Does your wine support Wayland natively maybe? Proton doesn't yet, and I found some games have issues with that.
I usually use ganescope for such games. Maybe try that
I think you are correct assuming it's an issue with proton not supporting wayland as if i try to use lutris proton still doesn't work but wine does and so does with gamescope.
I'm trying to use gamescope now as you and the other comment have mentioned but I'm having the issue with this command, if you could help me:
gamescope -w 3440 -h 1440 -W 3440 -H 1440 %command%
It creates a window of the appropriate size but the game is still in 16:9 (Without the black blocks issue, which is already a win, but i'd prefer it to be ultrawide too).
Thanks for the help!!
EDIT: Just tried it with Lutris but it seems to also not work even with their setup on proton. So it might be a them thing. For now I'll just use lutris to play on wine directly.
The -W and -H are the resolution you want to display at, so you want those to be your monitor's native resolution. They default to 1280 x 720 if you don't specify.
The -w and -h specify what resolution to render at, and are only really useful if using DLSS or FSR for scaling. Skip them if you're not using that.
Yes i read that in the documentation but for some unkown reason if i omit either the lowercase or the uppercase the game won't even start! Only the gamescope instance.
