Quoting: EikeCan you please elaborate on how far is it? (with some - at least generic - examples...)Quoting: ChronariusYou can remove Visual Studio from that list!Visual Studio Code is very far from Visual Studio.

Hmmm - no matter what try, what I set where, the DXVK_HUD is nowhere to be seen :(
Did anybody make it work?

Quoting: michaldybczakAlso, I'm not sure if people remember that Vulkan currently doesn't work with Bumblebee. If a game is DX11 or DX12 it won't work on Bumblebee with Steam's proton. One must use nvidia-xrun for Vulkan to be working on Optimus laptops (with hybrid nvidia graphics).Just a technical note: It is possible, of course, to run on "stock" standard nVidia drivers on Optimus-equipped laptops, it will just result in not having the Optimus capabilities (i.e. on-the-fly graphics card switching)

Anyway, I already made around 6 reports into the sheet itself, so I guess I will work on it more during the weekend; now I'm more like enjoying the ride :D

Quoting: MayeulCUmmm, nope, not yet :) I'm playing/testing the game for now (and a bunch of others); but I will report it at a later time. I guess I want to re-install it later on, and test the behavior under more "deterministic" conditions (right now I have to admit I'm not even sure how I made it work; I tried around 5 things in parallel :) ).Quoting: BoldosHum, since you didn't tell before I asked, have you reported your findings on Valve's Proton Github? DOOM is supposed to be supported :DQuoting: musojon74I'm liking this. There appears to be a common problem with sound. I can't get all the sound on mass effect 1 other than the intro swoosh sounds. Skyrim works lovely other than the standard freeze on quit which we are used too. No mans sky works great. Interestingly when I switch to 4k resolution on Ubuntu then run it I get a black screen with sound. Anyone getting sound but no video try out 1080p. Exciting. I deleted the wine install. If it keeps working well the windows partition is on borrowed time.I have to confirm, that running some of the games on 4K is problematic...
...that is why it feels like I'm almost the only guy on the planet, for whom Doom is not working out of the box... (and yes, before you ask - I have a pretty standard config of Ubuntu 18.04 with GTX 1060 on 396.51). But after several tries/fights I won and I can shoot the whole Mars hell into oblivion.
Crysis is also reported to run ok, but on my 4K it is again a nogo..

Nevertheless, it has a bit limited functionality, like you do not see line numbering, no possibility to filter by game name or game's Status. Hence I chose to use the more complicated version :)

Quoting: tuubiYep, that is very correct.Quoting: BoldosJust to refresh the info:This generated view [External Link] loads a lot faster and it's cleaner without the useless editor bits. It seems to update every 5 minutes so it's live enough.
THIS is the "live" version of the tracking document, and it has grown 1,5 times from yesterday (to roughly 2600 test entries as of this morning; so pretty impressive so far):
