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.
For some reason I've been having issues too, but I started adding this to my launch options in the game properties in Steam and it seems to work for several games. Dunno if this is the same issue as you though, but maybe worth a shot:
Also use Wayland.
Thanks for the input! I tried it but no luck, the black blocks are still there and it still renders on 16:9. Thanks though!!
Ah, bummer... Can't you just log in using X11 instead of Wayland for the session when you want to play? Assuming it's a Wayland issue...
