Could you perhaps tell us what this "I did everything right" entails? Because something probably went wrong there.

Well i extracted the repack into the download folder, made a game directory and inside it the game prefix, then i added the game into lutris, ran the setup exe and after it was done changed the executable to the finished exe. I also changed the previx architecture to 64x and replaced proton ge or whatever wirh system 11. My machine is kinda old

Could be a problem with how you set the prefix. I don't think you're supposed to make a prefix inside a game directory for instance, but I could be wrong.

And system 11 might lack the game specific patches you need. Try a newer version of Ge-proton or Lutris-GE perhaps?
