Valve have rolled out Steam Play into the stable Linux Steam Client, along with touch controls for Steam Link

or just make a category called windows and add those gsmes to it and collapse it. no big deal.

Quoting: soulsourceWait a second, doesn't Steam Play require LLVM 7 (which isn't out) and Mesa 18.2 (which isn't out either) on AMD hardware?

That's what Valve recommends, but it's been running fine for me on Debian Sid with Mesa 18.1.6 and LLVM 6.0.1.

Or a category called Proton. Is what I'm going to do in my own tests.

Well, I tried it for one (not whitelisted) game, and had a GPU-hang almost immediately.

Part of me is happy to play the games
But truth is don't want to signal to devs I am a windows user.
If it could get reported to game devs how many people buy on linux and/or use wine it would help i think.

I have "Proton", "Proton - works" and "Proton - fails" categories. Then I can see at a glance what I have, versus what I have actually tried.

I've been mining through my humble bundle purchases looking for Steam keys I never claimed as there was no Linux version around. Cross reference those titles with the compatibility reports and then activate the titles which have a chance of working. The results so far have added roughly 40 titles to my Steam account. Not all of these are Windows-only titles - some of the games I either missed first time around or the Linux ports came later!

You should see this page: https://github.com/doitsujin/dxvk/wiki/Driver-support

I've been lucky not to have run into those issues myself, but apparently there are issues with GPU hangs when using LLVM6.

Quoting: x_wingThis was fast. Nevertheless, they should start working on page similar to winedb. Right know I feel like the game test result/workarounds are quite dispersed on the web/forums. There is a lot of people testing lots of things but much of the knowledge gets lost in the immensity of the web :(

Whitelisting is what Valve is doing. I've been watching the github requests and from what I see you can't depend on users for this info at large. I see so many people that seem to have fired up a game for 15 minutes and claim it should be whitelisted. That isn't *real* QA at all. As Valve vets games they will be whitelisted. I would assume you will see a lot more whitelisted games popping up in the very near future. It's been a week, I think they've moved quite fast.

There is this community-based spreadsheet that will tell you a lot if you're unaware:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1DcZZQ4HL_Ol969UbXJmFG8TzOHNnHoj8Q1f8DIFe8-8/htmlview?sle=true#gid=0

I know the spreadsheet, but it doesn't allow to give a good feedback or workarounds that people made in order to get to a 100% working game, not to mention that if it keeps growing it will eventually collapse. Right now there are plenty of games that needs wmp9 or similar extras in order to work, and that information is quite tricky (if not impossible) to share on a spreadsheet. Also, I doubt that Valve will be able to workaround such problems in the short term.

Maybe a quick solution would be to create a steamplay forum on each windows-only game. Of course, I'm not sure if the publisher will be happy with such a move (I understand that they're the ones that moderates their forums).

Means that Volvo has no problem handling the Tickets.
Good news.

This is what I've done, if they work when I install & run them they get added to the main list, anything that flat out refuses to work I'm hiding for the moment.
