Valve puts up Proton 5.13-4 to get Cyberpunk 2077 working on Linux for AMD GPUs

Quoting: ShmerlNothing extra, straight download from GOG. It is weird that it's so huge while the game is 60 GB. May be it's languages like above.
I've read there was a 50gb patch, maybe you downloaded the game, they released the patch during download and you ended up needing to download another 50gb.

IMO vkd3d has a fair way to go when up against dxvk (dx11)

Quoting: Shmerlinstaller alone is 104 GB for me.
That is odd, not sure why its 104GB for you, pretty sure mines up to date, maybe what happened is you downloaded something extra?

The game for me came in 3 downloads.

59GB initial download
9GB Patch 1
250MB patch 2

I wouldn't call it massive, not when COD 250GB download exist!

I found vkd3d to be a poor experience in battlefield games, the framerate was all over the place while under DX11 (DXVK) it was solid 60fps or more.

Anyway playing the game under windows for a little while. Been updating all my drivers and bios, and oddly enough the bios update removed my Linux boot option?¿ no idea how that happened, guess I'll need to repair that.

Manjaro Linux 20.2 'Nibia' is out now

well 5.9.12 kernel is meant to work but I tested it and, it does not for my 6800XT card.

Once 5.10 final release is rolled out into distros as the standard kernel version, inc on install isos, then all should be smooth rolling from there on it.

Community lead and developed projects and apps that have been handed over to the community for maintenance are an entirely different kettle of fish. If a company came in and took that sort of project it would create a shitstorm, I can see maybe microsoft or apple doing that...

Unreal Engine 4.26 rolls out with lots of Linux improvements, drops OpenGL for Vulkan

Quoting: syxbitI have one. Just install Linux-mainline from AUR
Yeah I used a 5.10rc6 repo someone posted. But the point is the DE install media will crash, you need to do it all via Architect or built a install image yourself with 5.10 baked in.

Basically adds layers of complexity to installing Linux which MOST casual desktop users would have no idea about whats going on, too me a couple tries to understand the interface options.

I ended up deleting windows10 install in the process (oops), I'll slap that back on later down the line for VR/CP77 stuff.
