Paying $$ for crossover is undesirable for access to this benchmark.

It would be nice to have an alternative to running Assetto Corsa with crossover. Currently our attempts to launch the game using Wine and Proton alone have not worked (re: @XDynames). Any ideas or work arounds are appreciated.

I think this issue also relates to one of our goals of improving accessibility (https://github.com/XDynames/assetto-corsa-interface/issues/6) for researchers to contribute to this field/benchmark. I have made three issues to discuss the creation of a Perception (#37), Planning/Dynamics (#38) and Control (#39) benchmark so that researchers can validate their methods on contained benchmarks without requiring the sim for validation. @MatthewHowe we spoke about this on walkies to sushi

Adding support to use proton as the runtime to remove crossover as a requirement here
