After over a year the game (Touhou 15.5) crashes while launching (I can see a window quickly appear and disappear) using all versions of proton available on steam. I have also tried GE-proton but nothing changed. other games on steam work fine. Tried reinstalling the game, deleting all data in this game's proton prefix and updating the system
#One non-steam game suddenly stops working on proton while other games work properly

As a work around you could try setting PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 %command% as a launch parameter to force it to translate Direct3D calls into OpenGL. This worked for me on my older laptop.
This game works fine for me
All Touhou games do
Just use protondb to check and proton experimental
For older ones, bottles
.aw touhou
unfortunately it didn't work
all other Touhou games also work for me (maybe besides Th6 but this game also sometimes doesn't work on windows)
the problem is that only touhou 15.5 stopped working for some reason
earlier I didn't have any problems with it for a very long time
and also when I try using wine for it, the game launches but is super slow
try using bottles or a different runner
protonupqt can help to get other runners
running the game using bottles also crashes Th15.5 immediately 😔
weird, I have th15.5 and it works fine with bottles
using the default settings
soda runner
