Steam desktop and Steam Deck get a fresh stable update

Quoting: poiuzWhat's the state of VK_EXT_graphics_pipeline_library on Steam Deck with Proton 8? Is it always enabled or must I manually add RADV_PERFTEST=gpl?

Check the Mesa version used by the Deck? It's been enabled by default starting with 23.1.0.

Wine 8.13 is out now with plenty of bug fixes
22 Jul 2023 at 12:25 pm UTC Likes: 3

Quoting: mrdeathjrThis wine version comes with Wow64 support in WineGStreamer (could affect cinematics), however once stay avalaible ubuntu packages add more info

:smile:

In this case I think it refers to the new experimental WoW64 mode. So no changes unless you build Wine with --enable-archs which isn't used by default yet, I think.

GE-Proton 8-7 released bringing back AMD FSR support (UPDATED)
21 Jul 2023 at 4:20 pm UTC Likes: 3

Quoting: drjomsSo they removed FSR before, or?

It needed rework for the move to Proton 8 and was disabled. From the previous release notes:

"FSR is currently disabled again. It needs a massive rebase and same as before I don't know if it's currently possible to rebase/port it over to the new proton 8 build."

Wine 8.12 brings more Wayland work and performance improvements
12 Jul 2023 at 5:17 pm UTC Likes: 5

Quoting: ShmerlHmm, seems it's enabled by default?

https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/blob/master/configure#L4420 [External Link]

It's not hooked up yet.

This is the missing bit needed for the waylanddrv driver to be loaded and used instead of winex11:
https://gitlab.collabora.com/alf/wine/-/commit/4db0008a36fd424cac274447d8b4517d8b8055aa [External Link]
It has yet to be merged in upstream Wine.

Applying that works. It's just that other interesting bits, like actually interacting with a Wayland window have yet to be merged!

Nintendo blocked Dolphin emulator release on Steam

Quoting: JordanPlayz158Edit: after reading their later responses, 100% a troll, intellectual property over human life, if they are serious... they might need to be incarcerated

I dunno. Sure their posts are swiftly written, but going back in time and exterminating ancient copyright violators actually seems like a modest proposal.
