DXVK, the awesome project to implement a Vulkan-based compatibility layer for Direct3D 11 for use with Wine has advanced further with a fresh release.
Version 0.50 was released last night which includes support for non-native screen resolutions including display mode changes and support for D3D11 vertex fetch rates if VK_EXT_vertex_attribute_divisor is supported.
In addition, there's optimizations for AMD GPU owners using RADV, improved performance for NVIDIA GPU users when games use 24-bit depth buffers as well as a fix for NVIDIA which was causing some corrupted graphics.
As for game support, fixes went in for Batman Arkham City, Dishonored 2, Far Cry 5, Mortal Kombat X, Skyrim SE and The Witcher 3.
See the release notes here on GitHub.

There is a texture issue fix for Shadow Warrior 2 as well. And people are getting good framerates (at least on pictures).

Quoting: RTherenWhat is Skyrimg? A typo I presumeA backend for graphicsmagick (just kidding, there is a special field to report typos under the article -- which I did on your behalf ;) ).
Still, it's always sad to see developers ressources being wasted on working around driver-specific issues. Long live open source drivers!

Is there a simple guide for setting this up on Ubuntu based distros?
And also one question too ; is it confilicting or affecting existing Wine Staging setup or is it build upon it but have completely different prefixes , environment etc?

I asked the same question last week on Shmerl's Witcher thread (here on GamingOnLinux), where I just saw you among some older comments:
For me the easiest and most simple way turned out to be:
1) Got wine3.6-staging (or now 3.7-staging)
2) Installed Mesa 18.0 (or above) and llvm6.0 (or above) via Oibaf's Updated and Optimized Open Graphics Drivers on launchpad
3) They should now also show up, when you enter in the console: glxinfo | grep "OpenGL version"
4) This done, I followed the instructions (copy/paste) provided also here on the occasion of running Kingdom Come Deliverance under dxvk by RaZy-bisCuiT at 16 April 2018 at 11:42.
NOTE TO supersede each "0.42" within the commands with "0.50" (the latter being the up-to-date version presently)
5) To check whether you got everything right, activate the dxvk-hud before starting a game from your prefix: export DXVK_HUD=devinfo
More info actually in Shmerl's egregious thread.

Now waiting for DXUP in order to enjoy Stalker games with D3D10+ and better performance. Now DXUP doesn't even compile on linux because author develops it in Visual Studio on Windows.
