Only works with Proton 4.2-9; it crashes with any newer Proton version.
I was not able to get the Vulkan renderer working. When I try to start it with that enabled, I get the following error message: "Vulkan requires very recent video drivers. [...]"
Horrendously low-res textures without tweaks, which was fixed after disabling both Esync and Fsync.
Minor stuttering when loading new areas.
Freezes on the loading screen before the intro videos with Proton 7.0 or 8.0.
I tried switching to Proton 6.3, but then UPlay hangs on "Looking for patches" and does not launch.
This game used to freeze on the loading screen, but now runs perfectly with Proton Experimental.
eval $( echo "%command%" | sed "s/2KLauncher\/LauncherPatcher.exe'.*/Base\/Binaries\/Win64Steam\/CivilizationVI'/" )
The Linux native version of this game is at an older patch version than the Windows version, so if you want to play together with friends on Windows, you have to run the Windows version under Proton.
Under recent Proton versions, this game has significant performance issues but only in multiplayer (singleplayer runs perfectly fine). To fix this, I switched to Proton 6.3-8, which is the latest version that does not exhibit this issue. However, the 2K launcher is broken with this Proton version so you need to change the command to directly run the game executable.
