Quoting: SpykerI'm always amazed to see how many game devs are still ignoring SDL2 and are re-inventing the wheel when they have to deal with Linux... No wonder why they struggle to support our platform.

With so many platforms to support, it boggles the mind why these big professional studios still don't build using cross platform solutions. You even get libraries that can abstract out store specific gumpf like achievements.

Quoting: rustybroomhandleRemember, for now you have to actually set VKD3D_CONFIG=dxr for it to work.

I would love to know how exactly one grabs this version of Proton. Otherwise, how long does one think the wait might be?

You don't need a whole new Proton, just an updated vkd3d-proton, which you can get from https://github.com/HansKristian-Work/vkd3d-proton [External Link] and following the instructions on how to compile it.

I have also found that the install script does not seem to work right, so I have just been copying the dx12.dll to the place where the game exe lives.

If you want to wait. I don't think it'll be too long before this makes its way into Proton Experimental even though the implementation is very bare bones. So far I have only gotten it to work with Control.

There's something really fishy about that story.

Quoting: edenistI really wish valve would release a steam-link program for linux. Not full blown steam, just a client that I can run on a lite-laptop that will stream from my big box.

I'm confused, isn't this what Steam Link is?

Solike. I bought a property many years ago. It was huge, and had aviaries and koi ponds in the back yard. It was cheap because it was a dodgy area.

Anyway, the koi ponds were empty, except for one lone solitary fish. Wife and I named him Napoleon and decided to set him free among his own people. The only place we knew of that had koi was the public park in the city which was 2 hours drive away.

So we scooped Napoleon into a pot and drove him all the way there. The moment after I dropped him into the water, a security guard was like, "Hey! What are you doing!!!??" So I just pretended to take some litter out of the water. He did not ask about the pot.

It was hilarious, but um, I guess you had to have been there.

Koi story over, thanks bye.

This is a weird one. I might be talking out my ass here, but DMCA is for copyright, and as far as I know, reverse engineered efforts like this usually do not use any of the original code and you still need to buy the original game for the assets. So it does not violate any copyright.

Remember when Microsoft tried to legally poopoo* the Samba project, but then later agreed to help them by providing spec docs?

* not a legal term

vkd3d-proton 2.2 also coming very soon, with Cyberpunk GPU hang fixes (maybe, more testing required)

EDIT: it has been released
