You must install the direct X, and the video files in the game directory from windows explorer

Install protonup-qt at desktop mode in discover app, set GE-proton (last) in compatibility settings of the game in game mode. Also install all directx, as example u can use protontricks. Sorry, I am Russian, my English is not so good.

Isn't this game shown as yellow in verified status? In such case it should just run isn't it?

1. from discover install Protontricks.
2. lunch it and from games list choose Sherlock Holmes Testament
3. on first windows choose 'select the default wineprefix'
4. on second choose 'install a windows dll or component'
5. this is the list I have installed :
- physx
6. I am running it on proton 8.0-3

EDIT : after restart it stopped working...

EDIT 2 : after issue from first edit note I deleted all prefixes for that game in protonfix and installed only physx and it worked
