Two new updates for community-build versions of Proton are out now. As is tradition for GE-Proton, a hotfix arrived to fix problems and a new version of Proton-Sarek (that I recently wrote about) for older GPUs is also out.
Confused on Proton? See my beginner's guide.
GE-Proton 9-20 quickly followed on from the recent GE-Proton 9-19 release that includes these changes:
- Revert DRI_PRIME auto-setting (broke too many non-standard setups)
- DXVK updated with
dxvk.hideIntegratedGraphics = True
for Diablo IV (doitsujin/dxvk@125f0ac) to resolve the grey screen issue on systems with AMD iGPU + dGPU.
See more on the GitHub.

Additionally there's Proton-Sarek 9-20, for older GPUs which includes the GE-Proton hotfix above, plus Proton-Sarek 9-19 also includes these changes:
Global Prefix Update:
- Restored Global Prefix to Valve’s/GE default configuration.
- Removed outdated customizations initially added to resolve issues that are now addressed in current versions of Wine and Proton.
- Two-week testing confirmed that previous issues are resolved, allowing removal of these customizations to avoid potential conflicts.
- No impact on other customizations: Changes only apply to the Global Prefix. Custom prefixes for specific games, including those from GE-Proton, Wine-GE, and additional Sarek-specific prefixes, remain unaffected.
Need for Speed (2003-2008) Mod Support:
- Added custom prefixes for Need for Speed games from 2003-2008 to improve compatibility with mods.
- Supported games:
- Need for Speed: Underground
- Need for Speed: Underground 2
- Need for Speed: Most Wanted
- Need for Speed: ProStreet
- Need for Speed: Undercover
- Executable naming requirement: Ensure your game executable matches one of the following for mod compatibility:
speed.exe
,speed2.exe
,nfs.exe
, ornfsc.exe

I briefly misread Proton-Sarek in the headline as "Proton-Shrek" - that'd be quite a different piece of gaming software!
