Symptoms

The game works pretty well, with a good framerate and without stuttering. Logitech G29 Wheel works with Force Feedback and you only have to set axis and buttons to play, but it can't enter in online races on Multiplayer. Also, In-Game videos are not shown, like the video-messages on the career mode.

Reproduction

You only have to press PLAY

About In-Game videos, it where located on: SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/NASCAR Heat 4/NascarHeat4_Data/StreamingAssets/PC/Movies

There are 2 files for each video, one MP4 (h264) with video files and another with the same name with ".ogg.bynary" extension with the sound

This game is developed with Unity3D. I don't know if Unity games have issues with network game when you use Wine/Proton

After installing <Link removed by moderator>, the game shows the videos. Here another game with the media foundation videos problem.

I've added a steam log to the first message trying to enter in a multiplayer race. The game only shows one.
