@Stefh so a quick follow-up. I actually have this game and tinkered with it this morning to get it working. Here are the steps to get it working:
Click the Settings icon on Hyper Light Drifter (the 3 stacked slider bars icon) then click on WINETRICKS. Once Winetricks loads, click OK, select Install a Window DLL or component, then scroll to d3dcompiler_ with versions 42, 43, 46, and 47. Try installing any of them, I used the latest version, 47. But if you get an error, go back and try a different version. You can confirm that it was installed by going back into Winetricks and the version you installed should now be checked.
That should be it. It should work now. If that doesn't work, let me know and I'll try to help you out.
Alternatively, if you're more comfortable with command line stuff, go to the prefix folder for Hyper Light Drifter and run:
winetricks d3dcompiler_47or try changing the version number to 42, 43, or 46 if that doesn't work.ALSO! I just want to point out that this actually isn't an issue with proton specifically. There are many Windows users complaining of this exact same issue.
Thank you! I made it working after installing 47, 46 and finally 43! Thank you 🥰
Yay! Happy to help! Enjoy!
