Strange, L.A.Noire works for Wine 3.14-->4.5, but not with Proton, even with Proton last version 4.2-3.

Quoting: LaudracThe major problem is still not fixed, just tested today by switching in SteamOS to desktop Modus then the issue does not exist mouse working perfect in the specific proton games. Back to bigpicture mode and the problem is back. I also tried to deactivate steam overlay, but the problem is still there so steam need to fix the bigpicture mode of SteamOS

I'm not sure we are talking about the same issue, I'm talking about this one:

Quoting: LaudracDid someone get the major mouse problem solved of SteamOS and proton? Mouse disappears and is only visible when clicking any button even the weel works?
Do you mean in overlay mode? There was an issue with Proton in overlay mode, the cursor was invisble, but it is recently fixed.

Quoting: edoWait does it means .net games works now?
Same question, what does that mean? .Net 3.5 installed without tweaks with this new Proton version?

Answer: you still need to set Proton to XP to install .NET 3.5, so I don't know what this change mean.

Quoting: Comandante ÑoñardoThe Murdered: Soul Suspect freeze in cutscene "entering cementery" is present on PROTON 4.2-1 too...
The game in DX9 mode doesn't crash, but there are a lot of graphic glitches, like missing textures.
If it crashes in dx11 but not dx9, you should open a bug report on DXVK github page.

Quoteright now it's also free to grab from Bethesda using the code "TES25TH-MORROWIND" until March 31st.

And you have to install the "Betheeda Launcher"...no thanks, I prefer to use the Gog version, without installer.
Uplay, Origin, Epic...to much games clients that are not Linux compatible.

Quoting: [email protected]Anyone managed to get Uplay working with Child of Light? Mine just goes into a zombie process and Uplay does not actually launch.

Uplay is now functionnal with Proton 4.2.
Delete the Child of Light proton game folder "compatdata/256290", launch the game and try disabling uPlay's game overlay in the general uPlay settings.
