Problems launching F.E.A.R.

Hi folks, recently made the jump from windows to Linux and managed to get some games running, however F.E.A.R. still gives me some troubles. Version is from GOG, Platinum edition, first I thought it was the install folder name, changed that, got a different error, then read up on different proton/wine versions, tried that, get different errors under that too. I am not getting too much out of the error log. seems to me it does not recognize the game, starts some stuff then there is a wine registry error (not sure where that comes from or how I can fix that)
0090:err:hid:udev_bus_init UDEV monitor creation failed. Anyone any ideas? Cause I am out of em after trying different wine versions, starting the game with launch option PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 %command% as suggested in protondb, but still no luck.

screenshots of log attached. Anyone that has any pointers for a linux/proton noob?

Thanks, Lex
