Game doesn't launch + Desktop app won't function (Mint Cinnamon 22.2)

[MaaarineDev]

Describe the Bug
When I click on launch application in Reloaded II, the game selected either doesn't launch or immediately quits.
Also, the desktop app created for each game (eg: "Reloaded-II (SMT5V)") doesn't work (doesn't do anything visibly.)

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behaviour:
-Be on Mint Cinnamon 22.2
-Install Reloaded-ii for SMTVV using Protontricks & setup-linux.exe
-Try the desktop app created, it doesn't function
-Open Reloaded-ii.exe (not the desktop app), it opens
-Add SMTVV to the game list
-Click launch application
-Either quits instantly or doesn't launch at all

Expected Behaviour
I'd expect the game to just launch. I'd also expect the desktop app to visibly do something.

Screenshots
If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.

Additional Context
Everything for SMTVV worked (mostly) fine on Windows, and then I swapped to Mint, tried to get it working with SMTVV, and it isn't working. It was always a little buggy on Windows before, but now on Mint it just straight up never functions.
I've also tried this with Metaphor, same deal.

Pretty weird case.
Does it even boot unmodded?

Without mods, Reloaded shouldn't really touch any game code whatsoever- so seeing a successfully loaded loader and a crash is unusual.

No mods whatsoever. And the games run fine in regular Proton launching from Steam rather than Reloaded.

I've heard of a similar case once where a game said it couldn't detect a compatible GPU. Oddly using ASI Loader worked. Though as for why- it's a mystery. It is the exact same Proton environment either way after all.

Just tried to get ASI loader working and I think I may be missing something. It's not working (the game launches but the mods don't load), I get the feeling it's me doing something wrong and not Reloaded.
When the guide says "If you are using Steam to launch your games you can, Right Click Game in Library, Properties and in Launch Options add WINEDLLOVERRIDES="version=n,b" %command%.", I assume the %command% is meant to be replaced with something?
I tried both just using that as %command% and replacing it with wine SMT5V-Win64-Shipping.exe, because I assumed I maybe needed to do that since the guide mentioned in terminal you would do the overrides thing but use wine [file] where %command% is in the steam instructions.
I'm a bit confused, but fairly certain Reloaded either isn't launching with it or isn't loading the mods, and I get the feeling it's some fault of mine that has led Reloaded to not launch with ASI.
I'll probably try to figure this out later but if you notice an issue with what I said I did- point it out!

[Sewer56]

%command% is a placeholder for whatever Steam puts in there.

Rather, check the WINEDLLOVERRIDES="version=n,b" part.
It's likely the ASI Loader didn't get dropped as version.dll but another DLL name.

It tells you in the dialog, but in case you missed it, sort by date in your game folder and check the latest.

Worked! Just had to use "WINEDLLOVERRIDES="winmm=n,b" %command%"
The game seems to be a bit laggier than usual, but I've also never played much with it on Linux before so that might be a Linux issue rather than a Reloaded one. Thank you!!

Just to chime in here, same issue (Launching game through reloaded crashes) and resolution above to deploy the ASI Loader and "WINEDLLOVERRIDES="winmm=n,b" %command%" as launch parameters work.

For reference, running the game with GE-Proton 10-26
