which game is that? have you tried proton GE? if it's anticheat stuff, your best choice is to dual boot unfortunately. if it isn't resource intensive, i guess you could try GPU passthrough in a VM and see if it works. you need two GPUs for that tho...

It's DCS and it seems to be issues with shaders specifically, I have not tried GE, I will give it a try

have a look at this, there's a fix for the shader issue. https://wiki.hoggitworld.com/view/DCS_on_linux

tried that too, I get an invalid magic number error for protontricks, tried the fixes in here github.com/Matoking/protontricks/issues/304

I tried to install d3dcompiler_47 on another game in another drive and got the same error, I can't seem to add dlls through protontricks
