I haven't had any luck getting it to run either, and I've tried quite a few different proton versions, both via heroic games launcher but also via bottles. No luck at all.

EDIT: Asked someone on nobara's discord and they suggested installing "vcrun2022" via winetricks, and sure enough, that made it start. Maybe there's some DLL file that mfc140 and vcrun2022 share that was needed?

Thanks it worked. I installed both mfc140 and vcrun2022, I don't know which one did the trick.
