dxvk-native VS Dota-2-Vulkan

DXVK 2.0 has upstreamed the dxvk-native code, meaning the game runs using native Linux libraries but uses DX11 with DXVK. This is mostly done because the ancient OpenGL linux-native renderer was rather bad.

what works best is games supporting dxvk-native: https://github.com/Joshua-Ashton/dxvk-native

There is DXVK native which doesn't require wine.

There are also Dxvk native for porting game to Linux. Which is used by valve to port it's game to Linux.(replacing togl)

I disagree, but I get the frustration. It's just that I've been playing CS:GO for almost a decade, and while I think the game is neglected by Valve in general, it's way a worse scenario on Linux. For instance, Vulkan support (via dxvk-native) was added back in December last year, and it's not been updated ever since, so you get way worse stuttering when compared to OpenGL (which is actually a DirectX 9 to OpenGL translation layer, called toGL, which has its own set of bugs and issues); Plus, you can't change screen resolution when using Vulkan. I get some occasional little stutters on Windows as well, but the whole CS:GO experience is honestly just way worse on Linux, unfortunately.

DXVK-Native and the game Perimeter. Perimeter is the one game I know of that's opensource and that uses DXVK-Native. I got it to run, but there was no support for any audio, making this pretty unexciting. This is still being worked on upstream, so maybe a DXVK-native port later and a port of perimeter will happen then...

You never mentioned that requirement, but here you go: https://github.com/Joshua-Ashton/dxvk-native

DirectX isn't an option on linux/mac anyway, it's just launch or safe mode. (Note to any SCS developers if they're lurking around here... please implement the DX pipeline into the linux build so we can use DXVK-Native, it's much faster than OGL!)

Other than the CSGO issue, I think, for some placebo reason, gaming is better on gentoo. Maybe this is because since on gentoo you know what's in your system, you know what's wrong when something does go wrong? For example my personal experience is as follows: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Dota-2-Vulkan/issues/397

Yes, happened to me as well, Manjaro, it is mainly because of Vulkan API, you can read my detailed bug report on the GitHub issue Here

Turns out, it's actually a bug in Dota's Vulkan implementation: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Dota-2-Vulkan/issues/402

You can check my profile I made a post on this sub about vulkan. I also opened a GitHub issue on dota 2's vulkan page. I too have to use -gl. Also my computer is better than yours (4c/8th, 5.7gb ram), so the possibility that your PC can't play vulkan specifically just got lower! Anyway if you want vulkan fixed make sure to make yourself heard on the GitHub page (if that's not against the rules, that is)! Here it is : https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Dota-2-Vulkan/issues/397

I opened a github issue but haven't gotten any feedback yet.

I've also had issues with Vulkan randomly crashing with a segfault. I reported it ~6 months ago but doesn't look like anything's been done: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Dota-2-Vulkan/issues/382

Nope, Vulkan works great here for years (except long shader caching issue, but no crashes). Report it to https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Dota-2-Vulkan with proper info instead of vague angry posts.
