Anyone got GTA 5, Fallout 4 and TES:S SE working?

Hitman: Absolution hangs when I try to do a benchmark.

Fallout 4 freezes after launcher, only black screen.

Anyone got GTA 5 running with this?
I can only log in the Social club and the game won't start.
Hopefully this game starts with this Wine.

I have tried with Wine-Staging 2.7. Launcher starts, it logs me in the Social Club and then gives me error message and I can't start it.

I'm waiting here Wine-Staging 2.8 when it arrives in Manjaro repos.
I tried to install wine-gaming-nine 2.8 but it gave me error about incorrect package.

Game works fine with the maximum settings.
I hope that they make native support for DS4-controllers.

NICE!

I have to start game all over because I have no idea what I'm doing now.
Is Vulkan only update for Linux users?

And I hope that Deus Ex will get Vulkan support as well.

Wine-Staging 2.3 released, has some minor CSMT improvements
9 Mar 2017 at 7:30 am UTC

There is no more black scenarios in Hitman:absolution even with the tesselation enabled. But the performance is still poor and for the first time the FPS is 20 average.

Some games like Crysis 2 and Sniper Elite V2 needs some fixes:
Crysis 2 runs but performance is not acceptable and some textures and walls are missing.
Sniper Elite V2 runs but everything is too dark.

One and only dx11 game "Mr.President!"works like a charm with Good-preset.

Wine-Staging 2.1 release with CSMT support for DirectX 10 & 11

Quoting: Ottopower
Quoting: PlutonMasterI have problems with Unity3d games, like My Summer Car and Mr.President!:
Both these starts and launches but I cant move with the keyboard.
Same problem with Blackguards, it seems an initial lack of keyboard focus but returning to desktop with Alt-Tab and again to return in the game restore the keyboard.
I realized that virtual desktop causes this problem too. After disabling it Unity3d games worked fine.

I tested today with wine-gaming-nine and CSMT enbled with these games:
Hitman: Absolution: Game FPS is a little bit improved and I still get black scenes with Tesselation / Ultra settings enabled, FPS is now over 15 in the benchmarks.

Crysis 2(DX11): Menu is no more messed up with CSMT enabled, still getting black scenes and FPS is a little bit improved.

Stranded Deep(DX11 mode): Game starts with DX11 mode, FPS is low as Wine 2.0 release.

Max Payne 3(DX11, Tesselation off): Game works, low FPS and the sound is totally terrible.

I can't launch next games:
Skyrim Special Edition
Grand Theft Auto V(Stuck in the launcher, gives me error, cannot use safe mode)
Carmageddon: Max Damage (Splash screen, nothing else)
