PayPalAnother cleanup point-release is out for the Direct3D 10/11 to Vulkan translation layer DXVK, with 1.4.6 bringing in some bug fixes.
Since it's a point release, there's no big fancy new features but if you were having issues in a few Windows games with DXVK+Wine perhaps some of these will help you. From the release notes:
- Fixed a bug potentially causing crashes during display mode changes or when closing a game.
- Fixed an issue that would cause CPU-limited performance to degrade over time, especially in workloads involving Deferred Contexts.
- American Truck Simulator / Euro Truck Simulator 2: Fixed rendering issues (#1250)
- Final Fantasy XIV: Fixed radial blur not working due to a division-by-zero workaround.
- Warcraft III Reforged: Implemented missing DXGI features to allow the game to run (#1252)
See the release notes on GitHub.
Want to test it? If you're using Steam Play Proton, you can download the release bundle from GitHub and simply replace the existing .dll files found in somewhere like:
path-to-your/SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/Proton 4.11/dist
Inside there you will see "lib" and "lib64", for 32bit and 64bit and both have a wine/dxvk folder inside where you can replace the files with new versions. Do so at your own risk but it's usually harmless. If you mess anything up, to refresh it you can just re-install Proton from the Tools menu in Steam.

Outside of Steam Play Proton, you can also usually grab updated versions of DXVK with the help of Lutris for the rest of your Wine gaming needs.

Anyway, please check if it works with this commit applied. The github builds are already updated.
Quoting: tuubiQuoting: ShmerlI remember seeing reports, that some games were broken due to some locales using , instead of . for floating point notation.My (Finnish) locale does that too, but it works for me.
Quoting: BrisseInteresting! Debian and Swedish is correct. At first glance, 'LC_ALL=C.UTF-8 %command%' didn't do anything but I will investigate further tomorrow.Seeing as the game fails to set locale en_US.UTF-8, you could check if it's installed, and generate it if necessary. "sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales" should do the trick.
Thanks! I tried reconfiguring locales and added en_US.UTF-8 which got rid of the warning at the end of the CLI output. Sadly ETS2 is still not starting though.
Quoting: x_wingQuoting: Comandante ÑoñardoI guess there must be a reason for that naming scheme, like some kind of structural legacy from older versions of Windows. .
Indeed, they say that it's for legacy purposes. IMO is because they are lazy and didn't want to fix their PE loader.
It's because every single application + installer script had system32 hardcoded as a path so as to let people just be able to straight up compile 64-bit versions without any other changes they decided to go this idiotic route. And when it detects that you run a 32-bit application the OS redirects everything so these applications still use system32 even though they in reality store files in SySWOW64.
What is a much much worse problem is their "invention" of releasing version specific versions of libc for each and every release of Virtual Studio. Something that they themselves apparently finds idiotic since all of their own applications don't use them, they link instead to the versions provided by Windows itself...
