Game crashing before main menu after installing Post Processing

[GooberiusBaal]

Game ran fine before installing post processing, but after doing so the game launches, begins caching ENB, the screen goes completely black, then crashes after about 30 seconds

MO2 has no warnings, and no crash log is generated

I'm running the game on archlinux via proton (MO2 was installed via NaK) so I'm thinking it may be a missing dll? But I have no idea what it is because there's no log of any kind.

Possibly a missing DLL, an incorrect version of DLL or an incompatible DLL in your base game folder. ENB expects only d3d11.dll and d3dcompiler_46e.dll. It could also be something about your video drivers or related background processes. It's hard to say with Linux-Windows emulation for this game. Try reviewing this topic.

Swapped to GE-proton9-27 and the game now launches

Sorry for the slight waste of your time, and thank you for your help

One more thing for anyone else with this issue:

xLODGen (most likely along with SSEEdit, TexGen, and other tools) doesn't work with GE-Proton9-27
The solution is to temporarily swap back to GE-Proton10-25 to run those, and use GE-Proton9-27 to run the actual game
Not ideal, but functional
