I know, but I prefer the original edition.

Spore and all it's content is working flawlessly expect the internet game content.
The forest works but there is annoying mouse issue and closing the game causes crashing.
DOOM 2016 starts but keeps stopping in error: cannot find default.cfg

Actually I like this Proton, no need to do separate prefixes for Steam games on Lutris.
Next I'm gonna try Fallout 4 and so on.

Installer can't seem to finish the .NET dependency download/install. Game does not launch as result.

.NET install is not supported in Proton and Wine, you can not install games that need it, it's known issues.

That's what Winetricks is for! Maybe Valve will implement "Protontricks".

I installed Tropic 4 earlier (since the updated Proton Beta) & the .NET install went through without problems & the game now works (for me at least).

We need a sticky post somewhere with clear & idiot proof instructions on how to use Winetricks with Proton, I've tried & screwed it up so badly I had to remove Proton & force steam to reinstall it.

Is there a faster way to add tests? This form doesn't save input and I have to retype my OS/hardware/etc for every game.

The Sims 3: worked!

Read on compability sheet that someone bypassing the launcher. I'm trying it and working well by Linux standard. Here's my notes posted there (probably tommorow they'll update the sheets).

Yes, bypassing the launcher as suggested here before works as intended. Game "gamma" are a bit dark, but not unplayable dark, probably due to Mesa driver problems or game problem. Just need adjusting monitor brightness and you good to go.

To bypass the launcher (refined for Linux newbie):
1. Open The Sims(TM) 3 "Bin" directory in Nautilus/File Manager (default is on /home/yourusername/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/The Sims 3/Game/Bin)
2. Find Sims3Launcher.exe and rename it to SimsLauncher.exe.old
3. Open "Bin" directory in Terminal and create a symlink to TS3.exe by typing either "ln -s TS3.exe Sims3Launcher.exe" or "ln -s Sims3Launcher.exe TS3.exe"
4. You're good to go. Enjoy!

Another set of games i was able to run:

• Borderlands

[Video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJVSvfoudBk)

Game runs out of the box. I didn't have any issue.

• Dishonored

[Video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3r4cBgx8Bzw)

Also runs out of the box without any issue.

• Mass Effect

[Video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zH3-s7idvuw)

This one needs a quick fix for audio but other than that no issues. Refer to [here](https://www.youtube.com/redirect?q=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2FValveSoftware%2FProton%2Fissues%2F177&v=zH3-s7idvuw&redir_token=1FMYbvQF3J8GEnIIBaaPO9CusYd8MTUzNjA1MDI0N0AxNTM1OTYzODQ3&event=video_description) for the fix.

• Mass Effect 2

This one did not need sound fix and worked out of the box for me.

UPDATE: Here's the picture...

1. Prove


2. Shocking FPS... IDK if this game is running on Vulkan or not. Never drops 30 fps at default graphics setting which max setting.


So, that's concluded my update on The Sims 3 for now. Any weird bug occurs, I will tell it here. Enjoy Steam Play my fellow Linux gamers...

Steam play is fantastic, indeed. It removes most annoying part of Wine gaming with Steam - creation of new prefix for new game, as wine used in previous prefix was incompatible with the game you want to run now. However there is a long road in front of Valve to make it golden.

First game I tried was *Original War*. It's a game I love from mu childhood and it run perfectly. So far I've managed to finish 2 missions, but I am going to beat whole US campaign.

Second game was GTA IV. It didn't run. I couldn't find proton logs (now I know there is a var I can set to specify logs location) but the game just didn't start.

Unfortunately I tried 2 other R* titles - L.A. Noire and Max Payne 3. Same result.

Bioshock, Bioshock 2 - same result.

Also same result with Bathman Arkham Asylum and Arkham City. Arkham Origins started and I was in play mode, however my GT540m didn't manage to offer smooth game experience.

I've tried DIRT 3: Complete Edition. This is a game I've finished on Wine 1.7.43 with dualshock 4. Unfortunately on Proton 4 times it didn't start. On 5th try it started, but experience wasn't smooth.

Then I run Mortal Kombat Komplete Edition. Auto setup froze, so I've modified ini file. I entered the game, it worked but it wasn't smooth, even on lowest resolution (it was smooth on Windows).

Last game - Deus Ex Human Revolution (basic, not director's cut). Game started, a lot of stuttering, that info about regedit didn't solve it. What's more it was unplayable, as I wasn't able to move mouse and press a key on keyboard at the same time.

My rig: i5 2410m, 10GB RAM, gt540m, Ubuntu 17.10.

I aim to update my rig, however for now it looks like people with cards, that do not support Vulkan won't be able to enjoy a lot of Proton.

Anyway, Steam play is a very good step forward from Valve. Can't wait a day, when Valve officialy supports on Linux:
- Witcher 3,
- GTA V,
- Fallout 4,
- Street Fighter V,
- Tekken 7.

And what is important - it looks like it's more like weeks / months than years. Steam play is not there for typical gamer, but I believe it will be there in 2019.

I know. I also know, that Witcher 3 and GTA V are already working very well for many people, which means that Valve is getting there.

Good work!
I'm gonna try the same game, but with a modest i3 4160 and a GTX 750ti

I tried Fallout 4..

It loads.. 

But it has problems with the mouse and the sound..


It seems there is a workaround for the sound problem with setting xaudio2_7 (native,builtin)

Update!

It is necessary to edit the file user.reg that is inside compatdata/377160/pfx/ and add the entry "xaudio2_7"="native,builtin" inside [Software\\Wine\\DllOverrides]

This is the part inside user.reg where You have to look:
[Software\\Wine\\DllOverrides] 1535035836
#time=1d43af0a6778600
"api-ms-win-crt-conio-l1-1-0"="native,builtin"

Besides the mouse problem, The game has SOLID FRAME RATE on the PC of my GOL profile

Flight Sim World crashes with "No D3D11 device". Any help with that? Anyone knows if P3D works?

I tried with The Darkness 2 and Warhammer 40.000 space Marine and both didn't load.

I need to solve the mouse problem in Fallout 4...

I tried Dishonored 2 DEMO...

It run, but with bad performance...maybe there is a trick for to improve it.


Quoting: Comandante ÑoñardoI tried with The Darkness 2 and Warhammer 40.000 space Marine and both didn't load.

The Darkness 2 will be a sticky wicket to fix for Valve. It uses their own CEG DRM so they would have to add support for it to the Linux Steam client. Notice that almost every Proton bug have been tagged, but no Valve employee have dared touch that particular issue with a ten foot pole:
https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/753

Some more games i was able to run:

• BioShock Remastered

[Video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=32rGaieKF_k)

I needed to add " PROTON_NO_ESYNC=1 %command% " launch option to fix blurry textures an stuttering. Other than that no issues so far.

• FlatOut

[Video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZW_IV-rVY6Q)

Runs out of the box. No issues.

• FlatOut 2

[Video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sjz3Wlou2ls)

Also runs out of the box without any issues. Highly recommend FlatOut games, they are really fun and impressive when you consider their age.
