Game runs well without issues
I had no issues, performance was ok, especially given the hardware and settings.
Game works, but only with free included modules. Paid DLCs/Modules are not working. ~2-7 FPS on my Laptop. Lots of tinkering required
WINEDLLOVERRIDES=wbemprox=n %command%
install DX11 dll's and add winhttp as override library using the following manual by Eagle Dynamics themselves: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/support/faq/SteamDeck/ Also applicable to Linux PC beside SteamDeck
Steam Authorization Error 500, prevents using any Paid Modules you install. only the two Included Planes (low-fidelty SU-25T and TF-51) will work.
Even with a substantial amount of tinkering, the game works, but all Paid DLCs/Modules that I installed wouldn't work due to "Steam Authorization Error 500". This resulted in me only being able to test the free and included low fidelity Su-25T and TF-51.
In Order to get it running at all, follow the following Guide on Eagle Dynamic's page: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/support/faq/SteamDeck/ It's also applicable for Linux PCs (I don't have a SteamDeck^^), just skip the SteamDeck specific screen size Settings. In my experience, there Is NO difference in using GE-Proton7-37 (recommended by the Guide) and Proton Experimental.
Performance on lowest settings 1080p with the TF-51 was pretty bad, around 2-7 FPS. This isn't surprising to me tho, as I only have a i7-10510U (with a Mesa iGPU) without any dedicated GPU in my Laptop.
TL;DR Can't recommend if you actually own other Modules (like me) because those apparently don't work currently. On my Hardware, it wouldn't be enjoyable even with my paid modules.
