Edit2: Updated for two follow-up releases:
- Hotfix: Apparently yesterdays build was missing the normal proton packaged Gecko and Mono (the file size was significantly smaller than usual). This build fixes that.
- This is a minor hotfix release that just syncs proton-wine and dxvk with upstream versions from today. A user complained they were seeing some odd CPU+GPU usage in 8-7 but was fine in today's proton-experimental. After testing with this build based on today's experimental they confirmed it was working here too.
New in both GE-Proton and Wine-GE-Proton:
- FSR IS BACK!!!
Huge shoutout/thank you to Ph42oN for completely rebasing, updating and combining all of the old FSR patches to make them compatible with Proton 8.
- Additionally a bug was fixed by Ph42oN with fullscreen not working properly when fsr is disabled which was present in proton 7
- proton-wine updated to latest git
In GE-Proton only:
- protonfix for Oceanhorn removed as it's no longer needed (thanks Iglu47)
- protonfixes added for Neptunia Re;Birth 1 & 2 (thanks NishiyamaPedro)
- dxvk updated to latest git
- vkd3d-proton updated to latest git
- dxvk-nvapi updated to latest git
- upstream build changes pulled in
Use this one with Steam:
https://github.com/GloriousEggroll/proton-ge-custom/releases/tag/GE-Proton8-9
Use this one without Steam:
https://github.com/GloriousEggroll/wine-ge-custom/releases/tag/GE-Proton8-12
GE-Proton (proton-ge-custom on github) depends on and is built for use only in Steam, alongside Valve's official Proton releases. When installed, it shows up in Steam's "compatibility tool" list.
Wine-GE-Proton (wine-ge-custom on github) is a custom version of Wine with some hand-picked patches from Proton's source code, built to run without Steam, either standalone or with game launchers like Lutris.
Yes, GloriousEggroll is terrible at naming. But he's doing a good job with functionality, so getting used to his confusing names is worthwhile if you have a need for this stuff. :)
It's
wine-ge-custom, notwine-ge-proton.wine-ge-customandproton-ge-custom.Tell GloriousEggroll. The text you're trying to correct was copied directly from the release page:
"Wine-GE-Proton8-11 Released"
Yeah, I guess he did call it that. The repo is named
wine-ge-custom, as is the AUR package.Indeed, as already noted in my comment explaining the difference between the two.
I think proton needs steam to work properly but wine proton has proton patches without steam dependency
