WINEDLLOVERRIDES variable lets you temporarily specify DLL overrides. It can be used from a command line as well as in the Steam launcher. In the case of the command line, simply prepend the usual start command with:
WINEDLLOVERRIDES="d3d8,msacm32,msvfw32,dinput8,dsound,dsoal-aldrv,Xidi.32=n,b"
LAUNCH OPTIONS to WINEDLLOVERRIDES="d3d8,msacm32,msvfw32,dinput8,dsound,dsoal-aldrv,Xidi.32=n,b" %command%.
winecfg tool to make a permanent override for a specific Wine prefix. In case of Proton, Steam creates the Wine prefix for Splinter Cell in $HOME/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/13560/pfx. Then you need to run winecfg with that path:
WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/13560/pfx" winecfg
Libraries tab and fill the combo box with the name of the library you wish to override and hit Add. You can verify that it's been added to the list below with (native, builtin) suffix. Then close the window with the OK button.
