OpenGL in Source-based games wasn't native too - these games use ToGL layer, which translates Direct3D calls to OpenGL calls. DXVK Native isn't any different in that way - it translates D3D to Vulkan at compile time similarly to ToGL.

Then that makes heck of a lot more sense to me, thanks for clearing that up!

Edit: Had to install EP2 because I got curious, but wow is the current beta stuttery on my machine! I can't even play the game like this. After the first boot of the beta, it doesn't even render the game, just completely black with sound. Steam overlay works tho :P

Would really love to try GNOME on some of my devices, but I hate the top bar and want a traditional panel on the bottom.. It's what keeps me using KDE on 100% of my computers.
No, I do not consider tweaking/hacking the shell an option :P

So, does anyone know if this can be implemented in "vanilla" Wine as well, or is it only a Proton thing? I don't want to use Steam, and some of my games such as No Man's Sky does indeed support DLSS.
