As is tradition, a recent GE-Proton update had some issues so a hotfix version has released to fix up Windows games on Linux / SteamOS and Steam Deck.
Be sure to see my explainer on the different Proton versions and my guide to install GE-Proton to get started with it. Usually, you don't need GE-Proton unless it has some specific fix not available in Valve's official Proton.
GE-Proton 10-12 contains these fixes:
- Fixed video playback in Ghostwire Tokyo.
- Fixed video playback in Castlevania Dominus Collection.
- Possibly other games fixed that use webm/vp8/vp9 video.
Which is on top of the changes from the recent GE-Proton 10-11 from only 2 days ago:
