The bottle for Wine 5.0 has officially been popped open as it's out now

Quoting: YoRHa-2BVKD3D currently does not support DXR. DLSS is proprietary technology that will most likely never work through wine.
Well to be fair all they need to do is support DXR which RTX plugs into, I don't know if DLSS could work but maybe the support flags can be unlocked to be used in the Linux driver.

The only missing component is DLSS support in the Linux driver which I hope NVIDIA brings along sometime, in saying that DXR (which RTX maps into) is more important, and I don't know if Linux driver has RTX features for Ray Tracing (assumed so?)

Still good games that hold up well today. I do wonder if Alex is using Source 3.0 engine (has that been announced yet)

One thing for sure, EPIC games has lit a fire under Valves arse by showing them that MAKING games and exclusive deals still matter. Motivated Valve to start making games again which is great news people! We may yet see a HL3 come to life!

YAY and hopefully Proton update will soon follow, 5.0 series of proton.

Also I'm wondering, how does Ray Tracing RTX features work under Wine? can people enable DLSS or RTX on games like Metro Exodus or is that still not possible until DX12/DXR is fully done?

I wish they enable the ability to change the font size of the games list window, my font is tiny at 4k and the hiDPI mode is hilariously large.

I'm talking about -dev UI editor mode, there is no font css option for the list.

More reasons for developers to support Linux is always good.

It still stings a little bit that CDPR didn't give Linux support for Witcher3 or CP2077 :(

It's either a tooth, or a half eaten apple in black and white of sorts.
