Run DxDiag for a specific game?
Guppy Aug 11, 2023
Is there a way (easy) I can run dxdiag in the a specifik games prefix with the chosen proton version?

All I can think of is some sed trickery in launch options but that seems a little sketchy

I think this is the proper way to do it outside of Steam:

STEAM_COMPAT_CLIENT_INSTALL_PATH="$HOME/.steam/steam" STEAM_COMPAT_DATA_PATH=/path/to/SteamLibrary/steamapps/compatdata/621830/ "/path/to/SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/Proton 8.0/proton" run dxdiag

You need to figure out the correct paths on your system and app id for the game.

sed trickery might actually be the easier way!
