[GTA IV The Complete Edition] Game Running Absolutely Horribly
CPU: Intel© Core™ i5-14400F × 10
GPU: NVIDIA Corporation AD107 [GeForce RTX 4060]
DISTRO: Linux Mint 22.3 - Xfce 64-bit
PROTON: Proton Experimental
EDIT, for future people:
USE LUTRIS. I Installed the fitgirl repack with lutris and the game runs smoothly.
I'm not sure what lutris does differently but whatever it does it does it well!

Hello, I'm making a post here after trying for about two days to try and get this game running in any way that was tolerable.
I have tried adding fixes, tweaking settings, redownloading the game, getting a different crack, etc. nothing has worked so far. i have looked online, in this subreddit, on pcgamingwiki to find any help at all and again, I have found nothing.
The only thing that has even seemingly helped with the performance was lowering the in game settings.
I initially downloaded steamunlocked's rip, and it ran like shit. I have no idea what crack SU uses and i'm not sure how to find it. sorry :[
Then i tried fitgirl's repack because i saw some people recommending it and it performs the same. Their website says that is has "Mr.Goldberg + Christsnatcher crack applied over"
I really don't understand why this game in particular refuses to run properly on my pc, i can play much more demanding games through proton just fine, and i've never had to troubleshoot this long to get it working, so some help would be much appreciated!
