Valve has decided to work with AMD for making a fast lane way to get Steam Deck setup with windows. I suspect valve took a closer look at the EAC and BE situation and was like, HOLY F$%K we not going to fix this.. hope I'm wrong.

Zink is going to be great for keeping older games alive. Allows allot of workarounds you don't inject into OGL components directly (bit no no).,

Bit of a shame VR is having such a issue under Linux. Basically forces people to go back to windows for VR because allot of companies are only updating drivers and building software on windows and nothing else.

I'm going to be getting a decagear 1.0 end of year and they won't have software for Linux until a while so I'll be forced to boot back into windows for vr.

DX12 had like a full year head-start on vulkan. That's pretty big in the software development world. So naturally more games get DX12 initially, especially with XBOX to tie it in, and M$ money bags!

Vulkan does not give out money bags!

Just because EAC loads, doesn't mean it fetched and verified the EAC hash files correctly. Under WINE the automatically detected EAC URL uses wine64 and NOT win64.. this is where most of the compatibility breaks.

SQUAD has wine64 activated on the EAC servers so wine works.

I also think Mortal Online 2 has EAC disabled on login now thus giving illusion that EAC is working; but its disabled due to development alpha stage. Once it goes persistent that EAC toggle with turn on and it won't work no doubt!

Unfortunately the don't support games that don't support Linux argument has never worked, and in fact has wholly backfired on the Linux gaming community as developers get even colder towards Linux in general.

Is there not a website with a collection of Switch games as Demo versions? does the switch have demo games that people can play for free?

Look at the EAC log files generated in the prefix folder. If its downloading the wine64 eac files correctly or at least checking with wine64 files then it may be working.

Think I've been using this with xanmod kernel for a couple weeks now. Had a bumpy start but all seems to work now, I think.
