GE-Proton 9-26 brings fixes for Vermintide 2, GTA V Enhanced, Flight Simulator 2024 and more

GE-Proton 9-26 is out now bringing with it a bunch of fixes for various games on Linux / Steam Deck so here's what's new. Be sure to check out my GE-Proton on Steam Deck install guide and more info on all the different Proton versions.

Firstly, as usual, GE-Proton has pulled in changes from the upstream projects it's based on including:

• wine updated to latest bleeding edge
• dxvk updated to latest git
• vkd3d-proton updated to latest git
• vkd3d updated to latest upstream tag
• dxvk-nvapi updated to latest upstream tag
• latest game-specific fixes imported from upstream proton

Some new patches have landed fixing issues in multiple games:

• Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 SU1 needs WerRegisterCustomMetadata -- thanks fxtentacle
• taskschd patches backported from upstream wine, allows NCSoft Purple launcher to work (sadly the games still dont work due to anticheat)
• GetDpiAwarenessContextForProcess patches added for GTA V Enhanced
• webview2 patches added from upstream wine, allows webview2 installer for Vermintide2 to complete instead of crashing out.
• Hid multi TLC and Fanatec wheel-bases hidraw white-list added -- thanks gotzi
