DXVK for Vulkan-based D3D11 in Wine version 0.61 is out with improved performance

Unfortunately it seems that wine 3.10 broke it, at least I had no luck running it since then. I'd appreciate if someone else who owns the game could test that.
Yesterday I tested ELEX with wine 3.11 + DXVK from git + Radeon drivers from Padoka PPA and all worked fine, however I had 53 FPS on Ubuntu vs 75 FPS on Windows with the same settings. Performance lost in The Witcher 3 is smaller.

Surviving Mars already has a fix out for the Linux text problem, plus more thoughts

This game is really amazing! I already bought two copies, for myself and the second for my wife (she also use Linux for play a games, except for The Witcher 3). It works really good on Linux.

Quoting: nadrolinuxThanks for information.

I tried to play Risen 3 Enhanced Edition, thats why I choosed 64 bit wineprefix.

It looks like a standard version of Risen 3 works good, however EE not.

Yeah enhanced edition is DX11 and 64bit but last time try this game dont run

However for this title type (DX11 - 64bit) staging is highly recommended

^_^
Thanks a lot. I thought that EE is still DX9.

Quoting: nadrolinuxGlad to hear that info :) Do you use 32 or 64 bit wineprefix?

Did you installed additional libraries like d3dx9 etc?

Yes, my hardware and software differ a lot.

I have Radeon RX580 (mesa-git) and Ubuntu 17.10, however I think that a problem is related to wine configuration.

I use 64 bit wineprefix without additional libraries.

Hi

I can test risen 3 with wine 3.0-rc6 and still works

Respect prefix my main prefix is 32bit only (I use risen 3 standard DX9), i have another for 64bit apps but this game is 32bit (enhanced edition is different)

Risen 3 still doesn't work in this Wine version.

Total War: ROME II - Emperor Edition is again showing signs of possible Linux support
5 December 2017 at 11:04 pm UTC

If it will show up on Linux I'll buy a second copy of this game directly from a porting company (probably Feral) store. IMO this is the best game from a Total War series.

VP's ARMA 3 1.76 beta now out, compatible with Windows for now

Great info! It's time to buy Laws of War!

Arma 3 1.76 for Linux is planned, work on it to start "soon"
20 September 2017 at 3:25 pm UTC

Great! Maybe we will see Vulkan support in some next release too, however it's much more important to me to have the same version as on Windows, because it will allow us to play with Windows gamers.

Arma 3 for Linux updated to 1.70, it’s now 64bit and solves the texture issue I had

Great info, especially that in the last time I play often in ARMA3 with my brother (COOP).
