- Comment on Grand Theft Auto 4 for PS5, Xbox Series X/S reportedly in development, could release this year 6 hours ago:
No, not Proton, but the dxvk stuff works on Windows too. You just need to replace some .dll files
- Comment on Grand Theft Auto 4 for PS5, Xbox Series X/S reportedly in development, could release this year 11 hours ago:
Well there is d9vk and dxvk which translates directX 9, 10 and 11 to Vulkan and vkd3d which translates direct3D (directX 12) to Vulkan. So it’s all Vulkan on the Linux side, Proton ‘just’ translates one of these into Vulkan or passes it through if the game is already Vulkan.
I don’t think there is a native (to GTA IV) Vulkan renderer in game though and therefore there isn’t anything more you can or have to do on Linux.
On Windows, some older games actually get performance improvements from the translation to Vulkan.

The Excellent YouTube channel TheStellarJay has a small series (3-4 Videos, ~10min each) about the state of wizard games.
