FYI: This break and fix also applies to the Arc Raiders playtest currently happening.
Pretty wild that they had a one day turnaround on the fix.
TIL I had no idea you could untick compatibility and some games would auto-run with a Valve selected Proton version
There’s a base default, for games that don’t have a valve default. Devs can also set a default themselves IIRC which is essentially the same as a valve default for the purposes of this conversation. The original implementation did not automatically allow all games without a valve default to be run, something that there’s still a setting for which is now default on. The override option overrides either the valve default if there is one or the base default if both the option to allow games without valve defaults is on and there is no valve default.
So if you override a game that does have a valve default and then remove the override, it’ll use the valve default whatever that happens to be at the time.
Very epic, I had to switch to my windows partition to play it yesterday
Edit: just tried it out, somethings still wrong, I was getting like 30fps max
Despite such stories are a regular occurrence, there’s still a loud part of the user base proclaiming that Proton is better than native Steam Linux Runtime V3 game ports.
“I created loud people in my head, so therefore it is true.”
