Im running XFCE and every time I try to open up a steam game it just crashes with no error message, no new window opening, nothing, unless it’s a linux native game, in which case it works just fine. This problem is only happening on games using Proton. I’m pretty sure that I need to generate a crash log so that you guys can have some actual usable information, but I honestly don’t know how, I’m super new to Linux.
Hello @ondlad and welcome 
Just point you in a direction: Proton uses Vulkan and DXVK/VKD3D as translation layer for directx9/10/11/12 … therefore keep sure that your GPU is vulkan capable and vulkan library is installed.
I’ve got the crash logs, here they are.

Hello @ondlad,
Proton DB says “Purrgatory” should run.
The ld.so-Error is normal and could be ignored.
The main fault here I think its a driver problem so that we have to know more about your machine. Please go through these link [HowTo] Provide System Information and provide 'inxi output".

Ok, seems to be your machine is a Laptop with two GPUs and it could be the games uses the false GPU/driver.
My experiences of this topic are very small but perhals another one knows more.
Please post the output of these 2 commands:
mhwd -li
mhwd -l
With these we (and you) see which drivers are installed on your system and which are available for your system.
For systems with two GPUs (often Laptops) are hybrid drivers available.

Ok, there are drivers installed. I dont know if ‘video-linux’ is needed on your system. Because I have no experience with these (2 gpu) systems.
Megavolt prove me wrong/text only for non steam games
Dieser Text wird ausgeblendet
First I want to ask if you have checked @megavolt’s comment that ‘dxvk’ is installed?
pamac search -i dxvk
Should bring any output! If not you have to install it with these command:
pamac install dxvk-bin
If you need to install it try after install to run the game.
If it is still installed please open ‘steam’ and go to the properties of your game. Now add the following line to the ‘Launch Options’ in the ‘General’-Tab and try to start the game.
prime-run %command%
If it didn’t start at this point I guess the ‘video-linux’ driver could be the problem.

DXVK is included in PROTON 
That’s what I mean:
pamac list --installed | grep "vulkan"
pamac search "vulkan" --no-aur
This absolutely needed since it contains the amdgpu driver.
Some Windows Games have indeed problems here… prime-run will call the nvidia gpu then for acceleration
What makes me think is why you @ondlad have set this?
About this command line,
MESA_GLSL_VERSION_OVERRIDE
It was just from some random “solution” i found online, but it did nothing for me and I suppose I forgot to take it out of pre-launch settings.
Well for me it just works:
I choose proton-experimental
But however… it runs in OpenGL, and prime-run seems not to work… hm have to investigate it.
Trying to use pamac to install dxvk-bin is giving me this:
Error: target not found: dxvk-bin
As for:
prime-run %command%
Same thing appears to be happening, crash logs also appear to be the same.
Weird, I’ll try out experimental
Edit: Experimental didn’t work, was worth a shot I suppose
Flatpak version of steam perhaps? The flatpak sandbox can produce such issues on hybrid gpus.
So try the native version.
At least what I can say: It is a pure OpenGL Game for Windows, so no DirectX or Vulkan needed.
I’m on the native version, using Purrgatory as an example game because it’s free and is really small, but the same thing is happening with DirectX games (SCP: Pandemic) and Vulkan games (Devil May Cry 5)
Then lets go a bit lower level. Test this:
glxinfo | grep "OpenGL renderer"
prime-run glxinfo | grep "OpenGL renderer"
glxgears
prime-run glxgears
vulkan-info | egrep "^GPU id"
vkcube
prime-run vkcube
The OpenGL test seems to work just fine, but the output for vkcube looks like this:
bash: vulkan-info: command not found
bash: vkcube: command not found
/usr/bin/prime-run: line 2: vkcube: command not found
Edit: As a side note, I installed Flatpak Steam to see if anything would be different, but it isn’t.
Did you try steam-runtime? I feel the steam-native is always troublesome.
Oh, that means it is not installed…
pamac install vulkan-tools
