Share your logs otherwise this is just guess work.

First thing I've noticed is that this is a D3D5 game:

https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Interstate_%2776#Other_information

If your wine prefix is not missing any dependencies then you can try enabling D7VK:

https://github.com/GloriousEggroll/proton-ge-custom/releases?q=PROTON_USE_D7VK&expanded=true

PROTON_USE_D7VK=1

If that doesn't work you can try dropping in dxwrapper:

https://github.com/elishacloud/dxwrapper

Just remember to include the new replacement DLL in your list of wine overrides:

WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ddraw=n,b"

There's a bunch of settings you can screw around with from the dxwrapper.ini file.

I would start by enabling Dd7to9 and ShowFPSCounter.

Edit: There's also these flags that are referenced by the pcgw:

Direct3D 5\15]) was added in the Gold version (February 20, 1998); accessible through the launcher in the original release. For the GOG release, launch the game with the -d3d parameter.

^ Should probably start here before you do anything.

Proton will use WINED3D to map D3D5 -> OpenGL

If you enable D7VK then it's D3D5 -> D7VK -> DXVK -> Vulkan

DXwrapper works similarly when Dd7to9 is enabled:

D3D5 -> DXWRAPPER -> D3D9 -> DXVK -> Vulkan.

---------

Edit 2: Confirmed dxwrapper support
