Quoting: StellaI hope all the AI generated slop was worth it for this.

Quoting: KlaasThank you AI. The prices – like the RPI ones – are horrible.

Quoting: CaldathrasSignificantly cheaper than buying the games separately.

Quoting: CaldathrasI have been using Proton-CachyOS on my Kepler laptop with DXVK-Sarek enabled. Yes, it has been great for some games. I can finally run a number of games in DXVK that used to default to WineD3D before.

Having that legacy support built in is great for older hardware, to be sure. Does it have some logic for choosing between DXVK and DXVK-Sarek, or do you have to set an environment variable or something?

PROTON_DXVK_SAREK=1

Quoting: PlayingOnLinuxphoneAs long as they don't improve the character physics/controls I don't care. Witcher 1 is still the only Witcher I could enjoy (and I know the controls were weird, but at least they worked).

Quoting: TarosAs a German I so hope it will be successful. The world needs to forget that Gollum even existed xD

Quoting: TuxeeSince I've been playing War Thunder in its native version for many years: Are there any benefits running the Proton version? (Even with all details cranked up to the max I constantly hover around 150 to 200fps on 2560x1600.)

Quoting: PhlebiacGlorious Eggroll hasn't had a fresh release in a while, but besides being "the latest bleeding edge" does anyone have any comments on whether this has been great for them on some/many games?

Quoting: Liam Squires-HandWell, maybe that renderer will see improvements for the release. They must be confident on it to remove DX11 😅

If it's really a wrapper, I don't see how that would work. the game would be inherently limited by the poor performance of their shortcut wrapper. Rebuilding the whole game to take advantage of DX12 from the beginning would be a solution. But that would take too much time.

But, we're human, and humans can be pretty stupid or just generally clumsy.

Thats a quite big assumption. Do you have any evidence? xD

Quoting: StellaSome people even say that they are using a D3D wrapper and that the D3D12 implementation is not native, which may explain the terrible performance loss.

Quoting: IronownerThis was my Tomb Raider 🥰

that will exclusively require DirectX 12

Booooo.

Quoting: KirkyLADHaving said that, forza support tell you that Steam Deck is supported but Linux isn't.
