Attempted with 7.0-2, GE-Proton7-16, 5.0-10 -- same results on all.

Manually downloaded VC2015 x64 from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=52685 and installed using winetricks by opening explorer from the default prefix, then using that to start the VCR installer.
The use of a manually-downloaded x64 VC2015 runtime was because Protontricks kept trying to install the x86 version instead of the 64-bit one that's needed. You must use a Proton 6 version, as Proton 7 doesn't seem to work at all with this game. I'm not sure if a GE build is needed, but based on previous reports probably not.

Was reading the Metal Gear Solid 3 fix when I realized it was the exact same crash this game was doing. Tried combining what had been used in the past here with the MGS3 method and it surprisingly worked.
Has a Windows UI-based pre-launch window for configuration that appears before the game starts each time you load it.
If getting a slight bit of FPS drop is an issue, you can cut back one or two graphics settings to get a steady 60 FPS, otherwise it's fine at the 50-60 FPS range.
