GE-Proton 10-31 is another fresh released of the compatibility layer to run more games on Linux / SteamOS, with more game fixes available.
Be sure to check out the GamingOnLinux explainer on the different Proton versions and the GamingOnLinux guide to install GE-Proton to get started with it. You generally only need GE-Proton for very specific games as it's best to stick with Valve's official Proton for direct support, or for use outside of Steam like with the Heroic Games Launcher.
From the full changelog:
HOTFIX:
- reverted/disabled winewayland systray icon patch introduced in 10-30 (it caused a lot of breakage in multiple games, as well as breaking in gamescope session on steam deck. no bueno.)
- fixed video playback regression introduced in 10-29 (fixes video playback in Nioh 3 and a few other games)
- fixed Warhammer 40k Darktide crashing on opening (issue introduced in 10-29)
Fixes:
- fixed Arknights Endfield anti-cheat triggering if wayland wasn't enabled
- fixed Duet Night Abyss launch crash & login window not showing on new install
- fixed Akiba's trip cutscenes + audio + voice audio (game fully works now)
- fixed Warhammer 40k Vermintide 2 EAC failing file validation when running the game from the launcher (holy butts 6+ year old bug)
- added protonfix for Warhammer 40k Darktide to skip the launcher -- this prevents a bug where sometimes the game would launch as an audio-only background process when run from the launcher.
