Did you check on protondb if others have had the same problem?

Maybe try a different proton/wine version in Lutris?

no one has similar problems. Which different wine version should I try?

A newer one than the one you're using?

I'm using the latest version (lutris-fshack-7.2-x86_64)

Try having it use your system wine ( or a standard wine)? I've had some weird issues in the past with "custom" wine builds doing weird things.

I tried using system wine. It didn't work.

Well, then, maybe don’t use Arch?

Are there any other possible solutions?

Could it be a filesystem/permission problem?

I gave the wine prefix full read and write permissions. It still didn't work.

Hello to you.
Are you sure that the version of the game is a legal version and not a cracker ?

It's a legal version.

In this case, I really don't know what could be the cause of your problem.
