This is Perfect!! I hope also Big Game Devs will use it to port GTA V, Heroes VI to Linux :)

This is something that Rocket League is using on Linux but with OpenGL.

This is even better than Proton, Wine etc.

- Do not freeze during remote play.
- Be able to restart server remotely.

Proton is great, but I'd prefer more source clones, or Vulkan ports to Linux.

Vulkan ports became less frequent because of Proton.

D9VK for translating D3D9 to Vulkan for Wine has another new version out, 0.13f - "Hypnofrog"

I don't want these converting projects, just all Stadia games ported to Linux Desktop.
