- Comment on Nintendo Switch 2 is already running custom graphics through exploit one day after launch 3 weeks ago:
That is one of the options, that apparently a lot of the 3rd party devs are using. So far, all 1st party Nintendo titles are announced to include the game on the cartridge (not just a key)
- Comment on Grand Theft Auto 4 for PS5, Xbox Series X/S reportedly in development, could release this year 1 month 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 1 month 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.
- Comment on I want to feel like a bad-ass wizard 7 months ago:
The Excellent YouTube channel TheStellarJay has a small series (3-4 Videos, ~10min each) about the state of wizard games.
