Valve puts up Proton 5.13-4 to get Cyberpunk 2077 working on Linux for AMD GPUs

Quoting: TriasSo, as I understand, we need Mesa 21.0-dev for it? Any easy way to get it? PPA or something?
You need Mesa master, yes. I.e. latest git dev branch. Some distros package Mesa master some have third party repos. You can also build it yourself.

Here is what I use on Debian testing to build it [External Link] for example. The intention is to use it without replacing system Mesa packages, with any needed game on demand.

Quoting: Avehicle7887I'm probably one of the few people not excited for this game. All thanks to those skins that require galaxy to activate (My Rewards items).

Otherwise I could forgive painfully playing this game on my 5500XT until I get rid of Nvidia in favor of the 6800XT.
There is Galaxy exclusive content in it? That's rather annoying and I don't plan to use Galaxy.

Looks like I'm also going to be testing it on 5700XT, until Sapphire Pulse 6800XT will be sold anywhere.

Quoting: TheRiddickThe game for me came in 3 downloads.

59GB initial download
9GB Patch 1
250GB patch 2

I wouldn't call it massive, not when COD 250GB download exist!
Well, I compare it to The Witcher 3. I don't have COD :)

Also, was that a typo? You wrote 250 GB patch...

Did anyone test GOG version in Wine + vkd3d-proton?

About Vulkan renderer - nothing stops them from adding it later. It's not a priority on release for them.

Quoting: BasianiProton, Steam Play?! GG :D
Pay $60 and you will got $10 product because no RTX, no DLSS, no perfect performance,
I think performance will be OK. I don't care about DLSS (I think it's an anti-feature in this case, I'd rather have lower resolution with better quality). Ray tracing isn't a big deal too, but it will eventually become usable. That's WIP now for both Mesa and vkd3d-proton.

I don't think it's the first time. Vulkan transform feedback was in Mesa a bit before Nvidia too if I remember correctly (which made The Witcher 3 playable in Wine+dxvk).
