@liamdawe

Going by the GitLab, it seems Wayland is only currently used when x11 fails. So it's enabled, but not the default go-to, likely as more Wayland work still needs to be done.
very well for put more complete information about in which situation wayland is enabled, less confusion for users

​This wine version in my case at simple seek work ok (dxvk-vulkan-zink)

Direct3D to Vulkan translation layer DXVK v2.5 released with rewritten memory management
12 Nov 2024 at 9:39 am UTC Likes: 9

​This dxvk version in my case seems more smooth in various heavy vram (around or more than 4gb) games and work with mesa 25-dev



















​adding other tests this time with some 32bit dx11/dx9 titles, appear some interesting results in my case:

f1 race stars have performance issues on singapore track when stay raining (fps fall to around 40fps) but stay at 60fps in same scenary and same situation





other case occur with farcry 3, in this game before dxvk 2.5 game run around 20fps and gpu dont pass around 15% of usage but now performance up to 60fps in my case and gpu usage up to around 50 to 55%





however in my case skyrim legendary stay in 30fps with 99% gpu usage

Quoting: Cr1ogenImproved Wayland support???? I was expecting full support by now! :cry:
Them stay working of this but is heavy wip for now howewer i think ntsync maybe stay ready (someplace of 2025) before wayland proper support

Back to wine in my case improve much in last years

Now stay testing some newer titles but in this case mouse input dont work correctly, curiously out of virtual desktop mouse input work in game















And others like this title need in my case a little fix using vulkan renderer for alan wake 2 (mostly vkd3d) but united with vkd3d 2.13

Respect steamdeck cpu is zen 2 too equal than my ryzen 4600g however steamdeck cpu stay to 3.5ghz and my cpu stay to 4.3ghz

back to patch 1.04 seems more smoother and my save game + and mods stay working









HZB is interesting option could give improvement when you have a weak gpu
