I'm hoping the hivemind can help me gain some traction.
As you can see on proton db https://www.protondb.com/app/578330 the game is supposed to run very well.
But for me It just launches and immediately stops - with aparently no crash, just shuts down.
The relevant info for his machine:
Extended renderer info (GLX_MESA_query_renderer):
Vendor: X.Org (0x1002)
Device: AMD Radeon (TM) R9 380 Series (TONGA, DRM 3.26.0, 4.18.0-20-generic, LLVM 7.0.0) (0x6939)
Version: 18.2.8
Ubuntu 18.10
I've tried both proton v 3.16-4 & 4.2-4 with the exact same result.
Launching it from bash dosn't yield any usefull information, but I seem to recall you could add some proton options when launching games from bash that would output some more debug info - my google fu is just weak it seems as I turn up blanks.
Any tips, tricks or suggestions?

PROTON_LOG=1 %command%Hopefully this will provide some valuable information
EDIT: That's Steam launch option
PROTON_USE_WINED3D11=1 %command%as runtime option, I've yet to change back to the current of proton to see if it helps smooth out the performance as it is a little laggy atm - but atleast it plays :)
for further reference here are all the options;
