d9vk VS steamtinkerlaunch

Use https://github.com/doitsujin/dxvk

It will be easier to understand if you show me an example of terminal commands under GNU/Linux. I tried to follow his instructions but I don't know one method is good

If you know the directory structure and where the versions of Proton live that Heroic uses, you can also go to the dxvk github page and select the 1.10.3 tar ball, download it and extract it, then manually move the appropriate files to their desired location in the Proton file structure. As with all things like this, .old is your friend if you stuff something up. And yes this does work, I compile my own vkd3d versions and use this approach as a lazy way to test them in Steam.

You can try dkvx Github dkvx , which is a mod that supposedly translates the DX11 stuff to Vulkan but I am not an IT guy so no clue how that works but as I said somewhere else on this thread it helped some people.

Worry not, if you want to play Windows games on Linux, you will use Wine, and Wine has codepaths for very old DirectX versions, it translates it to OpenGL. Alternatively if you really insist there is D8VK although it shouldn't be necessary. For DirectX games that use DirectX 9, 10, or 11 you are covered with DXVK which translates those APIs into Vulkan. And for DirectX 12 games you're back to Wine with WineD3D which will do translation to Vulkan. Technically WineD3D supports every DirectX version, but DirectX 9, 10, and 11 codepaths are half finished, buggy, and less performant, that's why DXVK exists.

You can give DXVK a try.

If you are going to download DXVK, you can download from GitHub.

No, it does not. Check the readme - https://github.com/doitsujin/dxvk DX12 goes through this - https://github.com/HansKristian-Work/vkd3d-proton

I haven't used it myself but steamtinkerlaunch is definitely your best bet. It lets you easily set up Mod Organizer 2 or Vortex directly on your Deck. The quite extensive wiki will provide more information than I possibly could.

For any problems, suggestions and contributions you might have, please use the issue tracker (which was the preferred way already before)

Tinker Launcher is the easiest way to do it. There is also a third party Linux "port" of MO2 you can install. Tinker Launcher is my preferred method. ProtonupQT is not where you get it from. https://github.com/frostworx/steamtinkerlaunch/wiki/Installation

Another app / set of scripts I have found is https://github.com/frostworx/steamtinkerlaunch.

https://github.com/frostworx/steamtinkerlaunch/tree/mo2-overhaul branch.

Yes you can use mods/mod managers with Steam Tinker Launcher
