I cant seem to run Unity games on Arch running KDE Plasma Wayland.
I open steam and scroll to the game in question, ULTRAKILL, or any other Unity games
I click “Play”, and a pop up appears showing an icon of the game and a loading bar.
Once the loading bar finishes, nothing happens.
I can run every other game in my library except unity-based things. Does anyone have any advice for this?

Which proton build are you using?
It has a solid rating on protondb https://www.protondb.com/app/1229490?device=pc
Are you using native steam or flatpak?

Are you using native steam or flatpak?
Native. Proton 10.0-4

Im assuming the verbose if you run steam from terminal doesnt say much?
Do you have an intel CPU? Is this a laptop? What nvidia driver are you using?

Yeah, it’s a laptop. I’ll paste a bunch of info below.

The older selection on archinstall
faint falcon
You should have like 4 or 5 nvidia 580xx packages from the AUR.
The older section?
frank frigate
The one that isn't tailored for newer GPUs.
I honestly don't remember the full name :/
faint falcon
To switch to the AUR drivers I did something like this when the migration happened, but without knowing what drivers you use its hard to tell, Im suspecting youre on nouveau. I would urge you to jump on the nvidia drivers instead. You are also perhaps missing some vulkan deps which can only help to have. Lastly, if you use dkms drivers make sure you have linux-headers installed.
sudo pacman -R lib32-nvidia-utils lib32-opencl-nvidia nvidia-dkms nvidia-settings nvidia-utils opencl-nvidia
sudo pacman -Syu
yay -S nvidia-580xx-utils nvidia-580xx-dkms opencl-nvidia-580xx lib32-opencl-nvidia-580xx lib32-nvidia-580xx-utils nvidia-580xx-settings
when it asks for replacing (or any other conflicting pkgs) libxnvctrl-590 with libxnvctrl-580 enter Y
When its all done reboot
But yeah before doing all this you will need to ID which drivers you use and switch to the appropriate propretary-opensourced ones from nvidia.
faint falcon
You'll need to remove nouveau first though.
frank frigate
Do I need to create a blacklist for it?
faint falcon
I didnt have to on any of my arch installation but perhaps since you installed nouveau with archinstall it could be safer.
frank frigate
Alright, I'll just blacklist it in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
Just rebooted and it works!
Thank you so much!
faint falcon
Just rebooted and it works!
The game works ?
Awesome
