The uplay client works for me in regular wine. I'm just lucky. I guess. Thus far cry 3 & 4 work
very well for me. The ubisoft titles are all on sale at steam. The lowest price is at
green man gaming.

¬¬ I just discovered that is possible to override xaudio2_7 from the launch option
WINEDLLOVERRIDES="xaudio2_7=n,b" %command%

I have to try it by myself.
With this, a lot of games will work out of the box with platinum rating.

Someone on ProtonDB posted a [really nice guide](https://pastebin.com/raw/2Y2bVuRi) to get GTA IV running.

It's nice to finally be able to play my Steam version of the game (before, only the pirated version would run via Wine for me).

[Earthfall](https://store.steampowered.com/app/415590/Earthfall/) can be played for FREE this weekend and it has [Platinum ratings](https://www.protondb.com/app/415590).

I don't know You, but I'm gonna try it.

I tried Darksiders Warmastered Edition. It works out of the box, but the cinematics are not played...
and pasting the mfplat.dll file on the game's directory didn't worked. (I got the file from my windows7 machine)..
the trick specified on [WINEHQ](https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=36588) doesn't say if You have to use the version located at System32 or the one located at SysWOW64

You have to use wined3d11 or the main character is invisible.

Or use a graphics driver that supports transform feedback (on Nvidia that would be 396.54.09).

Hitman 2 seems to be running fine, didn't buy it but you can get the prologue for free and even play the episodes from Hitman 2016 if you own that. Not interesting for that purpose of course, but hey, it works.

[Earthfall](https://store.steampowered.com/app/415590/Earthfall/) works OUT OF THE BOX!!

First: I suggest to add WINEDLLOVERRIDES="xaudio2_7=n,b" %command% in the game's launch options for to avoid the potential very well known sound issue...

I played only in single player mode the two first chapters...I died A LOT.
Earthfall is the true spiritual successor of Left4Dead, and (for Me) is even better than Killing floor...

To call this game plagiarism or imitation is unfair, because indeed this has a better playability than Left4Dead....
I mean, You can even print your own weapons!! And You can install barricades!!!... and automated machine gun turrets!!!
This game has the improvements I always wanted to see in Left4Dead and KillingFloor.

If you gonna play solo, don't worry, You are not alone like in KillingFloor, You have your 3 bots friends like in Left4Dead.

I had solid 60 FPS most of the time with the graphics preset on HIGH, but I had frame drops when A LOT of enemies were attacking me... It seems this game very cpu demanding.

I had only ONE crash in 6 hours of game play, but I can't tell if it was a Proton issue or a game issue, because I had the same crash, several times, with Killing Floor 2 on a Windows 7 machine.

Hi guys,

I don't know if this is the right place to request some input but here it goes. I bought Frostpunk (id 323190) a couple of months ago and I'm struggling to get it to work with Proton. I submitted my original issue to Proton's github repo:

https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/412#issuecomment-421671114

I updated my system in the meantime so I'm now on 4.19.2-arch1-1-ARCH with Proton 3.16-4 Beta, but still no dice. The nvidia driver version is 410.73. I've tried different launch options like the ones described here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=227149

Or removing some legacy libraries as described here:

https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/3820#issuecomment-150706996

https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1417306#p1417306

Or even installing .NET as described here:

https://www.reddit.com/r/wine_gaming/comments/8r6low/guide_how_to_install_net_45_on_64bit_prefixes/

https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/18

https://github.com/Winetricks/winetricks/issues/917

Also tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Just wondering if anyone here encountered the same issues and found a feasible workaround. The suggestion on that github issue to remove autosaves didn't do it either.

Thanks

Aaaand... I created another [Steam account](https://steamcommunity.com/id/CaS-BiGIS-ProtonicEdition) related with this.
Now I have to add funds and start to buy games that fits with the criteria.

I would like to see Dishonored 2 and Middle Earth: Shadow of War testings with 3.16-4

All tests available at ProtonDB were made with old versions of Proton. Maybe the new version works.

So much time without Steamplay news, I'm like an addict without his drug.

As You must know, Shadow of the tomb Raider now has a TRIAL version...
I downloaded it and it works out of the box...
And, like the previous games, it has a Benchmark.






I hope the new Nvidia driver improve performance

Denuvo was removed from [Dishonored 2](https://store.steampowered.com/app/403640) and [Dishonored: Death of the Outsider](https://store.steampowered.com/app/614570)

I suppose that is a greenlight for to have the entire franchise running on Linux via Proton.

The crash should be fixed in dxvk-master. It only works with the proprietary AMD vulkan driver though, the reason is a broken compute shader that relies on undefined behaviour (gj Capcom!).

Stories: The Path of Destinies works, but crashes on exit with DXVK: https://www.dropbox.com/s/hg6ozwszwrfi1sf/stories-crash.png?dl=0

Also there's a slight graphics glitch that I was unable to resolve - the flat grey textured blocks around the platform are supposed to be a dust/smoke like effect: https://www.dropbox.com/s/zgpogrma6gqsaeb/stories-glitch.png?dl=0 (although it doesn't seem to be a DXVK specific issue as it happens with WineD3D too)

Using Proton 3.16-6 with PROTON_FORCE_LARGE_ADDRESS_AWARE=1 PROTON_NO_ESYNC=1 %command% -dx9I was able to play the first two levels of Bioshock 2 in a row without any crash.

Using previous versions of Proton I had crashes in the middle of a level.

I waited for a long time to play a Dragon Ball game on my Linux computer.
Yesterday Dragon Ball Xenoverse was at only 9 € on Steam. I looked [on Protondb, the game has Platinum label](https://www.protondb.com/app/323470).
I installed it and launch it: works very well without any bug or needed tweaks. I can play with my Steam controller.
So pleasant!

Kingdom Reckoning on Steam with SteamPlay: just install it and play this great RPG on Linux!

[Murdered: Soul Suspect](https://store.steampowered.com/app/233290) WORKS out of the box with PROTON 3.16-6, but it crash at the beginning of the cemetery cinematics...
The crash can be solved if this
-DX9
is in the game launch options...

I also observed that, when the game is in DX9 mode, the frame rate is no longer capped at 30FPS when VSYNC is enabled...
But, there are minor graphic glitches in DX9 mode...I guess is because the api is not properly supported by PROTON.

Quoting: Comandante Ñoñardo[Murdered: Soul Suspect](https://store.steampowered.com/app/233290) WORKS out of the box with PROTON 3.16-6...

Very interesting game, I never heard of it until now. Just added it in my wish list.
