Proton 8 and up not working with Nvidia? (lemm.ee)

Hello! I've tried a bunch of games but they're just not able to start on proton/wine/GE proton version 8 and up. If I switch back to proton 7 they're working fine. Has anyone else experienced this? Does anyone have a solution. Also softwares that don't require GPU work fine too with version 8.

I've been having the same issue on Pop!_OS.

What GPU you got. Maybe it's an old GPU thing?

I have a 3050, driver version 535.113.01.

Idk if you ever solved this but after switching back to Wayland I am able to launch games with Proton 8.

Didn't, unfortunately. I'm on Wayland too.
