For all games I've tested, SHIFT key doesn't translate through to making typed letters caps.

For all games I've tested, SHIFT key doesn't translate through to making typed letters caps.

This isn't Proton's fault, and has nothing to do with the Windows games. There are more than a few reports regarding the shift key's broken functionality on Valve's Github issue tracker for the the Linux Steam client. Looks like it has been there since at least 2013:

Platinum

• Mortal Kombat Komplete Edition
  
• Scribblenauts Unlimited

Silver

• DOOM - Hangs on black screen out of the box. Requires launch option of "+r_renderAPI 1" to work. Also crashes if you context switch back to the desktop.
  
  
• Deus Ex: Human Revolution - Loads and runs well. Exiting to desktop hangs up for several minutes, but does eventually get there.
  
  
• Dead Space - Works fine, except that the keyboard is non-responsive, both in the menus and in game play. The Steam overlay still responds. I found that if I context switched out to the desktop and then back into the game, the keyboard started working.
  
  
• Sid Meier's Railroads - Works fine with the exception that content switching to desktop breaks the graphics rendering. The game doesn't crash but the screen is just black.

Borked

• Anno 2070 - Received prompt to test system graphics capability. Selected yes and a picture of the earth appeared for a few second then back to desktop. Product activation window then loads but is black and unuseable. It hangs here forever, I assume awaiting user input.
  
  
• Batman: Arkham City GOTY - Failed to load
  
  
• Batman: Arkham Asylum GOTY Edition - Failed to load
  
  
• F.E.A.R. 2 - Loads ok, the menus all work, sounds works and when you load the campaign game, the graphics engine starts ok. However, as soon as you get past the first ingame cutscene and gain control of your character, it seems to go crazy with your view point spinning madly and it does not respond to the mouse. Keyboard controls seem to work as you can see the leg animation when using the movement keys while the viewpoint was stuck pointing straight down.
  
  
• F.E.A.R. 3 - Failed to load
  
  
• Homeworld Remastered Collection - Failed to load
  
  
• Injustice: Gods Amoung Us Ultimate Edition - Displays splash screen but then an MS C++ Runtime error dialog appears:
  

      Program: Z:\home\user\Games\Steam\steamapps\common\Injust...
      
      R6025
      - pure virtual function call    

  
  
• Left 4 Dead - Loads fine, menus all work and Steam Cloud integration seems ok (it picked up my control settings). I loaded a single player campaign, got the loading picture and then during the load process the game crashed back to desktop.
  
  
• Sid Meier's Ace Patrol - Failed to load
  
  
• Sid Meier's Civilization III: Complete - Failed to load
  
  
• Sid Meier's Civilization IV - Failed to Launch. "Missing Executable": steamapps/common/Sid Meier's Civilization IV/Civilization IV.app
  
  
• The Lord of the Rings: War in the North - Failed to load

Issues present in ALL games

• Most games using DirectSound API will stutter.
  
• Mouse is broken in all fps games.

Working out of the box

• Shadow Man
  
• Quake III Arena
  
• Grand Theft Auto: Vice City
  
• Grand Theft Auto III
  
• DOOM
  
• Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
  
• Grand Theft Auto V

Working after specific workarounds

• Serious Sam HD: The Second Encounter (not to be confused with Fusion): You need to switch to OpenAL (sfx_iAPI = 1) and reboot the game, otherwise stuttering will be massive.
  
• Mafia: Enable software sound processing and copy a DX8 to DX9 converter to fix shadows.
  
• Unreal Tournament 2004: Open System/UT2004.ini and set RenderDevice to OpenGLDrv.OpenGLRenderDevice.

Broken

• Quake Live: The game randomly closes itself while playing without reporting errors. Terminal won't report errors.
  
• Mafia II: The game won't launch.
  
• Crash Bandicoot™ N. Sane Trilogy: The game won't launch.
  
• Batman™: Arkham Knight: The game won't launch.

There are 2 "Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas" game titles in your library (with the same name!), one of them is the package for Mac OS. You need to install the other one.
