Edit2: Updated for two follow-up releases:

  • Hotfix: Apparently yesterdays build was missing the normal proton packaged Gecko and Mono (the file size was significantly smaller than usual). This build fixes that.
  • This is a minor hotfix release that just syncs proton-wine and dxvk with upstream versions from today. A user complained they were seeing some odd CPU+GPU usage in 8-7 but was fine in today’s proton-experimental. After testing with this build based on today’s experimental they confirmed it was working here too.

New in both GE-Proton and Wine-GE-Proton:

  • FSR IS BACK!!! Huge shoutout/thank you to Ph42oN for completely rebasing, updating and combining all of the old FSR patches to make them compatible with Proton 8.
  • Additionally a bug was fixed by Ph42oN with fullscreen not working properly when fsr is disabled which was present in proton 7
  • proton-wine updated to latest git

In GE-Proton only:

  • protonfix for Oceanhorn removed as it’s no longer needed (thanks Iglu47)
  • protonfixes added for Neptunia Re;Birth 1 & 2 (thanks NishiyamaPedro)
  • dxvk updated to latest git
  • vkd3d-proton updated to latest git
  • dxvk-nvapi updated to latest git
  • upstream build changes pulled in

    GE-Proton (proton-ge-custom on github) depends on and is built for use only in Steam, alongside Valve’s official Proton releases. When installed, it shows up in Steam’s “compatibility tool” list.

    Wine-GE-Proton (wine-ge-custom on github) is a custom version of Wine with some hand-picked patches from Proton’s source code, built to run without Steam, either standalone or with game launchers like Lutris.

    Yes, GloriousEggroll is terrible at naming. But he’s doing a good job with functionality, so getting used to his confusing names is worthwhile if you have a need for this stuff. :)

        It’s wine-ge-custom, not wine-ge-proton.

        Tell GloriousEggroll. The text you’re trying to correct was copied directly from the release page:

        “Wine-GE-Proton8-11 Released”

            The repo is named wine-ge-custom

            Indeed, as already noted in my comment explaining the difference between the two.
