It still doesn't work.
Darn.
At this point I'd be looking at logs. Two ways to go about this.
The first is to launch steam from a terminal (close it, then just enter
steam
in a terminal) and then try to launch the game. Steam will spew out lines about what is going on into the terminal.The other way is to enable proton logs, which can be done by adding
PROTON_LOG=1 %command%
in the launch options for the game. Then when you attempt to run the game, a logfile should appear in you home folder.I'm also assuming you've tried multiple proton versions? If you haven't, do that.
It seems like game breaks here.
Archwiki on Vulkan. This information should allow you to verify that Vulkan is correctly set up and working.
If that isn't the problem, move onto proton logs, as they will be more detailed.
I also got this error for Vulkan while launching the Steam.
