Why a game (unmodded) doesn't work will usually be pretty obvious just from the errors you get
I might've just been lucky, but so far the only time I had to look up a fix was for battle.net launcher, which ever since a while back has to be done after every update.

But when it comes to mods it can be a lot trickier, and I don't really have a general purpose solution. Hopefully the game is popular enough that someone else has a guide on what to do.
I've never played subnautica so I don't know, but if the mods have their own modified DLLs then you're probably supposed to use
DLLOVERRIDES
, so maybeWINEDLLOVERRIDES="ribbon=n,b"
since it's called ribbon.dllSome other issues I've had with modding is that the mod might expect the game to be in a certain directory or for directories to have certain names or there might be some problem because Windows isn't case sensitive while Linux is.
Honestly the mods are generally not causing issues from my experience, it's the mod loaders and what not.
Amazing, I'll give all this a shot!
