Ubuntu 22.04 with Proton 7 is a no go. Ark starts with the option screens and looks busy for about a minute then closes. The game never opens on the screen. Vulkan drivers are up to date. This computer is a new install that was completed today so all drivers and packages are up to date. I am running Nvidia-515 drivers. and a GTX Titan X (M), 128 GB of Corsair 3000 Mhz DDR4 and a AMD 2950X. It is not a resource or performance issue.
There are no errors. No log directory in the Saves directory. It isn't getting that far.
