The game runs perfectly with the exception of the last boss fight
I'm not sure if this is a proton issue or not but during the last bossfight the framerate dropped drastically. It was still playable though.
Game seems to be working properly. Noticed some minor slowdowns now and then, also the jetpack trail disappeared after a while.
There are some minor issues but the game is playable
When there's a lot of units with particles effect on screen the game slows down a bit, still being playable but barely. Sometimes the game would freeze for less than a second when loading a new new model/texture/sound effect.
I played with the legacy 1.54 version w/ wide screen patch as per suggestions on the steam forums. This was suggested to fix an infinite spawn issue on some levels. This worked as I didn't encounter this issue while playing those levels. Problem is that on some other levels (especially the snowy ones) I've run into that same problem, fortunately I was able to overcome it by lowering the difficulty level. I don't know if this issue was caused by running the game through proton but since I couldn't find those specific spawn points reported anywhere I must conclude that it probably is. For now I've only completed the original campaign so I can't report on similar issues in the two expansions.
Running spellforce with the proton 5.0-9 will freeze the game when trying to open any of the UI menus. The level design of the last couple of levels was actually more rage-inducing than any of problems caused by running it through proton.
