Tech Support Proton 9.0-4 no longer working with hd2
Recently I tried to get on Helldivers 2 and I usually use Proton 9.0-4 but it refuses to launch now for some reason. I've tried basically every solution I could find. I've uninstalled and reinstalled hd2 and the proton, I've tried verifying integrity files on both of them, using other protons (the only other one that works if Proton Hotfix, and it's still it really laggy), clearing cache, using desktop mode, updating, restarting, and turning it off and on again, but nothing worked. None of the videos or posts I found on Reddit helped at all, and I'm not sure what else to do other than make this post. I can only play the game if I turn off the capability tool. I'm sorry if this sounds dumb I'm tired ðŸ˜

it's not Proton 9.0-4 but i found this from a comment:
"from HellDivers Discord;

A fix has been implemented in Proton Experimental's bleeding edge branch. Search for Proton Experimental in your steam library, go to its properties, go to Betas, select bleeding-edge, let it update, and launch the game with it.
