion of the Simulation is usable with a Controller, Editor not usable because of the Freezing Issue.
Game Locks Up when the Mouse is used outside of the Main Menu. Using Controller doesn't lock the game up. With no Controller connected the Game doesn't always lock up immediately.
For me it's still the same behaviour as always: Game launches with a black screen and crash report window. Closing the crash report closes the game. Tried leaving it idle hoping it needs time to load, but even afteer 10 Minutes nothing seems to happen. Clicking anywhere crashes the game.
Works now. Performance, Sound and Visuals are flawless, but as many others stated most number values display as "jd%", Sandbox mode with unlimited money is playable like this.
Follow these Instructions to get the .dll file to get the Numbers working: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/1538#issuecomment-529896867
Copy the ucrtbase.dll File you got from the above instructions to your "steamapps/compdata/493340/pfx/drive_c/windows/system32" folder. Make a backup of the Original File just in case!
Without the mentioned Fix any Dynamic Numbers are not Displayed.
Game crashes at Startup with a Wine C++ Runtime Error, leaves Zombie Process

Menus and Loading screens are displayed just fine, everything else is just a black void.
Launch Option "RADV_PERFTEST=aco %command%" is needed for the game to render
Sometimes sections of the ground appear to have a shadow over them despite nothing being there that causes them, doesn't affect gameplay
Works out of the box, great performance, G27 Wheel works as expected
Doesn't like Alt+Tab, screen goes black when returning to game
Force Feedback works for me using the DKMS version of the new-lg4ff driver, no ffbtools needed for me. Only Shift LED's not working. As other have noted the first few minutes can be very stuttery due to possible shader compiling.
Game launches, Audio works fine, only black Screen
Game uses the nGlide 3DFX Wrapper, 3DFX Logo Shows, after that only black screen. Trying to launch the game with the D3D.exe fails with an Error, same when using the Requiem.exe, reconfiguring the nGlide Settings didn't help.
Game crashes at Startup when Logitech G27 Wheel is plugged in, game doesn't detect the Wheel when it is plugged in after the game launches. Dualshock 4 Gamepad works as expected.
Game generally runs fine, if rendering artifacts are a dealbreaker for you, then this could be considered unplayable, otherwise it's fine
Some scenes have show minor to heavy artifacts, sometimes pretty much all around the player, sometimes somewhere in the background during cut scenes. Most of the game renders without issues though.
