WRC 9 Amazon Prime crashes and cant launch

Like the title says, I'm trying to run WRC 9 on Amazon Prime Games, however it just keeps crashing or it just doesn't do anything at all. I've looked through the FAQ and other similar games but I'm just stumped on this one. I'm using wine because that at least gets me a crash report to send in if I want, but any help with this would be awesome. attached is the log from the heroic launcher.

"winePrefix": "/home/deck/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/default",
Change this to be /home/deck/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/WRC9 and see if that helps

from vcrun2019/2022 I assume it's needed for controller support it uses windows.gaming.input apis and because of that it needs vccorlib140 im guessing see here: https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/3334 it's on my todo list to fix the MR, and hopefully it will get merged

I have vcrun2022 already installed, but what's this: WINEDLLOVERRIDES="xinput1_3=n" Supposed to go? or is that something I need to install in winetricks?

add it to the environment variables WINEDLLOVERRIDES on the left side and then quote part on the right side
