DOOM Eternal

Must be one of the unlucky few where none of the fixes/workaround change performance.

Audio:Crackling

Crackling fixed with the PULSE setting mentioned elsewhere, but sometimes broke between changing Proton versions.

Windowing:Other

Alt tab causes black screen when reentering, have to close and restart

Performance:Significant Performance Problems

No matter Esync, compute settings, or ANY graphics settings changes, even on 460 drivers, across multiple proton versions (5.0, 5.13, GE5.9, GE6.1), FPS constantly remains in the 30-45 range when loaded into a level (~60 in main menu).

Will try with different kernel version at some point but not sure otherwise.

DOOM Eternal

Just make sure to play with all the workarounds suggested in this and other reports.

Audio:Crackling

Fixed with PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=60

Windowing:Other

Alt tab in full screen causes black screen when tabbing back.

Performance:Significant Performance Problems

On some nvidia systems, there is a driver bug which causes the game to not allocate VRAM properly. You can confirm this by seeing the in-game settings UI's VRAM display, then comparing by running nvidia-smi in terminal and seeing far less assigned VRAM to the game.

At the time of writing, the workaround for this is to set __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=bla in your launch options, instead of __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia.

If frames are oddly low, try turning off antialiasing

Tinker Steps:Other

Turn antialiasing off if frames are low for no discernible reason

Performance:Significant Performance Problems

Seems it refuses to use dGPU, but on modern hardware it seems antialiasing is the biggest performance hit.

Tried all sorts of GPU settings in a previous report to try and force GPU usage, to no avail. But fiddling with settings until things became stable worked.

Subverse

Audio:Crackling

Audio crackling on the Early Access release seems to be a problem for Windows users too.

Another bug affecting Windows users as well is a black screen on launch. For proton, the workaround is to use Proton 6.1-GE-2 AND do the media foundation fix for the game https://github.com/z0z0z/mf-installcab

Doesn't seem a common problem, but game ignoring GPU selection makes standard resolutions unplayable when using the iGPU.
