DXVK, the Vulkan compatibility layer for Direct3D 11 and Wine has a fresh release reducing CPU overhead

By -

Since there's a lot of excitement around DXVK we've been following it closely and a fresh release made it out last night.

For those who don't remember it, DXVK is the compatibility layer for running Direct3D 11 games in Wine using Vulkan. It's a very promising project, with a lot of people having fun with it already on Linux.

The latest release, version 0.41, has a slight reduction of overall CPU overhead, has better GPU saturation when Deferred Contexts are used for rendering and features a configurable HUD. The announcement also notes five bugs fixed, one which will make Mesa users happy as it fixes tessellation shaders causing a crash in Mesa drivers.

An an example of how it runs, here's a video from well-known Linux YouTuber Xpander showing off Kingdom Come: Deliverance using a previous build of DXVK:

Very impressive stuff there, hopefully it will make it into Wine proper when it's further developed. Projects like this, could really help more people dual-boot and eventually be full Linux gamers.

Does someone have the possibility to try out Battlefield 3 and 4?

I own 4 from bundled copy but origin is proving difficult to run if i can i get origin working properly then i will test later today.

BF3 I don't think will work because of Battlelog.
I tried out BF4 tho and it works pretty well! There are a few bugs, and (at least on my AMD card) particles draw as black boxes, which can be pretty irritating. Also Punkbuster is not really happy about us using modified DLLs and you probably will get kicked from servers. Singleplayer and Unranked/No PB Servers should be fine though :)
I was running Medium Settings, 720p on a RX480 at 100-200fps ^-^

they had to say it, huh? ;)

Its my old Intro clip a person made me. I have no skill to make a new one, so this will have to do it :)


Made a tutorial video also (might be still complicated for some)

edit: i messed up on the video edit also, you need to do VulkanSDK install before doing step 4

Spoiler, click me

I'm following your tutorial. I have a question for now, why install Vulkan Windows version (VulkanSDK-1.0.65.0-Installer.exe) instead of the Linux one, since it's native? It's simply because we use Wine?
(Sorry if it seems dumb...)
Can I install the lastest version (1.1.70.1)?
Thanks!

yeah we are using wine, you can install the latest also, its backwards compatible anyway, just wine has support up to 1.0.51 atm i think and my nvidia drivers (stable ones, not vulkan beta) have 1.0.65 only.

what is messed up? visuals? what driver version? as it works fine for me with nvidia.
390.48 drivers
Yeah, the visuals, as illustrated in the screenshot from my original post. Still on 384.111, so that might be a reason.

Edit: upgraded to 390.40, and that fixes the glitches. Great! 30+ FPS with my GTX 950 on medium settings :-).

A bit worried to mess up a working configuration with wine-staging 2.21, though.

Doesn't everyone use a container application like PlayOnLinux or just prefixes?
Wasn't the specific wine prefix I was worried about, but wine installation itself, as wine-staging 3.5 did replace wine-staging 2.21. As they came from different PPAs, I was able to revert back however.

Another question... ^^
For the last task, i want to use Witcher 3 (GOG version) but it's already installed on my System, as i tested it with wine-staging-2.21.
Can I just copy/paste the folder into the _DXVK_prefix?
I didn't install Steam also, I don't think it's necessary in my case, is it?

So do we install Vulkan SDK twice in the end ?
Or just once before we add the WORD variables in HKEY registries ?

Also i think you have a typo in your winetricks.sh
Last command is winetricks $install instead of wine $install

EDIT _ my mistake , i mixed up two scripts

that is strange. Try to comment the WINEDEBUG=-all line, then wine should throw more info into the terminal, that might reveal whats the problem. I haven't tested Witcher 3 (don't own it) myself maybe you need some special dll overrides with this game.

at least it seems you succeeded with installing dxvk into your prefix as the info comes up

Maybe it's just missing dll as you said. Maybe I'll try with an another game...

yes you can copy paste and use the Steam.sh script modified to launch Witcher3.exe
this doesn't show any error, looks like it launched fine.

Yeah, but i don't see the game, it just launches nothing.

that is strange. Try to comment the WINEDEBUG=-all line, then wine should throw more info into the terminal, that might reveal whats the problem. I haven't tested Witcher 3 (don't own it) myself maybe you need some special dll overrides with this game.

at least it seems you succeeded with installing dxvk into your prefix as the info comes up

I get this without the WINEDEBUG option:

Spoiler, click me

Maybe it's just missing dll as you said. Maybe I'll try with an another game...

hmm doesnt seem like its missing anything just "fixme" errors which shouldn't be a big deal. no real "err" messages. maybe something with your Window manager, doesnt create a window somehow or something, might want to tryto enable wine virtual desktop under winecfg.

Allright
Managed to install it
But ended up with an error :
double free or corruption (!prev)


hmm where you got that error? or with what?

Elex
Tried to run it and got that. There was also an exception window but I could not select it.
It's odd , I get the two logos then a black screen.
On regular wine (3.4 I think) i managed to see both the intros and the main menu but trying to start a game resulted in a black screen.

Just DX11 (and maybe DX10 later). DX9 is different.
