Quoting: Arehandorowine setup_the_witcher_3.exe

Using Wine like that assumes that default Wine supports Vulkan. Many report that Ubuntu's version and some others too do not. So it's recommended to build Wine from source and use that custom one, which needs some additional environment setup like above. Same applies to running setup_dxvk.sh by the way.

I didn't know. Feel very lucky now that in my case was so easy. Thanks for the heads up though.

Quoting: Geppeto35Please can someone points to a clear text tutorial to install DXVK plus the witcher 3, or details here how to do that (in fact lost in winprefix and stuff like that). Thanks ^_^

Assuming you have wine64 installed and wine 3.5 installed:

WINEPREFIX="~/Path/to/your/directory" wine wineboot
export WINEPREFIX="~/Path/to/your/directory"

Download the 10 files for The Witcher 3 from GOG. And download the 64 bits files stored in https://haagch.frickel.club/files/dxvk/latest/ [External Link] for dxvk.

mkdir /path/for/dxvk

In that folder there should be the same structure/files that is on the ftp server above. That is "bin" and "lib64" within dxvk folder plus 2 files and a script in "bin" and two files on "lib64"

cd /your/dxvk/directory/bin
WINEPREFIX=/Path/to/your/wineprefix bash setup_dxvk.sh

See that completes successfully.

wine setup_the_witcher_3.exe

Wait for the installation to finish and off you go. I didn't have to do anything else and sorry for bad explanation, not much time at work for a better one xD

Cheers

I finally managed to install dxvk yesterday with The Witcher 3 :)

Firstly I must say, with Wine 3.5, it was much simpler than I was expecting. Only had to download the nightly files of dxvk and apply the script to the wineprefix I had created for the game.

Secondly, the game runs smoothly and nicely. I have everything on High, with some Ultra options enabled, and the experience it's wonderful. However, shadows seem a bit too dark and somehow I can't change the resolution from within the game -Which I guess is running at the native one to my desktop-

Lastly, I will have to give it a go with some other games to do more testing. Are the Arkham Asylum games DX11? Is it possible to setup vk9 and dxvk on the same prefix?

How does it feel to be a god?

Rather lonely since monotheism monopolised the heavens, to be honest...

Quoting: ArehandoroYeah, that work's although missing out on the story isn't a big let down :/

I'm also running on 390.42, will wait to 390.48 and see what happens.

390.48 does not change it for me
But it's only the 5 short "movie" cutscenes you miss out on with -skipmovies and someone was nice enough to put them on youtube it seems.

Cool thanks :_)

Quoting: ArehandoroA bit late maybe, but has someone tried the game now that the patch is official? I get a green screen at the beginning of the mission (cgi intro) and only hear music/voice and see subtitles. After the intro ends the game crashes and exits to the desktop. Have tried to find the logs for the game but strangely it's not where the devs say.

I have the same green cutscenes, the -skipmovies launch option did the trick for me. Not perfect but acceptable.

Yeah, that work's although missing out on the story isn't a big let down :/

Thanks everyone for the help :)
