Quoting: stormtuxFor me for the last Proton versions the performances and stability is always the same (even the looong launching times, sadly). About ACO I cant be of help because I am using a nvidia card.
I can confirm that the long launching time of the game is present on Windows 7 too.

I wonder how to run the Bigfish client via Proton.

A look at how Steam Play is doing, based on the ProtonDB reports from July

I can see that a lot of people here confuse WINEDB ratings with ProtonDB ratings and that is a mistake.

Proton environment options are not a bad thing. They are there for something: To make the game work.
According to Valve staff [External Link], if a game needs a PROTON environment option for to run properly, it can be considered for to be white listed anyway.
That is why when you report a game for to be whitelisted they ask you if you used runtime environments options ...
If a whitelisted game needs a Proton environment option for to work , it will be automatically enabled during the install process.

If you use PROTON 4.11-1 and you need to enable "PROTON_USE_D9VK=1 %command% for to run a game perfectly from beginning to end, you have a Proton Platinum game and you can report it.

Proton options are valid for to whitelist a game.
Game options like "-nointro" or "-dx9" are not valid for to whitelist a game.

Proton Gold is when you have to edit some game file or manually run winetricks for to install this or that library for to run the game without issues. PROTON GOLD games will never be whitelisted.

Remember that We are doing PROTON tests and that includes the use of PROTON environments options.

I see that most people here think that this about game tests on Linux via PROTON and that is a common error.

Believe it or not, We are not doing game tests...
PROTON DB reports and Valve github reports (and even reports made on this site) are not about games. They are about PROTON.

The question here is not "Can I play this game on Linux via PROTON?".
The right question is "Can this version of PROTON run this game? NO? Yes? How well? with or without environment options? which one?

PROTON 4.11-1 and D9Vk will give us a lot of new PROTON PLATINUM reports.

What have you been clicking on this weekend?

Batman Arkham Asylum on my Windows 7 machine with a second card for physx...
I wonder if someday that feature will be possible on Linux.

NVIDIA have three new Linux driver releases out today

Quoting: fnordianslipWhat's going on with the version numbering?

With my Ubuntu 16.04 box, I'm already on 418.56. How come 418.52.18 is newer?

My previous attempts to use a 430 series driver have resulted in an un-bootable system, requiring me to purge nvidia* and install the 418 series driver again.
I am in the same situation... Maybe they do this intentionally, for to force people to upgrade the Ubuntu distro..
By the way, everytime I try to upgrade, nothing happen.

Murdered Soul Suspect in DX11 still crash when entering the cemetery.



In DX9 mode, the game works perfect with d9vk... and with 60fps, unlike the dx11 mode that is capped at 30fps.
