Quoting: GuestThis is huge. It will make a lot of games go from silver to gold or even to platinum on protondb.

You are correct. The wine bug tracker is about ready to explode! I'm compiling FAudio/Wine 4.3 right now.

Fix 41670 BattlEye launcher stuck at 'Starting BattlEye Service...' (PUBG, Planetside2, H1Z1: King of the Kill, Tibia 11)
and
Fix 45841 Battleye's BEDaisy.sys requires that PsThreadType and PsProcessType are defined

Has anyone tried to start PUBG with it yet? That has failed so far because of this bug:

As soon as Valve adopted Wine 4.3 into Proton we can see how much it brings.

I tried it out without the staging patches and I don't hear audio for 'Far Cry 4', beyond the videos.
So, nothing has changed for me. I'm thinking that SDL2 might be misconfigured. I'm after debians build
logs for sdl2, namely the configure line. I use pulse when compiling wine but I'll try it without it.

Is this implementation of Faudio in Wine 4.3 compiled with ffmpeg support?

But isn't FAudio included in Proton already ?

If you stay using steam on wine maybe can appear odd behaviour: consist steamwebhelper (wine create 2 process of steamwebhelper) up cpu usage and on /bin/cef/cef.win7/ on steam folder

Create debug file and grow very quickly (in my case in 2 min up to 2.2gb and more)

If appear before cited behaviour, kill steamwebhelper process with higher cpu usage (another process dont need kill it) and on /bin/cef/cef.win7/ see if have debug file and follow to delete it and delete chrome_elf and libcef.dll

Before cited steps with steam opened and logged

QuoteImproved handling of kernel objects.

I'm curious guys, what does that means?

Sorry to disappoint you, but FAudio was already bundled with Proton so nothing changes in this regard ;). See https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/wiki/Changelog#316-5
