Speculation: Dying Light 2 may come to Linux after all

I wonder if they're doing a Stadia build targeting Vulkan + Linux, if so it would make sense to release a native version on Steam as well. We can hope anyway =).
Dying Light is still seeing updates years after release and my love of it continues

Reading another article about DX12 and possibly supporting google Stadia, it makes me hopeful there will be a Vulkan port of DL2 and if not a native Linux version it should run quite well with Proton. Ive not tested any DX12 games in wine, but I'm hopeful that worst comes to the worst that performs well in Proton too.

I have had the odd niggling issues in the past with the development builds, but not for at least a year.. Atleast that I remember. If I ever do run into issues... Thats what the downgrade tool is for, I just revert back to an earlier working version.

Quoting: F.UltraI use Arch, there are mesa-git in the AUR that would allow me to compile it easily. But I prefer to use the unofficial mesa-git repo that is very well maintained.Quoting: lejimsterDo you compile yourself? I used to be on the Padoka unstable PPA but was burned for far too many times when his scripts released some binaries when others failed which lead to weeks without X on some occasions.Quoting: F.UltraThe inclusion of DXVK 1.1.1 is kind of a bummer since it requires VK_EXT_host_query_reset without plummeting performance in some games and that is not available in any of the stable versions of Mesa yet.I've decided to stay on mesa-git. For the most part it's been stable and while dxvk/d9vk etc are being developed it works best with them. Maybe when these projects mature and settle down stable will be a good option, but for right now..
For me Vampyr just took a nose dive performance wise when Steam updated Proton to 4.2-4 today.
One could have hoped that DXVK would have kept the old code path when it detects that the necessary extension is not found and then remove that code path altogether once it's been in mesa stable for some time but I guess that it was too cumbersome.

Quoting: KrovikanHello:
Seems all OK but I am worried by this note of Joshua:
"Please do not use wine's d3d9x or d3dcompiler with d9vk"
I need to do something more apart of the setup_dxvk install?
Thanks in advance.

Starcraft 2 works pretty well, but it has a few bugs still left to iron out. I need to open a bug report and do some traces, just haven't got around to it.

I understand them becoming epic store exclusive for future titles. But they surely can't remove rocket league from steam completely. This is anti consumer and frankly I'm completely sick of Epic and their bullsh*t. They aren't the studio I used to love. They've become a monstrosity.
DXVK 1.0.2 is out with some bug fixes, d9vk seems to be progressing nicely

Also to complicate things further codeweavers have their own implementation of Vulkan backend for wine in development. So many projects all trying to do the same thing, its a shame we can't focus our energy on the best solution.

It currently reads the values and spits out script you can apply manually. Although it doesn't work with Vega atm, I had to add my own overclock values to the script to get Vega overclocking work.
Times like this when I wish I had learned how to code, I would love to contribute to a project like this.

Quoting: CAPTNCAPSNow we just need any kind of tool for AMD cards...We do... With WattmanGTK [External Link], unfortunately the author has been busy and hasn't had time to get it fully working.
