Question - do Winetricks and Proton get along? I tried to run a workaround that Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 needed (according to winehq), and it didn't seem to change anything.
If not, how do we configure the wine instances that Proton creates?

Well, I did. And I tried.
WINEPREFIX=~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/202970/pfx winetricks d3dx9 glsl-enable gdiplus
It does change something, but I get this error sitting at the bottom of the steam log:
pid 19054 != 19053, skipping destruction (fork without exec?).
I have the most up-to-date version of wine-stable currently installed separate from Proton. What might be the issue.

If you get the game to launch (even into the menu), please ping me here with how you've done it. I've been trying to get it to run for about 3 years now.

I don't know what game that is and my situation certainly is not the same, but for my case I ran WINEPREFIX=/media/data/games/proton/pfx winetricks vcrun2015 and it did work exactly as expected. Running things with that proton prefix have access to whatever was installed with winetricks.

It was not mentioned yet, so just for the record - there's a proton-specific wrapper for winetricks called protontricks - at the moment it's hosted at https://github.com/Matoking/protontricks
@kisak-valve @SteveHeist I think there's no actual problem here? Can this issue be closed?
