wine VS protonfixes

Much like it did before this commit.

Both Proton and Wine are open-source, there's not much to be gained by trapping any possible development to only folks working at Valve when there are thousands would happily help for free, on top of those Valve already pays.

Valve doesn't use upstream Wine. They use their own fork: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/wine

The 'No GPU Found' error is caused by https://github.com/ValveSoftware/wine/commit/51ce414a1f41fcaa415c4d3b4edd6b96ba711a35

Here is a github issue that describe it better https://github.com/ValveSoftware/wine/issues/177

Looks like Proton Experimental just fixed it. https://github.com/ValveSoftware/wine/commit/ae2fad7338cc2f914536469656448ecb5fdcf294

I'm pretty sure Eggroll is reffering to this Gnome 43 specific ALT+TAB fix which was merged in Proton Experimental last week: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/wine/pull/169

A solution is in progress. Give it a few weeks, or build Proton yourself. https://github.com/ValveSoftware/wine/issues/172

Then, if you managed to attach gdb, source this script and run lsf. After that let the game continue until you hit the crash and you should be able to get a backtrace with symbols (don't forget to use a radv build with debug symbols left in.

Have you tried to: * update ProtonGE (I use version 7-49 but I see 7-50 was released yesterday) * remove the file /home/deck/.local/share/Steam/compatibilitytools.d/GE-Proton7-49/protonfixes/gamefixes/1097150.py (source here)

"wmp9_ge" and "klite" custom winetricks verbs, you can download them from here

Fixes should land in GE-Proton7-34: https://github.com/GloriousEggroll/protonfixes/pull/94

^ And Proton-GE, if you use it, will automatically fetch packages it knows that you need. This isn't all that common though.

I suppose save game detection and folder merging could be done on a per-game basis with something like protonfixes.

It has a script with known fixes for each game e.g persona 4 script is here

There are kinda two levels of "game fixes". There are out-of-tree patches to Wine that were made to fix specific games but are not yet sufficiently tested or might present some other problems that prevent them from being included in upstream Wine yet. These are included in wine-ge, yes. Then there are "protonfixes", these are specific to Steam. They are Python scripts that run before the game is started to install dependencies or make other changes to the prefix that are required to run that specific game. Since they use Steam codes to reference the games, they can't work outside of Steam, so these are not in wine-ge. If you use Lutris to install games, then Lutris has install scripts that can do the same job, so it generally cover for it.
