Describe the issue.

MelonLoader not starting at all when the game is launched.

Fix

What worked for me was changing the name of version.dll to winhttp.dll

And adding this to the launch options: WINEDLLOVERRIDES="winhttp=n,b" %command%

Environment: Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS x86_64

That seems like it's working as intended. Not all games will load version.dll, so the proxy allows for multiple other DLLs to be used (winhttp being one of them).
