This is my childhood game and I can't make it work on Linux. The menu starts fine and the character selection screen as well, but once I select a character, it crashes. I tried running it with different renderers and different Wine/Proton versions, and it's always the same result.

I enabled output debugging in Lutris. Here's the result: Link

And this is my system info: Link

Please help!

Appreciate the help.

I doubt it's the second thing because for an obscure game like this that at some point became free, most uploads on the internet are probably the same. But I will try a different one if the first option doesn't work out.

Speaking of it, could you provide a more specific instruction or a proper package name for me to install? Because I tried searching for "multilib" and "32-bit libraries" and I doubt any of the ones I found were what I need, but I can't tell it all looks pretty confusing.

Have a look at this link

https://linuxways.net/mint/setup-wine-linux-mint-21/

It has steps for enabling 32 bit support, around step 2 enables and step 3 installs wine again after. You need to go through the wine install again after enabling 32 bit support (i386). If you don't get all the packages with :i386 at the end remove wine and then install again.

With the upload, if it isn't bittorrent it may be corrupted without being checked. Maybe look for an md5sum and confirm you have the file as expected. If the md5sum checks out you are sorted, if not you will at least know. That said it is as you say very unlikely to be the file, much more likely the libraries. Let me know how you go.
